    Try your local McDonalds.

    Guaranteed 30 Chinese and (if the other mackers managers are like my old boss from when i worked there) a baboon and all.

    I could rustle up a Baboon. But Chinamen are fairly scarce these days.

    Nobody uses baboons, you just tape a load of racoons together...

    What do you do if you want raccoons?

    Or get a skunk and paint his stripey tail with stripes going the other way.

    if you were stuck could you stick a panda on the Atkins diet
    for a few weeks and paint him up like a Baboon then ?

    I think we were meant to ask 'Why the Baboon?' and he'd have replied 'See, no one cares about the Chinese'

    That's just rediculous. Taping some raccoons together is far more plausable.

    He really underestimates AH then.

    Raccoons don't look like raccoons on camera though...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭Hail 2 Da Chimp


    Maybe you could just paint a cat or something...

    That's from an email i got a while back-it was a picture of an ad in a newspaper saying the exact same thing. Still fvckin hilarious though.

    Aparently the camera adds ten pounds ! So they look like fat raccoon tourists !

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji

    Exactly. Completely lame. OP: Die.

    Ha Ha Ha! Painted cat! I get jokes...

    Its from The Framley Examiner. Have a gawk at the archive --> classifieds.

    Monty Python-esque, been reading it for years.:D

    Another sample from classified ads:

    FOR SALE: Pencil Sharpener in the shape of a cement mixer, also is size of cement mixer, hence £215.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,799 ✭✭✭Tha Gopher


    I really have to watch Python, my workmates constantly have their little in jokes related to it :confused:

    OP- did you think of how much this would cost? 30 Chinese lads arent going to take part for free, they will demand payment.

    You were looking at a minimum of 20 quid between the 30 of them.

    *ba dum tish*

    Aye, the black coat in the corner there, thanks very much......

    I thought it was Hamsters people used tape on.:confused:

    I was wondering wtf they'd be doin' with a balloon...
