Well, If You Lived In A Cage...

today is sunday, so i am trying to take it easy. i remember those days before november 2004 when i spent my sunday mornings watching the 'news' and 'debate' shows and thinking that people could and would make a change. now it's just easier living in a world of fantasy and celebrity - rock on "best week ever"!
weekend distilled? friday my good friend reb calls me and we get to chatting about something and at some point she is telling me about a movie she watched about a family that somehow came across a chimpanzee. chimps, she explained to me, can grow to have the mentality of a five year old and so the family decided to adopt the chimpanzee. it turns out that chimps can really act up and (shock, horror, dismay) are even known to throw faeces when angry. reb then went on to tell me about a friend of a friend of a relative (or something) who, with his friends, takes pictures of his turds and shares them with the aforementioned friends. and thus, because there is always a reason things are brought up, this is how men and chimps are exactly the same. and this is why we can't understand men; 'cause they think like chimps. good enough. she asked, "why would anyone adopt a chimp when they can just have a man?" why indeed? damned if i know. but when my good friend kai was complaining about how she was angry with a man she knows and how he was not getting why he was in the dog house and not about to be let out of it, i had an answer. apparently, it's because they think like chimps, at least he's not throwing his faeces around.
