"Monkey in Brazil drinks rum and chases bar patrons with knife"

The capuchin monkey drank remnants of cachaça, a distilled spirit popular in Brazil, from glasses around the bar. The animal then chased the men in the pub with a foot-long knife but left the women “to drink in relative peace”, according to the Mirror.
“It was a bar staff oversight that ended with the monkey drinking some rum and taking the knife,” fire department Lt Col Saul Laurentino told aRede.

Mafioso monkey should always remember to "drop the knife, and pick up the guacamole."

Donald Trump was heard complaining... "Everybody wants ta get inta the act!"

You saw the gif of the crab with a paring knife? *finds* Jesus. There's a lot of them. Crabs all over the place with knives. The live lobster in the sink has a chef's knife.

If it were America the monkey would have a gun.

My first thought was, is this South Carolina?

I finally read that lecture you linked to the other day. It was fascinating, like i thought it would be.

Thanks.

"...it was a bar staff oversight...."

And what if the monkey had done what comes naturally and chewed a bar patron's face off?

Hey, maybe something good will come out of the idiot affection for monkeys. Like Justin Bieber's face being chewed off. He collects the things. How do I know? One of the unfortunate consequences of reading the British tabloid press.

Now I'm going to stop the amn on the street and tell them to read it ;)

I clicked on a tweet of an ISIS beheading and it wasn't censored. I knew I shouldn't have done it, but I still did it.

From the article:

What an asshole. Was it a female monkey?

The monkeys at the rock of Gibraltar have adapted to the humans as well. They ride up the hill on the tops or backs of cars (hilarious to see a monkey solemnly seated on the top of a cab) and they pick pocket the tourists. Monkeys: They're just like us!

Allen, Allen ... who hurt you?

Go monkey go! Feminism is winz.

"Ricpic is a royal watcher!"

Those twits? Hardly. I read the Brit tabloids because they don't flinch at reporting the total corruption in "the colonies," that would be us. As opposed to our own castrated press.

In New York we are having a rash of monkeys stabbing people lately.

One of them stabbed a busboy who told him to stop begging in the restaurant.

As summer approaches, I'm becoming curious about cachaça.

Any recommendations?

Any recommendations?

Don't take a knife to a gunfight is always advisable.

Don't let Cookie anywhere near it.

Same reason I read them. I don't watch the beheading videos however, as the picture of the pilot being burned alive in a cage still haunts me.

In the "crabs with knives' category, still shots of knives being publicly wielded in the hands of the small minded, drunk with power barbarians, pictured in The Daily Mail article about the 15 year old who was recently executed for listening to Western music are impressive but on second look bear a closer resemblance to crustaceans with chef's knives.

I used to keep a carved set of the three "Hear no evil, See no evil, Speak no evil" monkeys on a bookshelf, but put them in a drawer two years ago. The time for speaking truthfully about barbaric behavior of the brutal, barbarous, brutish, bestial, savage, vicious, wicked, cruel, ruthless, merciless, villainous, murderous, heinous, monstrous, vile, inhuman, infernal, dark, fiendish, diabolical variety is now.
