Ikeas Homonkulus

Undoubtedly, you were riveted by our "Going Bananas in Canada" post earlier this week.

Because you Mistress MJ can't get enough of this story, you'll want to see this...

More on the painting here.

The monkey was moved to a primate sanctuary but in a news update, Infomaniac has learned that his owner, who was fined for breaking the city's prohibited-animal bylaw, is seeking to regain custody.

"He belongs to his mother. He's not a monkey, he's my son."

  11. I remember that poor woman who had her face ripped off by a demented monkey *shudders*. Animals like this need to be with others of its kind, up a tree in the jungle or wherever they come from in the wild.

  14. Is it possible that you Bitches are even funnier when I'm drunk?

    I would ponder this question if I didn't need to get to bed.
