Monkey Bites Toddler In New York City Supermarket
Ok, which one of you NYC MoFi'ers bit the kid?
Online pay-per-view comics:
Love, death, pigeons, gigantic snatchy hand-things, and brain-bent princesses run amok in Wary Tales. Six fun online comics for $.50 payable thru' Bitpass. Scott McCloud's The Morning Improv is $.25/installment, also via Bitpass. Links via e-sheep's Apocamon (thru' Bitpass too.) Previously discussed over there. Are comic "micropayments" here to stay? Is this a good way to support comics creators directly?

Team America: World Police

Curious George: Big mouths in New York.
No, I'm not referring to verbal behavior. Rather I've been noticing a pattern with typical Caucasian women from the northeast U.S. having larger mouths and fuller lips, compared to those here in Texas.

Jim McDermott: Draft bad! Me support draft!
- This F9/11 star is sure that a military draft is coming if Bush is reelected, and is using that to stir up young people. Oddly, he is also co-sponsoring legislation to reinstate the draft.

mew! mew! tiddles!
As featured in the Metafilter Access thread, people are really crap at drawing cats.
"The Federal Reserve has confirmed our Stock Market Crash forecast by raising the Money Supply (M-3) by crisis proportions,
up another 46.8 billion this past week. What awful calamity do they see?" Amazingly, that article is dated May 30, 2004.
Recent U.S. headlines make you wonder if they didn't have it pegged.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. (via buzzmachine)
On one hand it's his site and he can do whatever he wants but somehow something doesn't feel right about not disclosing this to the readers.

Just in case you were thinking of taking up the Japanese language,
this guy's here to tell you to forget it.
Disinhibition
It's well known that people say and do things in cyberspace that they wouldn't ordinarily say or do in the face-to-face world. They loosen up, feel more uninhibited, express themselves more openly. Researchers call this the "disinhibition effect." It's a double-edged sword.

Family of Faggots.
Meet the Doody family of Woolverhampton. They've been named the Faggot Family of the year by Mr Brain's Pork Faggots.
Meetup Chicago - 8/13 or 8/14? The good folks over in the Blue are tossing around the idea of a meetup the weekend I'm going to be in Chicago (as discussed here and here). Are there Monkeys that are available and would like to either gracefully crash the party or meetup of our own accord?
