• Whoa! /Joey Whatshisname
• I don't even know what you're talking about, but could I borrow that chin, I've got something stuck in my horse's hoof.
• 'Rebellious phase'? What'd she do, drink half a wine cooler?
• Monkeyfilter: pointless crap Quick, let's all make jokes about her vagina!
• Neigh Neigh Neigh!!! Whoa BRUTUS!!! OMG, I'm glad they didn't do a profile shot of her.. BOW WOW!!
• Can I use her vagina to fix ole Dobbin's hoof? He's limpin something terrible.
• it says she was working on her Ph.D. Um, which I am too. Y'know I'm in the conceptual phase. Get it!? Baby! Conception . . okay, fine.
• I'm working on a Ph.D. in Advanced Cunnilingus. That's right...I said advanced.
• Read: he does the cyrillic alphabet.
• I heard rocket moved beyond Cyrillic and is now working on fictictious languages such as Klingon and the Dark Tongue of Mordor.
• *fictitious
• I thought the magic people on TV never grew up and had normal lives. This has come as a blow.
• What a weirdo... shouldn't she be robbing liquor stores or something?
• This is shit.
• Holy crapoley. According to IMDb, she actually got the PhD in 2004. In addition, she's also adopted a whale, a wolf and a manatee. I bet she's going to start treating them differently now that she has a kid of her own. Poor adopted animals.
• You're supposed to keep the house quiet, with the baby sleeping, and gently - slowly, bring in the whale to get its scent. they should get along fine.
• So,uh, rocket88, when you reach the "Chinese characters" stage of your degree, uh, let me know, okay?
• That's a whole new sitcom in itself. 'My family of mammals'
• And if you put manatee gates across your doorways to make sure it has its own "territory," it feels less threatened. Helpful household tip.
• It doesn't say she has a Ph.D, it says she worked for one. /pedant Jesus, what a pointless post!
• OK, she got it. Ewwww. Neuroscience!
• It's still a shit post. Where's SideDish recently?
• (2001) Music director for the UCLA Jewish a capella group "Shir Bruin" I'd love to show up to a concert wearing a Bruins sweater. Just because I'm a jackass. Whose jokes aren't funny.
• Oh -- and I assume that babyproofing the house means getting rid of the pet wolf.
• "Note: scary pic is of Blossom, not of the baby." Translation: the woman is ugly, therefore I can make fun of her in a FPP on Monkeyfilter, because, you know, I'm so good looking. "from the Department of WTF: Blossom has a Ph.D in neuroscience." Translation: Ugly girl from a double decade-old sitcom actually has a *brain*. Woweee. It's interesting because she's fugly. In other news, Danicar McKellar has a PHD in math, but she is 'attractive' so not FPP material. This post is shit.
• *cries*
• 
• Yay, pmdboi! That is awesome! Everyone else: stop making Tracicle cry!
• Brilliant, pmd. I think this is the birth of a fine new cliche.
• Aw, shucks. I can't take credit, though... I saw it on Fark yesterday.
• In that case, it sucks.
• Translation: the woman is ugly, therefore I can make fun of her in a FPP on Monkeyfilter, because, you know, I'm so good looking. So we shouldn't make fun of ugly people, because They're People Too. Translation: Ugly girl from a double decade-old sitcom actually has a *brain*. Woweee. It's interesting because she's fugly. So we shouldn't be interested in ugly people, because they're not worth it. In other news, Danicar McKellar has a PHD in math, but she is 'attractive' so not FPP material. So we should be interested only in pretty people, and talking about ugly people is a waste of time and worth getting envious and catty over. I'm confused. Lead me, O spiritual guide to what is acceptable and right. (I don't care about the post one way or the other; I'm seriously confused by that comment.)
• Also, Danica McKellar not getting enough nerdwankage? Are you on a different internet from me? A while back some chick won a math competition or something (I don't remember, offhand, because I don't care) and the wanking wouldn't stop.
• Monkeyfilter: the wanking wouldn't stop.
• Wurwilf, you forgot to turn on your Sarcasm-o-meter (TM). Turn it on and try a re-read.
• When I watched the sitcom she was on, I never thought of her as especially unconventional looking - she was thin, blonde(ish), and ok, well maybe that nose wasn't a typical tv nose. I assumed any elements of awkwardness had been specifically cast for, with the thought of portraying a teenage girl going through a phase of life that is awkward for many. In hindsight, I read that critics did take issue with her looks back then too.
• It's not that it doesn't make literal sense, it's that the parts don't hang together relative to one another. But it's not a big deal.
• I thought maybe the confusion arose from the "thought criminal" in one thread becoming the much-derided "thought police" in the next. Or is this some sort of "every post is shit?" performance art piece?
• I don't understand those of you who think Ms. Bialik is *unattractive*. I'm not seeing it. Your standards are impossibly high. You must truly be ubergods whose blinding pulchritude would make any mortal cower with awe. I knew there was a reason I didn't post a picture of myself in my Monkeyfilter t-shirt. A pointless, forced post combined with mean-spirited cattiness. Home run!
• I for one think Danica McKellar *is* FPP worthy.
• Actually, I thought Fes was playing off the "16 chilluns'" thread at first. I don't know the show or the actress, so maybe it's something else. Let's check the scores: Meh . . . Enh . . . Bzuh?
• Kewl. So I can I start posting pictures of male monkeys, with pointed commentary on their attributes? Bet that will stay up.
• I don't think Bialik is a monkey (or MoFite), but if you mean a similarly-styled post about a former male actor, I would think that your post would stay up, provided it doesn't contain a self-link or link to goatse or the like.
• Rocket88, you're hopeless and above all pointless.
• 
• Chyren is the lil' ball of hate.
• Big fat hairy ball of hate, actually.
• Uh, cynnbad and grover96, are you channelling smallish bear? rocket88's comment seemed just another attempt at humor, and I have to echo Chyren's opinion that this is a stupid post - and, his manatee movie seemed sympathetic to the poor beast, not hateful. Knowing Chy, I'm sure he felt the pain of every looped collision that animal is going through. What in the world is going on here? Is there some cosmic law that we have to go through a period of craziness every few months? Can we go off into our neutral corners and meditate on community and respect?
• Hey. As long as she doesn't have a goddamn beard, I'd hit it.
• Monkeyfilter: hopeless and above all pointless.
• Nobody but Chy claims that she's ugly. It is an unfortunate picture. Though blessedly beardless.
• Hey! Leave beards out of it! *brushes furiously*
• Well, the "scary pic" wording to me heavily implies a bad picture, hence unnatractive picture. I'm sure the manatee didn't hurt itself *that* much.
• Chy's ugly!
• I don't think McKellar has a PhD in Mathematics. I believe it is a B.A., although she has a theorem named after her (as per her imdb page). She does, on the other hand, have an Erdos-Bacon number. That is better than a PhD.
• In case you wondered, as I did.
• y'all are still pigs for picking out a demi-celebrity in order to comment on her a-typical appearance. You are the catfish of the internet.
• path, relevance?
• By that I just meant that snotty little comments are celebrated here. It's just when we get too big for our britches... I know, I just made myself sick even advancing this...
• Monkeyfilter: snotty little comments are celebrated here. Sorry, couldn't resist...
• Um, offlinkey mentioned that she had an Erdos-Bacon number in the comment directly above mine. So my snoottly little comment is is that you might want to read the whole thing before you get offended. The comment you complained about was not snotty in any way.
• Has it come to that?
• I'm getting lost here. Rocket, can you bail me out? What the hell is she on about??
• Seems like a bunch of important-seeming acronyms, and I'm out of my league. Only because my league is elsewhere.
• What's erdos-bacon? WHAT HAVE I DONE???
• Is it kosher?! I think not!
• I know it's the weekend, but cynnbad, you don't have to keep MoFi going on your own.
• OK, I understand. I'll go away. Everyone else, have a good time! Yours truly, Losers Anonymous.
• Shut up, bitch, and get off my network.
• Cynnbad, I'm repeating the link which I posted earlier as "in case you wondered" with a better identifier: Erdos-Bacon numbers. It related only to offlinkey's comment that Blossom had one of those numbers and that they're better than a PhD. Not an acronym, just an extension of the "six degrees of Kevin Bacon" meme. Just click, and all will be revealed.
• Oh my garage, what happened? Sorry, I'll link next time. I thought I had seen a discussion of Erdos-Bacon numbers here before. Cynnbad- Erdos was a prolific mathematician. He wrote so much that there is a bit of a joke to have an Erdos number- like path said, a Six Degrees of Separation thing. Bacon, well, you know about Kevin Bacon... The select few in this world who have an Erdos-Bacon number are 'related' in some fashion to both Erdos and Bacon. Hence Danica McKellar has an Erdos-Bacon number by virtue of her Hollywood connections, and her mathematics ons as well.
• .
• You need to understand that I'm profoundly math-inabled. Prior abuse and all. But I get the deal about about the degrees from Kevin Bacon and whatnot. He was in Grease, right? Is that separation? I'm missing this whole deal. No wonder I don't play the lotto.
• What's up, cynnbad? I'm not at all clear what your getting pissed off about at this point.
• ...ohhh-kaaaay. Anyways, I used to watch _Blossom_ because I was a young teenaged girl and thought Blossom was cool. It was also nice to see someone who looks like a regular person on tv. I always enjoy seeing child actors, who have every right to be screwed up adults (is anyone else watching the train wreck that is Breaking Bonaduce?), grow up and have actual good lives.
• Sorry for the pissfest. A bad day followed by a worse night. Something set me off Sorry,all. I should shut up for a long time.
• Just so long as your okay.:>
• And if you're not, it's ok as long as we get your stuff. But only if it's good stuff. I'm kidding; I hope things are improving, and I can relate... last week, in the same twenty minutes both an important deal tanked, and I found out a really good cat buddy had been killed. Suck City. Don't shut up though; have some banana pudding with banana tea. That'll fix most things. If not, all us Monkeys can have a tremendous fight and throw things at heads and out windows; that invariably cheers me up. In fact, I've clocked that rocket88 bastard with an eggbeater, and have a stash of other flingable household items ready to take on all comers! Bring iiiiiiiit!
• banana tea? Ugh.
• Shamina sounds a lot like me several months back, so I'll tell you what I have learned. Mofi is very looks-conscious and very proud of its easy-on-the-eyes members. The picture threads are massive and monumentally important; they go on for months, and for a while there were constant exhortations to post in them. That's how important looks are here. However, and this is the important part, if you're ugly, people don't give you grief. They just leave you alone and go about their business, grooming one another and crowing about how hot they all are. It's a benign sort of vanity. They don't throw rocks at ugly chicks or anything. It's just an important thing to them and something to be proud of; they don't use it as a weapon. I respect that. Bottom line: don't worry about it. Unless you're out to be internet-popular, it's not going to affect you.
• Quidnunc is internet-poopular.
• Yeah!
• Bleah. You know what I meant. To me there's a difference between "I am spooging over this comment because it's hilarious and/or insightful" and "I am spooging over this comment because I have a crush on the poster." But anyway, both are harmless and I don't see what's so horrible about what I said.
• Huh? I thought pete and I were needling quid, nothing more. It wasn't a comment on the thread or anyone's comments in particular, just a cheap shot at quid for no real reason other than habit and personal enjoyment. My apologies if it was taken to mean something beyond that, Wurwilf.
• But I stand by quid being 'internet-poopular.
• Heh heh. Poop.
• Also hit butt smells and he likes to smell his own butt . . . but still should totally have been Pope.
• OK. You used the same term I did (well, almost the same) so I thought it was needling me somehow. Gotcha.
• I don't know what all of this silly nonsensical banter has accomplished in the short period of time in which it was originally posted to this seemingly incredulous group of people loitering about and yapping on about who ate what and what ate who, rather curious something, still I found it strangely odd that no one mentioned the historical significance of the underlying tragedy which humans purposefully dig out and toss at each other, did you get that or do I have to repeat myself again before someone else posts another blah blah about how Blossom and her nose fail to meet the beauty qualifications of corporate institutions mandated by the all-powerful and mighty dollar bill, which I think smells kinda funny sometimes, but then again I like the smell of cinnamon buns drizzled with molten high fructose syrup whipped with air and hydrogenated castor oils…. What was I saying? /Six rant
• I'm gonna go hide behind Moneyjane.
• Mind the backswing! I hear she has some heavy-duty frying pans. *doesn't have a crush on the poster*
• Not meaning any offence to the poster, just not in mid-crush, regardless of poster's easy-on-the-eyes factor or Eros-Pecan number.
• Finally, I feel compelled to say the following: "You go Wurwilf!" Any outstanding chips I want sent his/her way.
• fish tick: I'm just there for the view.
• Well, then. I am amazed that this post has generated such ill feelings! Less than a week before, after all, we felt no moral compunctions against speculating about Tom Cruise's sexual peccadilloes, nor about Katie Holmes vagina and the goings-on therein, but apparently "scary pic" is beyond the pale. Please accept my apologies. Be assured it will not happen again.
• Yes! Pay up, chumps. chimps. Pay up, chimps.
• We just expected more interesting links from such an interesting monkey, Fes-o.
• But I thought it was a great post!
• ♪♫ In my opinionation, the sun is gonna surely shine! ♪♫
• I'm not channeling anyone. Just saying that Chy hates 98% of the post on the MF and the other 2% are his.
• No, he hates his own, too.
• True, he's a malicious and venom-belching devil of all that is spiteful - endlessly vomiting his acidic bile into the innocent eyeballs of newborn babes. On the other hand, he's just so damn cute!
• Those newborn babes had it coming.
• Aaaaw, I just wanna eat you all up!
