Monkey sperm alert Science has finally seen the light -- the fact that monkeys willl rule the world.

In a feat of scientific achievement, researchers from the universities of Pennsylvania and California have managed to produce monkey sperm in mice. Oooooh, monkeys the size of mice.... with four asses!

  • And then the mouse escapes and mates with another mouse. And then we have mutant mouskeys running around. And then anarchy! Sometimes science scares me.
  • jim_t, nice Southpark ref. If they ever get the go-ahead to start putting human sperm in mice just, y'know, because it would be cool, I am so out of here.
  • If they ever get the go-ahead to start putting human sperm in mice... ...it makes me worry about my past as a sperm donor... (Yep, it's ALL Wendell's Fault)
  • wendell, you're still and always faultless to me.
  • I'm waiting for the day I finally manage to crossbreed octopi and spiders. They both have 8 legs, they'll be easy to crossbreed. Then I can crossbreed sharks and cheetahs. Then I crossbreed the spoctopus and the chesark together to get the ultimate world conquering monster/perfect nanny the speetoark.

  • I'm SO glad I'm not consuming anything right now. Pez, do you think it would make a good pet?
  • I'm waiting for the day I finally manage to crossbreed octopi and spiders. They both have 8 legs, they'll be easy to crossbreed. Then I can crossbreed sharks and cheetahs. But sharks have no legs, and cheetahs four - what makes you think crossbreeding them will be possible.
  • Mate, sharks are up for it.
  • I'm worried about some over-enthusiastic geneticist misunderstanding the term 'spider monkey'. 'Leaf monkey' I'm less concerned about; they'd probably move a lot slower.
  • crossbreed octopi and spiders I don't know if the legs would be strong enough, you may have to add wheels.
