    If chimps ever take over the world and have a space program they’ll send grass to Uranus.

    Like Voyager II leaving the solar system, humans passed Idiocracy and kept going. At current velocity, is it possible this is a papyrus tabloid headline from 25 years in the future?

      That’s one chimp’s kink, not a trend.

      Also, I did not expect to write that sentence.

        “Meanwhile, in the other group, a male named Juma was identified as the possible innovator of the daring new grass-in-butt variation, which spread to most of his group mates within a week, according to the study.”

        So apparently it wasn’t just his kink. Most of them had a twig up their ass, lol
