DARWIN'S THEORY:
A SMART MONKEY
DOESN'T MONKEY AROUND
WITH ANOTHER MONKEY'S MONKEY
This commercial reminds me of the time I got paid for feeding gingerbread cookies covered in marshmallows and gumdrops to orangutans at the zoo for Christmas story I wrote.
The short version: They went batshit crazy for them. One baby orang climbed on top of a large female's coconut-sized head, peeled open her lips and tried to rip one of the cookies from her mouth. The dominant male snorked one down like it was a grape. Just inhaled it like it was a speck.
Two other females were total pigs, running to find their cookies and then storming off to enjoy them alone. Like it was a couple vats of Hagen Daas or something.
So much for Darwin's theory. It was survival of the fattest on that one.
Is this some kind of commentary on what's going to happen when I go start working for beer and monkeys?
