Can you imagine? And those aren't like little friendly Curious George organ grinder monkeys either. The gray one that climbs the tree around the 1:25 mark looks pretty badass. I would be scared to walk the streets at night....

I welcome our new monkey overlords. Who hasn't wanted to fling their own crap at someone and have it be socially acceptable? Cell phone at the movie theater guy? Crap to the head

Am I the only disappointed there weren't more monkeys throwing their own poo in that video?

Me too. Also I was disappointed that I didn't see Dr. Zaius.

Me too. Also I was disappointed that I didn't see Dr. Zaius.

that was the first thing that came to my mind about them taking over.

If you want that, just go to the OS NBA Forum.

Never trust a monkey wearing a fez and a genie vest. 'Tis all.

Yeah, no way in hell would I want to go out at night. I'm not even sure you could get me to go out during the day time.

I can safely say I've never wanted to do that, much less have it be socially acceptable.

I love that the best plan they could come up with to make the Monkeys leave was to use a big stick and sling shots....

Nah, I don't mess with monkeys. Them jawns are vicious. They'll rip your balls off along with everything else. Bite your face off and what not.

Daytime, nighttime, lunchtime, Hanukkah, Rashashana, the night of the series finale of Lost...I don't give a flyin' frig...I will never mess with monkeys.

Monkeys can get pretty crazy. I was taking a class on the Great Battles of the Ancient World, and it started with the "what is warfare" type thing, and the prof detailed where that kind of violent behavior came from. I didn't think Chimps traveled in gangs and would go out and attack some other chimp for no other reason just to bash it and kill it, but they do. It could even be apart of their own family, they just destroy it, brutally. It's hard for me to look at chimps the same.

The damn, dirty apes have struck again....

Monkeys surprisingly proficient at mental arithmetic: study

A college education doesn't give you much of an edge over a monkey when it comes to doing some basic arithmetic, according to a study released Monday that underscores the surprising mental agility of our simian relatives.

In a rapid fire test of mental addition, monkeys performed almost as well as college students, showing they're no slouches when it comes to number crunching.

The macaques got their sums right 76 percent of the time, while the students got the correct answer 94 percent of the time in a series of increasingly challenging maths tests.

"We know that animals can recognize quantities, but there is less evidence for their ability to carry out explicit mathematical tasks, such as addition," said Jessica Cantlon, a researcher at Duke University Center for Cognitive Neuroscience in Durham, North Carolina.

"Our study shows that they can."

The study in the Public Library of Science Biology comes just a couple of weeks after Japanese researchers revealed that young chimps outperformed college students in tests of short-term memory.

The young chimps surprised the Japanese investigators by being able to retrace patterns of numbers flashed up on a computer screen faster than their human rivals.

Re: The monkey takeover of the world has begun

To me an 18% drop is not very close like the article seems to be suggesting.

I mean obviously they're bright, but they'll never take over... at least not while I'm around!
