Lemur-lemur-lemur-lemur-lemur-lemur! (The word has lost all meaning.)

So tonight I just opened to a random page in my Bio Anthro book, and it was a big drawing of a tree with a bunch of different monkey-like creatures in it.

My first thought was, wow, that's a lot of lemurs.

My second thought was, wait, how do I know what a lemur is? Who the fuck has ever heard of a lemur and why do I seem to know everything about them?

My third thought was, wow, these all look like what I apparently picture a lemur to be, but they're all very different looking animals. Three different types of lemur-ish monkey-type deals, it seems.

Then I read the caption: "This drawing shows three lemurid species."

I think I might be smart.
