that's cute

I would not call it racist. I noticed they went out of their way to compare White people to monkeys and (mostly) avoid any Black human to monkey analogy.

I also thought it was cute.

I'm sure there are some people who will take offense, (and some always do.) But I was raised on the original Saturday Night Live and people like Frank Zappa and George Carlin. If they can't take a joke, (especially one not rooted in hate,) more's the pity for their closed minds.

It was a joke about a monkey comment from way back.

It's racist against humans *gasp*.

Yeah...we're really a bunch of monkeys too clever for our own good.

[phillipalden]

Except monkeys don't have "manifest destiny."

And we all know how important that is.

Monkeys generally have tails. We're apes.

[tori_dobbs]

Yes we are part of the great ape family, but words with a K or K the sound in them are funnier.

Funny.

Not funny.

No, this is funny.
