Bonobos are chimps. Republicans are humans.

Clearly chimps have the higher IQ.

Hmmmm... extended infantile and juvenile growth patterns? Can we say "neoteny"?

Humans first, chimps second.

That's funny, because yours is the first I've seen today.

It's also the first "I seen" I've seen today.

Unless ... have I been trolled?

thought so.

So we masturbate more. *shrug* Case closed.

The monkeys probably have something wrong with the hat that gives them their intelligence.

Pedants, unlike you, tend to be correct.

'Sic' is used to indicate that any mistakes were present in the original text and were not the work of the quote-talking-guy. Its use is not limited to spelling errors.

I hate every chimp I see, from chimpan-a to chimpan-z.

wildcardjack		2012-12-19 09:57:51 PM

despite sharing 98 percent of the DNA with chimps

First off, we also share about 40% of DNA with wheat.

Second, this low quality writing is indicative of cheap labor. It's a click fodder site that's probably using writers in the Philippines who'll knock out a crap article like this for $2.

No.. ITS. " It's " is a contraction for IT IS. 'IT IS USE' is grammatically incorrect.

Yeah, but the last time I went into the Politics tab, someone threw poop at me.

I know, right? It's almost like there's a context that makes the second racist and the first one not racist.

Tyranicle		2012-12-19 10:25:35 PM

Monkeys don't like long words and sh*t.

Danger Avoid Death		2012-12-19 10:28:33 PM

FTFA: Thy found that chimpanzees and humans both had much more brain development in early life than macaques.

Personally, macaque developed a brain of it's own during puberty.

MrMorden		2012-12-19 10:33:32 PM

It's Me Bender:

In a historical and cultural vacuum, those images would be morally equivalent. However, we do not live in a historical or cultural vacuum. Here's some help:
