YAY Debetesse!
Except on the bourbon.
Now I'm going to think of the nit comb as a primate grooming ritual.
Pretty much is.
One interesting exception is the gelada. They're close relatives of baboons, and live in the Ethiopian highlands. They're grazers, the only grazers in the primate family (except possibly my brother at age four). Other grazers tend to look like cows or deer (or geese) and crop grass with their teeth (or bills). But geladas, being monkeys, collect it by scooching around on their butts and grabbing the grass with their hands.
That means, however, that their hands are preoccupied, and so they don't do as much grooming. Instead, they maintain social bonds by chattering to each other.
Their style of locomotion also means that their butts are otherwise occupied. While baboons get that swollen pink butt thing happening, geladas display their sexual readiness with a bare patch of skin on their chests.
I am picturing the image of Steve Carell from 40-Year-Old Virgin that I recklessly Google imaged.
Why do I never remember safe search? So much junk I wasn't intending to see.
Nilly, if you happen to duck in here for a bit, I'm so sorry for your loss. Much peace to you and your family.
I am pretty sure our darling Nilly will be unavailable for several days, but I am also so sorry to hear of this.
I wish all strength and peace to you and your family.
(And thank you, Shir, for letting us know.)
Nilly, I'm so sorry for your loss. Tons of ~ma for you and yours.
ita, I hope today is better for you.
Oh, Nilly. I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, Nilly.
My condolences to Nilly and her family and friends.

My building stinks. Seriously. I walked in and the security guard was all "oh, she smells it too." Uh, yeah. It's a sewage-esque/ stale human funk. It's just starting to reach my office, so I've opened the window.
I'm so sorry, Nilly.
