Case in point. From the front page of www.nytimes.com.
According to advisers and court records, Michael Jackson's wealth is being consumed by lawsuits and an appetite for monkeys, Ferris wheels and surgery.
Regardless of my innate recoil at that man's name, this is still a funny fucking subhead.
I think it's all money well-spent, in case he has to have his brain transplanted into Bubbles' body and run off to join a travelling carnival in order to escape the Law.

I think he already did this some 10 years ago. The current Michael Jackson body is being controlled via remote by Jermaine, Tito and the othertwo six.
Dude. Monkey never gets old.
You can shock it, spank it, puzzle it, bar it, see it, do it--monkey is the monkey wrench of the funny.
Yeah—everything but get the furry little sucker offa the Buffistas' backs.
I think the monkeys are keeping Gus away.
Honestly, monkey just isn't funny anymore, even to those of us for whom it was never funny. And I know that makes no sense, but really, all the fun is gone. Monkey. Monkey. Monkey. See? It's just flat. You guys killed the monkey.
Cindy hates my tag. sniff
I think the monkeys are keeping Gus away.
There is in fact a travel book called (approx.) "Do Not Touch the Monkey: Things I Learned About Travelling Abroad".
Gus, by another name, or a book he needed before going?
Proposal:
That we open this year's Goodbye to 2003/Thank You to Secret Santas thread as soon as we've moved to our new server and agreed on a name.
The reason -- I came home after T-day weekeng to a mystery gift from an anonymous Buffista! I can't be the only one, so it looks like time to open out annual thank you thread.
Second, although I don't think we need to vote on it because it's been a standing holiday thread for a couple of years now. It more a matter of reopening a temporarily closed thread, like F2F.
