Title: The Ikea Monkey Trial: Trial of the Century!
Post by: Malthus on June 04, 2013, 07:46:12 AM
In 1925, in the Trial of the Century, the Scopes Monkey Trial ruled on whether humans were really monkeys.

In 2013, in the Trial of the Century, the Ikea Monkey Trial will rule on whether monkeys are really humans.

It's better than the Jodi Arias trial at least. Also: fewer monkeys.

Apes have no tail.

So, assume the crazy Ikea Monkey woman gets her monkey back - what are the chances it will rip her face off at some point?  :hmm:

IKEA monkey lady should not have lied to the court about where she got the monkey. Get caught bare-facedly lying, and generally speaking you are fucked.  :lol:
