Monkey Math

[dr_tectonic]

kung_fu_monkey is in the bathroom dealing with a nasty zit.

Me: Ouch. That looks painful.

Jerry: I broke a knuckle. This is nothing.

Me: But pain plus pain equals more pain!

Jerry: Pain plus pain equals monkey!

"We are actors! We're the opposite of people! We do things on-stage, things which are only supposed to happen...off."

So, OK, look, I find the weird inversion of privacy that blogging makes ubiquitous as unjustifiably compelling as the next guy, maybe more, but even I don't actually find a discussion of your boyfriend's zits to actually _build_ interest.

Apropos of nothing, yay for quoting Tom Stoppard and my favorite play.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Nono, the previous post was intended to build interest for Jerry's post about breaking his finger.

This post was just to relate a story that highlights how amusing he is, which I really couldn't figure out how to do without referring to the pimple. (Believe me, I tried.)

Nonesense! The zit story is totally gratuitous. It's like those things they do on local news programs: "Household cleaners maybe be killing your family even as we speak. More at eleven."

Not that I'm complaining. The discussion has been worth it, at least.
