I’m going to assume that’s a fair price

What was this supposed to be?
Actually, I’m pretty sure it’s exactly what it says. Primates are perfectly-normal foods in some parts of the world.
it’s bamboo actually, that was the only spelling error in the store
bamboo
and i’m glad it was just bamboo, I don’t think the city of Philadelphia would take kindly to ape meats
*imitating a troll* HOW IS THIS ENGRISH?
*continuing imitation* I HATE this website so much! I take that back. I USED TO hate it, but it’s SO much WORSE than it was even when I HATED it!!! It’s WORSE today than it was YESTERDAY!!!! In fact, I can tell it’s gotten WORSE just since I started writing this!!! WHY, oh WHY do you force me to read this stuff every day????
aaannddd. Cut. your hired. 25000 seem alright Mr. B? oh and OMGROFL at the name change!
Why do you want to cut his hired?
ZOMG IT’S JOHNB! MrB, MrB, I LOVED you in “Ridiculing Monkey People”! Can I have your autograph? Oh, the girls at work will NEVER believe this!
AAAWWH!! SHUT UP! You dont have a job, and you just snuck on stage. if i get arreseted its your fault, hes not giving you his autograph, now get back in the basement and sew me a swaeter.
Awwwwwwwww, Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad…
FINE u can make me a sweater or….
Get back in here and make meh a sandwhich.
Right, right, one sandwich, coming up… made with a special pinch of love… (and some of the special weird sauce I keep in the titanium bottle and handle with asbestos gloves, mum’s personal recipe…)
Oooohhhhhh! I Can Has One Too?
Dont put no uranusum in my sammich.
One sandwhich pleaz. No mayo, mustard, or titan uranus please.
Uh, I don’t think they were shooting for “baboon” here… It was pointed out the goal was to advertise ” bamboo,” presumably shoots; in the funny-monkey nation of Philadelphia. This is home-grown, we didn’t even have to leave the trailer park for this one.
I’m absolutely certain that’s about right; if you bother to read the stuff just below the pic Hebime, you’ll see that it states that the pic was taken in Philidelphia. I only know of 2 forms of Philly, the City in the USA, and the cream cheese!
You encourage us to “leave the trailer park,” as if we all lived in one, and yet you clearly don’t spend much time reading the posts or even the captions on the pictures. As Dr. Handle recently pointed out, you clearly experience only consternation on this site, and feel compelled to put anyone down who has fun with the mangled language, whatever and wherever the source, so what are you doing here??? I’ve explained to you time and time again why my finding things funny here has nothing to do with putting down any foreign cultures or people. I’ve also taken the time to point out that many of the people here are well educated, intelligent, and erudite, which you continue to ignore. If you don’t have any fun here, and don’t listen to anything anyone says, and don’t have any respect for any of us here, WHY NOT LEAVE???
Look, you get so worked up about people having a bit of a giggle, I just have to ask you something: are you from Unauthorised Merriment Hell, or do you has a PMS?
*imitatiing a troll* <—- It means im joking dumbass.
Is that how much monkey gland sauce is these days?
What, you don’t find baboon in the produce section of your supermarket? Me, I’m headed to Philadelphia. Baboon at $2.99 a pound is a steal!
Those Mofos are smart! When you buy baboon, you’re not paying for the sweet monkey meat, you’re paying for baboon hunter’s lives! Is that worth less than 299 pennies to you!?
Is a baboon hunter’s life worth less than 299 pennies to me? Uh, can I think about that one for a while?
Sure as hell is to me.
i’r baboon!
NO! MAKE MONKEY FOOD
Dat’s nuthin’. The Piggly Wiggly down the street has baboon for $2.12/lb. And they have rhesus cold cuts, too!
And what’s their price on a wiggly piggly?
You can get better deals at the Hoggly Woggly by the tracks.
I’ve always had trouble finding hoggly wogglies by the tracks. I follow their scent.
Im really in the mood for some chickly-wickly wings right one.
So you prefer the right ones over the left ones? I guess that makes you a right winger.
Mmmm… Rhesus Pieces!
Somebody’s simmerin’ simians.
Maybe they are Sumerian!
In summer?
Sum are, Sumarient.
Why are we talking about math?! I came here to have fun!
Math is fun, especially when performed by Sumerians while they are simmerin’ simians in the summertime!
I like potatoes.
Potatoes are good, but Catnip is better.
Is that for a live baboon? I could use a baboon trained to act as a butler…
You didn’t really need your face anyway, did you?
With some orange spray paint you might even upgrade him to be your librarian.
Trunk monkey!
Have you seen the videos too?
From now on, I will be……”TRUNK MONKEY“!!
I will destroy ALL trolls! Just say *Trunk Monkey!*
That may not take much training. A baboon probably knows the drill.
Then he could be a dentist!
Save the turkeys. For this Thanksgiving, use baboon. Same taste, cheaper price. Your guest won’t know the difference!
P.S. We advice that your guests be blindfolded so that they won’t freak out at the sight of baboon. Also don’t serve until they are already drunk so that they won’t differentiate the taste.
And for southerners, they have a special on baducken.
What did Hannibal say about dishing up flautist? “I’m afraid that if I tell you what it is, you’ll be afraid to try it”.
So if you get baboons drunk, they taste like turkey?
No, they taste like SPAM!!
The fat ones taste like Greece.
It’s supposed to be edible young bamboo shoots.
Bamboo, baboon – baboon, bamboo? No worry, same thing, I make tasty.
Well, now, they may be more tender, but eating the young’uns is just mean!
I cook like that, too.
PoodleGroomer, how about a brisket recipe? ( I wanna see what I can do with this side of baboon.)
You not cook baboon franks?
No problem, we cook baboons whatever their names were.
I try to avoid cooking Baboon…its hard to find a good wine to pair it with.
Obviously, you’d have to go with a Beaujolais, preferably one from around the village of Chazay-sur-Azergue.
ooohh, exotic! And to think I was shocked when I saw Horse on sale at the supermarket in Paris.
I think that was Amsterdam. Oh, you said HORSE…
Ah, this takes me back – my grandmother used to do an amazing whole roasted baboon for special family Sunday lunches. it would be presented on a great big platter, with a vervet monkey stuffed in its mouth, and the centrepiece was the great big red arse in the middle of the dish, garnished with a daffodil. My brother and I used to argue over who would get the tail.
Once you lick it, it’s yours. *shudder*
What a shame she didn’t put an orang in the baboon’s mouth.
It wouldn’t fit (studiously ignores truly dreadful pun). Baboons sometimes eat vervet monkeys if they catch them. Besides which, baboons are found in Africa, whereas orangutans are found in Indonesia, so the two would not normally encounter each other. Honestly, where’s your geography, DnT?
Picky, picky. I didn’t say the baboon had to catch the orang.
Anyway, most of my geography is history.
Actually sounds a lot like our Special Day here in the U.S. Did the grown-ups get wasted?
The annual Extended Clan Gathering was very much like that – the wimmenfolk would congregate in the kitchen to bitch about the menfolk and swill cheap moselle, whilst the menfolk would play poker outside or in the garage, drinking, and arguing about incidents that took place on the football field 40 years previously (for anyone who knows Aussie Rules, my grandfather and a great-uncle played for South Melbourne, whilst another two great-uncles played for Collingwood – make for some very interesting drunken “discussions”).
It was supposed to be “Bamboo”
Maybe you should read some of the earlier posts…
This person left early posts on the subject, SS.
I know, but he should try to see that he already said that! He is being very redundant, and he needs to eat cake.
Very redundant is an oxymoron. Sorry. Thanks for the cake, it’s delicious.
I made it from another one of your mum’s recipes…
Uhoh, I wish you’d told me sooner… I could have warned you!
About……?
Surely, the ingredients should have tipped you off? The eye of newt and so forth? The bloodstains on the cover of the cookbook?
She was a Potions Major that got thrown out of Hogwarts.
The lie is delicious and moist!
Where is this place? I love me some bamboon. and a great value. who needs hamburger at 3.99 per pound? Bamboon is only $2.99 per pound. Don’t eat more chickin . . . . . . . Try bamboon!!!
