    I think I read somewhere that monkey's eat their bananas differently to humans. They peel from the opposite end....

    It was mentioned on Pharyngula. They squeeze thr bottom of the banana and it pops open, unlike the way the tab usually breaks off at the top. (wordscannotdescribehowmuchIhatebananas...)

    Thunderf00t shows us that Ray now uses that piece as a comedy skech. If you have seen his "Why do people laugh at creationists" series, it's in there. If you haven't get watching!

    This thread should be stickied. Or put in a museum* or something.




    *A creationist museum!:eek:

    I'm pretty sure I've seen monkeys tear the skin of with their teeth, at no place in particular. Maybe different groups of monkeys or different monkeys individually open them their own way.

    Hmmm it seems you're right. Nicely played my Mr Hatter.

    Edit: Wait I was right, those monkeys in the vid are tearing them open with their teeth...

    My mind is blown.

    I think we have finally found a way to counter the intelligent design argument.

    If those are gorillas, I need to go back to school.

    Though their hands are tiny - their teeth are probably better for squeezing one end anyhow. I can't really see which end they're opening the thing with, tbh.
