Title: You all need more Armless Monkey in your lives.
Post by: DW on September 16, 2008, 10:38:37 AM
I'm home all day due to what I think is a popped blood vessel in my eye, but the school thinks might be pinkeye so they won't let me in. So I found this incredibly amazing comic you all ought to read.

Armless monkey (http://armlessmonkey.smackjeeves.com/comics/228618/armless-monkey-answers-the-telephone/)

You, sir, take life too seriously.

He's adorable

he's got 3 other limbs, he should try using them for a change. I mean a monkey can use its feet the same way it can use its hands, so why not do that?

I do like how the author develops the ironies though.

One of the comics actually addresses the 'why does he not use his tail' issue.

And yes, Remington is very talented. He didn't even plan for Armless Monkey to be a comic, it was kind of a one-time gag but people liked it. So he just adds one whenver he thinks about it. But yeah, Catohoop Heroes and PKGA are both really good comics by him.

...

And incredibly cute.

I still don't get why he doesn't use his tail. Even after looking over that comic twice.

Some of those were pretty predictable... Still pretty funny, though.

You have to look at it as a running gag, not a full-fledged comic. For a running gag, it's pretty sweet.

Yeah, I think so, too. It definitely wouldn't last as a whole comic, but for what it is, it's pretty good.

I figured that was what you meant... I'm just baffled as to why you left the "retty" out of "pretty."
