Chunky Monkeys (Warning Do not eat before Viewing)

dailymail.co.uk — Happy tourists visiting the wildlife park in Japan might have thought they were treating the monkeys. But they have left many of them so overweight they can hardly get around.

  • mydigga, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2I see she has the pink chewies
  • Neverclear, on 05/06/2008, -1/+20Don't call the monkeys obese and recommend diet and exercise.
    That hurts feelings and is a hate crime.
    • barryiggins, on 05/06/2008, -0/+18It is a vicious cycle of binging and self-loathing. . . and throwing feces.
      • gammamike, on 05/06/2008, -1/+2Dugg for hurling excrement a.k.a. ***** flinging or: throwing the soft brown caber.
  • Kumaku, on 05/06/2008, -0/+4They look diabetic. Poor monkey.
    • Waterrat, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1 Why would the overseers be alarmed?
      This did not happen overnight.
  • mugicha, on 05/06/2008, -7/+3Oh my god that first one of the monkey taking a ***** is awesome.
    • colto, on 05/06/2008, -0/+8I'm pretty sure that's a tail. Unless of course these monkeys have ***** which grows fur.
      • gammamike, on 05/06/2008, -1/+3No, no...it's funnier as a giant hairy dump...let us BELIEVE!
  • FoolyCoolyGuy, on 05/06/2008, -0/+5oh god its like Jabba the monkey

  • killerbob2323, on 05/06/2008, -0/+9OMG The monkey in the 2nd picture has some massive BITCH *****!!!
  • dvsbastard, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2Now that I have seen them, can I eat one?!
  • dafunkmonster, on 05/06/2008, -0/+8I think the tourists misunderstood...they've been feeding them Ben and Jerry's all this time...
  • Schul983, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2I honestly thought that this was the onion at first, but I have to say this is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.
  • cobrapeed, on 05/06/2008, -2/+16We need signs that say "Don't throw bananas at Americans". We could use a diet as a nation.
  • MyDiggIsBig, on 05/06/2008, -1/+2We need to get them on the Dr Phil show. He'll know what to do.
  • digggggggggg, on 05/06/2008, -0/+27Pray.... for.... mojo....
    • Tryptomine, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1Ah, damn.
    • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1Beat me to it.
    • je12u, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1I don't know who to digg up ...you, or palehorse864
      Me thinks palehorse864 stole your comment and posted it as a reply to be higher up on the page
      • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2Actually I didn't steal it. I took it from a simpsons quote and posted it up there. But I also looked down here and regretfully saw that I had already been beaten to it so digggggggggg was first. I imagine for anyone who saw that episode though, this was the first thought on their minds as well.
  • Tryptomine, on 05/06/2008, -7/+3Pray. For. Mojo.
  • Berkana, on 05/06/2008, -3/+8Pick an excuse:

    1) He's not fat, he's big boned.
    2) He's not a glutton, he's a food enthusiast.
    3) He's not lazy, he's a convenience enthusiast.
    4) It's not his fault, it's his genes.
  • jontalisman, on 05/06/2008, -2/+3The wildlife park should be charged with animal abuse for letting this situation get so out of hand.
    • uziko, on 05/06/2008, -2/+1i think you should be charged with annoying me stfu
  • grantilius, on 05/06/2008, -4/+1i hate that im such a dumb american i dont know how much a stone denotes in weight. Why did we have to go on the English system only to have everyone abandon us!!!
    • Pyrogen, on 05/06/2008, -0/+3Um, stone IS the English system, not metric.
    • snowpatrol, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2"The monkeys usually weigh around 20lbs, but one at the park is a whopping 4 1/2 stone" The daily mail writers are retards. I don't understand why they don't give both values in the same units.
      • dok333, on 05/06/2008, -0/+0I'm guessing that is what they were told by the zoo, and they didn't know how to convert a stone, whatever the ***** that is, to pounds either
      • wacomwacoff, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1Because in the UK, a stone (14 lbs) is used for body weight and animal weight. It's a British tradition sort of thing.
    • wacomwacoff, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2A stone is 14 pounds. 4 1/2 stone is 63 pounds. It's a British system for measuring body weight.
      • captainLAGER, on 05/06/2008, -1/+2They need to get over their medieval system. Same goes for America!
  • TecK415, on 05/06/2008, -0/+4OMNOMNOMNOMNOM
  • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+52FTA: "The monkeys usually weigh around 20lbs, but one at the park is a whopping 4 1/2 stone"

    I wonder who thought of changing units of weight measurement mid-sentence.
  • spargett, on 05/06/2008, -3/+3Americans still leaving their mark in foreign countries.
    • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+3Yes, from the British article about the Japanese monkeys with the don't feed the monkeys sign written all in Japanese. :)
      • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1By Japanese monkeys, I mean those monkeys in Japan. the mucacas are more common around Afghanistan.
  • tkcom, on 05/06/2008, -0/+10Sumo monkeys... FIGHT!
  • Gonasadude, on 05/06/2008, -0/+164.5 stone = 63 pounds
    • rascilon, on 05/06/2008, -0/+0Thank you. I was wondering what the hell that meant.
  • frisk415, on 05/06/2008, -4/+1Dugg down for saying stones instead of lbs.
    • palehorse864, on 05/06/2008, -0/+2I don't mind that they said, stones, but it was funny that they swapped units of measurement in mid sentence when pounds would have still sufficed easily. If you were swapping to tons maybe, I could see it.
  • fatas, on 05/06/2008, -0/+9Finally Monkeys from America
  • ablacksunrise, on 05/06/2008, -0/+4The missing link??
  • w09p, on 05/06/2008, -1/+1More mouthwatering monkeys.
  • espresso0, on 05/06/2008, -3/+04 1/2 stones = ?
  • jackromke, on 05/06/2008, -1/+1Strange how the deer at Nara dont get fat...
  • MasterTroll, on 05/06/2008, -2/+2I ate a banana before viewing this.
  • cramming, on 05/06/2008, -2/+1I finished a bowl of Frosted Flakes before entering this thread. I am delighted to know these monkeys share a love of Frosted Flakes with me.

    I feel like the world is smaller now, and that I can cross a bridge from my backyard, and shake the hand dangling from your bed from underneath your bed I am glad to meet you too!
  • kotatsu, on 05/06/2008, -1/+2Hey what a surprise, another sensationalist story to drive traffic to the racist hate filled gutter press rag that is the Daily Hail.

    STOP POSTING LINKS TO THIS WRETCHED PUBLICATION!
    • Berkana, on 05/06/2008, -0/+3I keep seeing the occasional post claiming that the Daily Mail is racist and hate filled. Perhaps I haven't read enough of the Daily Mail, but so far, I'm not seeing it. All I see is that they're as much a celebrity gossip paper as they are a newspaper. Any examples of them being racist or "hate filled"? I don't suppose you mean hatred towards obese monkeys?
      • powatom, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1They're not 'overtly' racist, but they have an incredibly high number of 'LOOK AT ALL THESE FOREIGNERS TAKING OUR JOBS - SEND THEM HOME' stories to warrant the title.
        • Berkana, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1Having a lot of stories about "foreigners taking our jobs" is not quite the same thing as being racist and hate filled. Are they a gutter press rag? Perhaps; they have too much celeb gossip for the amount of news they carry, but I just don't see the "hate filled" part.
  • cobophers, on 05/06/2008, -1/+1Get those monkeys some BIG ASS FRIES and EXTRA BIG ASS TACO! Now with more MOLECULES!

  • cobophers, on 05/06/2008, -0/+5It's 4:16am and I am fascinated by fat monkeys. Why am I awake? Thats right, I procrastinated on my assignment. Now on digg looking at fat monkeys. Got to keep going...world depends upon grad student's project no one will see. Sad.....
