Drunken Dancing Monkeys Wearing Shirts that are Orange

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

As you know, yesterday the dancing monkeys wearing shirts that are orange took the day off.

Unfortunately, they had a little too much fun on their day off.

Silly, silly monkeys.

They got more than a little drunk and disorderly. Yes, the dancing monkeys wearing shirts that are orange got a little, um, wasted.

So, you’ll have to forgive them if their performance is a little off today…

Here are the dancing monkeys wearing shirts that are orange taking the day off:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What? You don’t see them? That’s because they’re taking the day off. That means they wouldn’t pose in front of the camera. Which means all you get to see is white snow.

Well, I think the dancing monkeys deserved a break, don’t you? They’ve been dancing their little orange shirts and blue suits off the past several days, so why not give them a break for a while?

Maybe they’ll be back tomorrow. One never knows around here.

It’s like a zoo around here.

You know, with the dancing monkeys and all.

Dancing Monkeys Wearing Shirts that are Orange

First, I presented you with plenty of pictures of bananas.

At which point you likely thought I was bananas.

Then, I presented a photo of an orange that looked like a football. Sort of.

Now, I will combine those themes…

What likes bananas?

Monkeys!

What wears orange t-shirts?

Why monkeys, of course! Or, maybe it was the Monkees that wore orange t-shirts. Or maybe not. Anyway, think of monkeys in orange shirts. Cool, eh?

What could make that image even better?

Imagine them dancing!

Yeah, I know. It’s legen–

Wait for it…

–dary!

Okay, so here you go. Here are some dancing monkeys wearing shirts that are orange!

New Internet Meme: Where’s My Facebook Login?

Friday, February 12th, 2010

That’s the newest meme (I predict)… Leaving a comment on a blog that says something like, “This blog is cool and all, but where’s my Facebook login?” Or you can vary it up a bit.

Why? you ask.

Well, apparently, a number of people login to Facebook by going to Google, searching for “Facebook login” and clicking on the first result.

For a while, the first result was an article on the Facebook login.

So, people ended up at that article rather than at Facebook. Thus, there was no Facebook login. But, the site’s comment system let you login through Facebook, Twitter, OpenID, etc. to leave a comment.

People would sign in to the comment system and not get to Facebook, because, you know, the site isn’t Facebook. It seems some people just assumed Facebook redecorated… again.

The site later added a notice in bold lettering that they are, in fact, not Facebook.

So, now it can be a meme. This blog is great and all, but where’s my Facebook login?

Ask dcr: String Theory

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

String Theory
String Theory: It’s What Did Captain Kirk In. Er, I Guess that was the Nexus. String Theory is Easier to Understand…

Today, I received an interesting question from Speedy: “Does string theory work better on the 10 dimensional model?”

That’s an easy one: Yes, depending upon the circumstances.

If you have a question, send it to: askdcr@dcrblogs.com. That address, of course, may change one day if I start getting a bunch of “Official [insert name of little blue pill]” junk mail.
