green_queen | Monkeys are fanboys too!

I had a really nice day today.

I worked in the morning - Luke was okay, not the best he's been but not too bad. Then I came home, went to the Boys' Grammar fete for lunch (I bought a sausage sandwich and toffee, just like I always do at fetes) and then walked Saffy to Manuka to meet Nutty to hang out all afternoon. And then I met up with Mum and Clare and we had Chinese and it was good. Now I'm happy :D but bloody exhausted.

Link of the Day is a teaser of

chaodai's new comic, The Middleman, which looks fucking awesome.

So apparently some scientist made a bunch of monkeys thirsty and then offered them a choice between drinking cherry cordial (their favourite) or looking at the dominant monkeys in the pack and they chose to look at the doms. (heh. doms.) Then he gave them a choice between drinking the cordial and looking at the submissive members of the group of monkeys. Not only would the monkeys not choose to look at the pictures, but they had to be bribed with cordial to even look at those pictures.

Nutty said it reveals a lot about the gay male online dating community. I said it reveals a lot about fandom. (heh. dom.)

I'd've thought "big-hearted" would be higher on his list.
