Primates usually dig on bananas, at least in cartoony things

It's weird how many other facts this article offers up for consumption, ostensibly accurate. Research occurred. It's confusing.

Where Do Your Parents Think You Are Right Now, Internet?

Up with this clueless self-indulgent corporate streaming thing, and down with I guess just talking about a comprehensive music festival. Got it.

This story doesn't know how to feel about any of this! Half a commercial, half just straight goofin'.
