Insert Coin for Dancing Monkey (3)
Patrons are reminded that this rickety barge is kept afloat by the kindness of strangers. If you’d like to help it remain buoyant for a while longer, there’s an orange button below with which to monetise any love for this low establishment. Debit and credit cards are accepted. For those wishing to express their love regularly, there’s a monthly subscription option top left. Additionally, any Amazon shopping done via this link or the search widget top right, or for Amazon US via this link, results in a small fee for your host at no extra cost to you. Now you can indulge your base appetites and feel saintly while doing it.
For newcomers wishing to know more about what’s been going on here for the last nine years, and in over 2,000 posts, the reheated series is a pretty good place to start. There you’ll find our leftist betters agonising at length and performing great feats of mental contortion. From a gloriously neurotic guide to inter-racial dating, and the extensive preconditions for ordering takeaway in a politically correct manner, to a deep rumination on litter inequality, and a Marxist academic’s belief that competent, caring parenting and reading to one’s children causes “unfair disadvantage” and should therefore induce feelings of guilt, being as it is an act of class oppression.
Meanwhile, aesthetes among you can savour a wide, possibly baffling range of artistic projects, including some thrilling interactions with automated hand dryers, Shakespeare enhanced with underpants and shrieking, and the immense political radicalism of amplified trousers. If you can, do take a moment to poke through the discussion threads too. The posts are intended as starting points, not full stops, and the comments are where much of the good stuff is waiting to be found. And do please join in.
Again, thanks for the support, the comments, and the company.
Still catching up on your ‘reheated’ series. Good stuff.
Tip jar hit.
I keep trying to write something articulate, but clients keep calling me expecting me to actually work today. I would like to say thanks for the many laughs-especially that oppression by bacon sandwich article. That alone was worth placing a few bucks in the tip jar. Have some bacon on me!
Thanks again to all who’ve chipped in, or subscribed, or done shopping via the Amazon links and widget. It’s much appreciated.
Small token of appreciation in your tip jar.
“A tiny bunny in a glass?”
That made my (and anyone else’s who bothered to watch it) day. Merci.
Merci.
With hindsight, it’s an obvious storage solution.
In other news: Campus Diversity is the best thing ever! Unless you care about standards that is.
Merci.
Now I want a nap.

She deserves no less.
Bunged you a few quid. Thanks for the laughs and insights.
If making me feel all warm and squishy is the goal, that’s the way to do it. Much appreciated.
Is that “OBEY” poster real, or is it a photoshop?
Please tell me it’s real.
Please tell me it’s real.
Oh, it’s real photoshopped . . .
I was thinking that someone may have indeed worked really quickly on that one—Albeit begging the question of why bother regarding such an obscurity—and then noticed that the details of the poster are quite sharp edged, but all the details of the photo are a bit fuzzily just a hair off focus . . .
Loving the reheats. Tip jar hit.
My eldest is at university and I send her some of your ‘academia’ posts. 🙂
Same here. 😀
Love expressed via paypal.
