I'm officially declaring the word "monkey" the newest and possibly the greatest of all purpose words. Just try it...

"OW! I stubbed my toe! Monkeys!"
"You are such a monkey!"
"Quit monkeying around!" (Ahh, yes, this is an old one isn't it. Well, it was a step in the right direction, but was never taken to it's fullest)
"This place is completely monkey(by raising the pitch of the voice on the first syllable, it is a positive statement, by lowering the voice on the same syllable, it becomes negative)."

Go ahead, next time your boss stiffs you on that raise you've worked so hard for, don't go off spouting obscenities, just call him a monkey (For example, "Monkey that monkey monkey monkey!"). After all, who can be sad or angry when there's a monkey around?

In my family we often take it a step further and say, "Holy monkeys!"

Learned that one from a missionary that served in my ward once, and my brother-in-law loved it so much he picked it up, and the rest of us followed.

Would you like to touch my monkey?

Um... Bev might not like that. Or KPC.

Don't say "look at that monkey run" on Monday Night Football. It will get you fired.
