Somewhat amusing explanation of FX

I don't generally find use of the word "MONKEY" a wacky, funny or clever statement, but this made me chuckle in places.

A+ thread. Definantly a good read, the word monkey has never been used better in so many ways.

I mentally substituted the word "pirate" for "monkey." This worked pretty well, but made "bananas" a non-sequitur. "Free-range pirate" was also problematic. So next time I'm going with "cowboy."

"spaceman" is an attractive option too.
