Wait. What?!

Since I only know ‘flying monkeys’ as a Wizard of Oz reference, I did an internet search...

OMG(osh).

Some folks are just gettin’ plain in-your-face ugly, IMO.

Please, let’s agree to end this back-and-forth over a daggum request to move a certain topic/source to festival.

Respectfully,

((aint’t no hugs for this tripe))

Not sure if I want to do that search...

Since a little group on the threa wants to take over and destroy it, what can be done? Just ignoring them at this point is waving the white flag.

Beware Of The Flying Monkeys: Curbing Vindictive Behavior In The Office

Flying monkeys has become a way of referencing how someone else does the bidding of another, and not for altruistic purposes. More specifically, according to the article “Are You A Narcissist’s Flying Monkey?”, the term was coined after the Wicked Witch of the West’s flying monkeys that “were sent by the witch to do her dirty work.”
