Isn’t it obvious that the monkeys were just trying to help her overcome her fear?

Will dying in a plane crash help one overcome their fear of flying?

[Kartographer]

Must be liberal monkeys!

[Mac from Cleveland]

I have a fear of being stuck in an elevator with a bikini-clad Cindy Crawford overnight-maybe this type of therapy might work for me. Who can I talk to to see if I can confront my demons?

[gundog]

Problem solved. Now she has a rational fear of monkeys.

[Apparatchik]

Which one is the hippo?

[subterfuge]

I have a fear of heights, but you don’t see me walking a tight-rope over the Grand Canyon either.

But it’s typical liberal group-think. To wish and Hope to have no fears in life is an ideal of the left called Utopia. Hey stupid leftists, “Utopia” doesn’t exist and never will.

She is lucky she doesn’t quite qualify as a Darwin nominee.

Man, I’m on a role today!!

Too bad she wasn’t able to get the monkey off her back.

When that happens, one loses fear of anything and everything.

Given that the last time I saw a monkey was about 10 years ago, couldn’t we assume she could easily live with a fear of monkeys?

I’m afraid of Tigers, but thankfully, it hasn’t hindered my lifestyle.

Yea, the following is an approximation of her therapist talking to a colleague

“...well, that could have gone better.”

“Did you really tell her to surround herself with wild monkeys to conquer her fear?”

“I didn't think she would actually do it! Who does something like that? She must be nuts! I meant go to the zoo. What could happen there? Some poo thrown at the glass enclosure? Then you go watch the seal show and get a t shirt. Or get some stuffed animal monkeys, the plush kind. Who the hell goes to the jungle?”

“So what now? Think she will sue?”

“No, it's all golden. If she was phobic before, she really has got it now in spades. I'm going to schedule her for three times a week. How can her insurance complain about that? All she has to do is say “Look at the monkey bites!” She's good for two or three years on that...”

In Thailand...monkeys spank you.

Classic! I'm giggling like a fiend at this thread today. lol

Thai names crack me up.

[GladesGuru]

Call an African “Bush Meat” dealer - they know what to do with monkey problem situations.

[NonValueAdded]

Reminds me of a Kissinger quote

[TheThirdRuffian]

I am working on getting over my phobia of being sexually used by a team of gorgeous women in bikinis and fur boots. I wonder if the same tour guide who helped this woman could help me.

Never back away from a monkey!

I would know. I pounce when folks back away from me, too.
