There were bound to be plenty of unpredictable consequences as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, but a gang war between rival packs of monkeys in the streets of Thailand?

Sasaluk Rattanachai, a local shopkeeper who was credited by the Daily Mail for capturing the footage, claimed that this is the first time she's ever seen such a clash between the temple monkeys and the city monkeys, two different groups separated by a train track.

Of course, you'll recall that the original novel of THE PLANET OF THE APES begins with a pandemic virus.

Cleanup on aisle 5!!!

Hmm. I watched that in Jr High.

Romeo and Juliet too. So I watched the same story twice.

Temple monkeys. They’re promoting a false religion. If they keep it up, they’ll enslave humans.

In Costco today I saw the empty shelves, people loading up with 4 and 5 of the same thing and people still coming into the store.

My OPSEC hairs stood up on the back of my neck and almost instinctively thought this could get ugly at some point. Gonna new more po-po.

“Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!”

Santa Clarita has a helicopter shot on twitter of the Costco Line snaking around and around..it was unbelievable. And yes, you could see the cop cars

“Separated by a train track”

Ain’t that always the way it is?

“You south side monkeys ain’t welcome here in the north side! Get your red behinds back across those tracks!”

“Look Out Bob! He’s got a loaded banana!”

“Arghhhh! He chopped me wit a Chiquita!”

So funny, I was probably about 6 when I saw that planet of the apes scene on tv. I had watched the whole episode and basically comprehended it all, but had no idea what was the significance of the broken statue. I asked my older brother and he told me I was dumb ass. Oh well, it was no mystery when I watched it a few years later.

Things then escalate quickly... [Monkeys n Machine guns with banana clips!!]< /a>

How long it be before safe to go back to stores?

[Redcitizen]

“he told me I was dumb ass. “

Older brothers are like that. I made sure my brother wasn’t a total mothers boy. (he was the parents baby) I provided him some life seasoning.
He turned out ok. :)

First we get Deen Koontz Wuhan flu story. Then Sylvia Browne’s prediction about the Virus. Now we move to a real life Planet of the Apes...Can’t wait to see what’s next.

Zombies, my dear. Freakin' zombies.

Nothing but the best.

It's about time these monkey gangs were exposed. Seriously, I saw a video on youtube about monkey gangs. They would steal peoples’ sunglasses, sandals, etc. Then you had to pay a ransom to get your stuff back.
