Why should it surprise us, ever? Turtle Guy was not even a Florida Man. THAT was the shocker in all of it for me! :)

This is what happens when you watch "Every Which Way But Loose" one too many times.

Also: 100% on #TeamMayur here; those things might not be venomous, but they're still lethal; for example, I would probably have a heart attack if I was in his shoes.

Seriously! Even if it were Clint v the Monkey--I'm putting my money on the monkey. Sorry Clint! And same: If someone came in with a large reptile, I'd just open the register, turn around, leave from the back, and text my resignation to my manager once I got across state lines.

Priceless, Sheila. You are such a nut! And yet... that humor of yours always thinly covers important social or cultural issues. Good for you, kid. Have it all going on.

Glad I made you laugh, Sharron! There is definitely no shortage of weird in the world these days! Might as well get a kick out of some of it!

The Charla-Travis chimp story ended up in “Chimp Crazy” documentary on Max. That was an excellent series and painful of course. It was basically a dark twisted one sided romance between Tonia who thought she was palsy with a chimp named Tonka. Mental!

I remember that chimp story. I think folks that own lions have never read the story about the pet alligator that ate his owner as a snack. Or, like women who stay with an adulterer, This time will be different.

Very funny piece! 👏😂

And the crazy thing: that woman GOT ANOTHER chimp! She is the human equivalent of a flip phone from 1999

They obviously have not seen old horror movies like "Alligator" where this kind of activity has astonishingly bad consequences.
