When a man says he’ll do anything for a woman; he means fighting bad guys or killing dragons. Definitely not vacuuming or washing dishes.

Hope that helps.

So excited about my raise today. It was in medication dosage but a win’s a win

Well actually, a gorilla is an ape, not a monkey…

> You’ll often hear “well actually, X is an ape, not a monkey”, but it’s rather more nuanced than that. Cladistically, apes are a subgroup of monkeys. Common usage tends to use “monkey” to refer to all simians except apes, but excluding apes from other simians doesn’t have a reasonable biological basis.

I stand corrected… 😊

For that matter, humans are all both apes and monkeys, too, but most humans will be insulted if you call them either. So don’t call the Librarian a monkey, and don’t call the Archchancellor an ape, even if both are technically true.

None the languages I am at all familiar with or have an acquaintance who is, except English, has a separate word for ape. For example, my Swiss Friend called his HS the Affenkasten (literall monkey house, although I assume Affe is cognate with ape). If you look up ape in a English-French dictionary, you get something that back-translates to “hairless monkey without tail”.

### What’s the difference between customer service in 1995 vs 2025?

In 1995, you had to speak with five different reps before finding someone who was able to help.
