What is a sock monkey?

I feel I am displaying shameful ignorance here, but I plead my relative newbieness: what is a sock monkey? :confused:

Also, forgive me if I’ve posted in the wrong board. It’s a bit of a challenge figuring out what goes where.

Thanks.

Sorry, skeptic_ev, I forgot to mention that the mods frown on cross-posting in different forums. Better to use the “Report this post to a moderator” feature and have it moved officially, rather than declaring it closed/moved and then posting the same OP in the right forum.

A Sock Munkey is a poster here. A sock puppet, on the other hand, is an alternate identity created to provide reinforcement to a weak argument, by making it seem as if another poster is agreeing with you. Those are frowned upon as well, and the creation of another username will likely result in both your usernames being banned.

No, no, Q.E.D., a sock monkey is one of these. :slight_smile:

No problem. You’ll get the hang of it.

As I posted in your IMHO thread, next time, instead of cross-posting, please let your friendly Moderators move threads – It’s what we live for.

You rang?

Oh that was so cute! Sock Munkey! ROTFlaughing!
Oh. Rang you?! Oh…
Orangutans!

If I could get reactions like that every time I would meet a lot more people.

Hi skyzoo!

Sock monkeys are evil! They always scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. Desmostylus, that link of yours opened the gates of hell and delerium before me once again, damn you!

How about a sock elephant, then?

There’s something disturbing about that red butt.

Having said that, it’s not as freaky as the sock monkey.

My people shall not be oppressed!
