Which are funnier, monkeys or weasels?
I have a follow up question.

Monkeys are funnier to watch, but weasels are funnier to insert as a non sequitur in a question.
Weasels. The word itself is funnier.
And yet in my CI talk I get more laughs from saying “I’d be pushing the button like a crazed monkey” than when I say I’d be like a crazed weasel. Maybe monkey have the advantaged when there is button pushing involved?
Weasels…..ask Eddie Izzard.
Eddie Izzard…is that the guy from Ocean’s Thirteen?
Monkeys.
Weasels bite and seem nasty. Nasty’s not funny.
Monkeys are cute (in the image first to my mind, not to say they’re all always cute), and fling poo, which is funny. They were hilarious in the movie Madagascar. Tarzan’s monkey (cheetah) always gave us hijinx to laugh at.
My assumption was that you were referring to the animal, so I didn’t have the non-animal connotations for weasel.
Monkeys are also easier to relate to.

Is this some cruel attempt to bait me?
