The magnificent Orangutan
I went along to Chester Zoo recently with the family. Always a pleasant experience, personally I like the Giraffes.

Anyway, we were wandering through the Orangutans enclosure, enjoying the spectacle of a large male doing a little nasal appraisal to pass the time.

Up comes your typical scouse chav family, parents smoking happily away while pushing the pram, noisy kids...you get the picture.

One of the future teenage pregnancy candidates pipes up to her dad....

GIRL: "wot's da?"

DAD: "it's an oorang ootan innit"

GIRL: "duz it dew ennytin?"

ME:(internal dialogue) "does it fuckin do anything?!?!? That is one of the worlds most endangered creatures, which although it might look like a week old wrinkly, hairy balloon could quite happily twist your head off with one foot. If it could be arsed .....but he seems to have decided that picking debris out of his bumhole is more fun."

I give you Homo-Sapiens, self proclaimed pinnacle of evolution...OMFG.
