Magilla Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla, to you!

It appears that if you want the world to beat a path to your door, there’s obviously no need to build a better mouse trap.

How many mice did that century-and-half-old contraption capture in its lifespan?

A 155 years to catch a mouse. Must be a mighty slow trap.

… and if you named one after a classic SNL character, it would be Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla Rosanna Rosannadanna.

I heard that when the inventor of the Pringles potato chip died, he was cremated and his ashes were put in a Pringles can…Anyhow, I stopped eating them about a year ago. I prefer the bagged ones instead.

Mr. Graziano should check out the new Wavy Pringles.

I now wonder how a parabolic hyperboloid looks like.

Do we have to click our heels together after saying Gorilla each time?

Does the gorilla gorilla gorilla wants a banana banana banana?

I think that’s the same nomenclature for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice… Oops!

How would you UNSUCCESSFULLY catch a mouse?

It is also believed by some to be the shape of the universe.

If a mousetrap was built 155 years ago, why wouldn’t it work today? The concept is still the same. Lure a rat in with cheese and then trap or kill them.

Does the Central Park Zoo have a Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla right there in New York, New York, New York?

How much is that gorilla in the window?

Any container can be a “mousetrap.” Mice go into things.

So you can eat your Pringle’s and have your geometry too.

Stacks are thicker and better than Pringles

Sounds like what I scream when I’m surprised by one in the jungle! GORILLA, GORILLA, GORILLA

Now I know why the U.S. voted for Trump.

buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo

is a perfectly logical and correct sentence(but is without the correct punctuation)…

Here it is with the correct punctuation:

“Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo, buffalo Buffalo buffalo.”

No, it’s called delicious!

Say it 3 times and a gorilla appears.

It’s the same with Grizzly bears: Ursus arctos horribilis: ursus is bear in Latin and arctos is bear in Greek. So a grizzly is a horrible bear bear.

But wait. It gets better… The Eurasian brown bear is Ursus arctos arctos – bear bear bear. It’s the most bear a bear can be.

And so now you understand the Arctic circle is named for the bears. It’s the circle with bears and the Antarctic is away from bears. We basically live in a world defined by the grizzly. How much more awesome is that!!!

A mouse died inside a 155-year-old mousetrap…in a museum (3088)

And I thought “Vulpes vulpes” was fun.

And the proper name for my young next door neighbor is “Hot Hot Hot”…

So-o-o the mousetrap has been trying unsuccessfully since 1860?…

And now we will have gorilla gorilla gorilla tape and glue.

…and now the gorilla is back in Kansas.

We used to call the hyperbolic paraboloids “saddle-shaped”. It’s one of the three alternative basic possible forms the universe is supposed to have, upgraded by one space dimension.
