New Scientist: Wild chimpanzees create spears and use them to hunt and kill smaller primates for food. So what is it, exactly, that separates us from chimps? (Via Boing Boing)
I haven’t speared anything for food lately, so I feel sufficiently smug. :)

You keep referencing this overlords quote. What’s the orginal and why is it funny?
Overlords aren’t funny, they’re bad. yeah, just plain bad.

The original is from the Simpsons - read the “Overlord meme” section here for an explanation. (Or find and watch the episode named there, which is funnier than reading an explanation.)

I can imagine a bushbaby, under attack, repeating the immortal words of Charlton Heston, “Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!”
