… with good puns in them.
The story is so new that only this one has so far emerged:
Jane Goodall is Sorry for Monkeying Around Proper Attribution in New Book
Which is lame.
So… Can we do better? Monkey. Chimp. Goodall. Primatologist. Must be something here.
***********************
OK:
GOODALL APES OTHERS’ PROSE
Yeah. Still lame.
**********************
Totally predictable lame puns on the book title starting to appear:
Jane Goodall: Seeds of Plagiarism
Yeah.
… How about:
ME: Tarzan.
YOU: Plagiarist.

The chimpanzee but not the gorilla
Requires more than just a scintilla
Of original prose
Or else (heaven knows)
One’s best-sellers become quite vanilla.

Uh-oh. I can feel my compulsion kicking in . . .
Oh, it’s a “howler” that I “monkey around”
And was “aping” books lying around.
The jokes just write themselves
By tens and by twelves.
Should have studied the mundane basset hound.
Alas, now will my critics impugn!
I knew it was wrong to festoon
Books with phrases indebted
To others less feted.
It makes me look like a real . . . . . . . buffoon.

Rumbled in the jungle?

Jane is a Cheetah.

Jim R: Good one. I was playing around with jungle too.

Jack/OH: Yes – the cheetah meme is making the rounds…

Monkey see, monkey do.
If you can write it, I can, too.
