Monkey Day is an annual celebration of all things simian, a festival of primates, a chance to scream like a monkey and throw feces at whomever you choose. Or perhaps just a reason to hang out with your friends while grunting and picking fleas off each other. (note: for legal reasons, the publishers of the Monkey Day website in no way endorse throwing feces in any manner at any time.)
When is Monkey Day?
Annually on December 14th.
Where did Monkey Day come from?
The true origins of Monkey Day are deeply shrouded in mystery. Some say that the Monkey Day movement began as a tool to further the awareness of simian species and habitats. Others say that Monkey Day began as a scientific backlash to all of the religious holidays permeating the month of December, an evolutionary finger to the creationist holidays. Still others say that the concept for Monkey Day was brought on by the drunken debauchery of several young hooligans with a special affinity for monkeys, spending the first Monkey Day touting their simian virtues and screaming obscenities at the local pub. Whatever the conception, Monkey Day has evolved beyond any simple beginnings into a greater movement.
Why Monkey Day?
Why not Monkey Day? Besides, monkeys make people smile.
