Document Confusion by Ohrlyeh Totenkinder

September 10th, 2007 11:36 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Document the experience of confusion, in yourself or in others.

So I was at work, and by boss comes in and says

"Why exactly did you leave that coconut outside? Is it a part of that game you are playing?"
"Um what coconut?'
"The one you left on the street corner by the lamp post."
"I didn't leave a coconut anywhere."
"ok.....whatever, make sure you pick it up when you are done with it"




Well, needless to say I was intrigued. A stray coconut is not so unusual in a subtropical area, or even San Francisco where stray objects are pretty much the basis of the entire culture there, but in Burlingame where I worked a random coconut is downright unusual. I went to investigate.


Apparently at some point in the evening someone had abandoned a coconut, a pile of Now and Laters and what appears to be, after further examination of the photos, four cents. Did an Sf0er discover where I worked? Was I inadvertently a subject of someone's task? Has my affinity for coconut been discovered? Has someone laid a p00n trap knowing one of my biggest weaknesses?

fuck it, I love coconut!!

I left the candy and money remembering all the lessons about taking sweets from strangers....I had never met that lamp post and it did have a decidedly shifty look about it. The coconut looked far enough removed from the unsavory lot to adequately convinced me that it did not "hang" with that sort of element. My growling stomach and watering mouth had absolutely nothing to do with this decision.


I was confused, my boss was confused as this video shows. but in the end I had a tasty coconut which got devoured post haste and shared the rest, that evening, with Lowteck and Mr. Bigglesworth.

um coconut
the gears turn

wha...uh..um..

I feel like "Back in Black" should play everytime I read one of your new completions.

You are clearly goading your boss into admitting that she was "confused" at the coconut. She does not appear to be confused. She knows it was you and/or your SFØ cohorts who have concocted, yet again, some sort of coconut shenanigans in order to throw her off.

yet the thing is, I honestly had nothing to do with the coconut until i ate it. I was totally confused as well. I would add amazed, and joyful to that list if I had to. I don't think it had anything to do with SF0 either. Burlingame is kind of out of the way and there does not seem to be any in game purpose for the stash to be there. This happened a couple months ago. I think if it was a game thing, something would have surfaced by now. I believe the coconut is a mystery never to be solved

Yes.
posted by The Vixen on September 12th, 2007 10:45 PM

Some do. For example, the Proboscis Monkey (Nasalis larvatus) often swims from island to island near Borneo. Yay biological anthropology!

You looked that up?!?
posted by Blue on September 13th, 2007 8:38 AM

You looked that up?!?

No seriously did you, cause otherwise I feel very not smart right now.

Nope
posted by The Vixen on September 13th, 2007 8:57 AM

Well, I looked up it's genus and species (nasalis laravatus) but no, I'm an anthropologist baby! My favorite primate (un-monkey) is the Bonobo. They are gentle creatures and use sex as a form of social cohesion. Yay social cohesion!

Bonobos creep me out.

Spider Monkeys always look like they're having a great time.

pshh
posted by The Vixen on September 13th, 2007 2:37 PM

Bonobos are simply more gracile (thinner, taller) chimps. Same genus, just different species. They're nice too. Oh, and they also stand upright for extended periods of time. And scientists say that we're closer to chimps...

Plus, unlike chimps, Bonobos don't eat their enemies when they get in wars. Yes, chimps have wars. Maybe we ARE close to chimps then...

Did you just pshh me?
posted by Blue on September 13th, 2007 4:07 PM

I heard that genetically we are closer to dogs than monkeys.
Chromosome per Chromosome

Nope.
posted by The Vixen on September 13th, 2007 4:22 PM

It was a "pshh" to El Capitain for saying that Bonobos are creepy, you dog...

that might be just be an your isolated instance Schalicho :P
posted by Ohrlyeh Totenkinder on September 13th, 2007 4:25 PM

....but starting to have an urge to work some sweet sweet social cohesion magic with Ms. Big brain up there! Color me Bonobo. eeek eeekk yeah baby!..(cough)..uh...sorry bout that, I think I just channeled that creepy guy my dad used to play golf with.

hmmm
posted by The Vixen on September 13th, 2007 4:33 PM

Ms. Big Brain, huh? One more fact:

Bonobos have a matriarchal society. Wrap your head around that. I still insist that we are closer to them than we think. I am, after all, a vixen.

Well... birds make messy lovers. And Bonobos are apes, not monkeys. Monkeys have tails. But a big one is nice every once in a while. Tails, of course.

Messy lovers
posted by Blue on September 13th, 2007 5:01 PM

Yeah, but sex in mid-air?
It's got to be worth the mess.
What kind of messy bird sex have you been having?

So focused on the tail... what does it matter tail or no tail?
Big tail or little tail? It's a monkey thats in love with a bird,
I think the tail is the smallest difference that is coming into play.

How about simian is that far reaching enough to be all inclusive???

None of your business... Oh you weren't talking to me....
posted by Bex. on September 13th, 2007 5:05 PM

Whats wrong with messy bird love?

Well
posted by The Vixen on September 13th, 2007 5:06 PM

The question is:

What kind of suspended from a tree-branch sex with a monkey haven't I've been having? Whatever that means...

Ugh, I'm getting confused with the symbolism here.

Who you callin' a monkey, Schalicho?

Ooops. Again. Not referring to me...

Don't worry

Bex, you can ease your mind. Lola has been true to you. Well, since she was gang raped... I think you two will have a harmonious relationship!
