The Human Animal is a six part BBC documentary in which world-renowned zoologist Desmond Morris studies humans in the same manner that he would study any other species.

Dude, as a Pennsylvanian, even I know this is never, ever going to happen. If it did, Ed Rendell would just have a fucking heart attack and die of happiness.
Dude. It could happen. And I’d be pumped. Yesterday my roommate goes “Hmm, what else could we use this face paint [from halloween] for?”

Unlikely by Jeffrey Brown
Okay so I read this graphic novel. It was entertaining, and I’ll let anyone borrow it, because it was worth the read.
My problem with it: I definitely thought it was going to be funny. A few pages were, maybe. But seeing as I just kind of recently got out of a relationship that was depressingly (eerily?) similar to the one in the book, I was disappointed. The happy ending I was hoping for...
