You know, given the current state of our world — what with humans killing each other in religious warfare, and the ice caps all but wiping out our coastal cities, and most of us in a near economic meltdown — it seems that humans are at its weakest point in centuries. So weak, in fact, that it seems it’s the perfect opportunity for us to be overtaken, completely, as a species.
Which is why, maybe, it isn’t the best idea to teach monkeys how to ride a Segway. Give a monkey a Segway, and he’ll climb on it for a day. Teach a monkey to Segway… and he will murder you and your family in your home, steal your belongings, have a bite to eat, and speed off before anyone has any idea what the hell happened.
Who knew this useless machine could end up being so adorable! Though, to be fair, my friend Jon Friedman found the Japanese handler much more adorable.
