Drunk Monkeys!
I just read this very interesting article about a recent experiment. Scientists tested various groups of rhesus macaque monkeys by offering them alcoholic beverages.
They discovered that monkeys, not unlike people, love getting plastered.
They also learned that monkeys drink more after times of stress as well as to "drown the pain." After heavy drinking, some monkeys still tried to climb trees despite the howls of other monkeys dressed in adorable police hats.
Monkeys that are housed individually tend to drink more than monkeys that live together. But the monkeys that drink together probably have a lot more fun. Unfortunately, the report was inconclusive on the effect of alcohol consumption on the likelihood of sloppy make-outs.
I swear, a statistically significant percentage of this information is actually in the article! You should read it.

Fran? I hate you.
The original article's headline brings forth an image of Monkeys with clipboards and white coats, swaying slightly.
