Apparently rhesus monkeys give in to their kids' tantrums if other monkeys are watching

This makes sense to me.

Also? They're 400 - 400 - times more likely to get aggressive towards their own crying babies. This also makes sense to me, and is a good reason to reiterate that anybody who feels frustrated with their crying child should stop, put the kid down, and take a breath somewhere else. Because we're not monkeys. (No tails.)

So, I can tell it's St. Patrick's Day.

How can I tell? Because every other post is somebody with an amusing or touching video of Danny Boy. (The muppets were a nice touch, I must say. Every holiday needs more muppets.)

Only thing is... well... Danny Boy isn't actually an Irish song. It was written by an Englishman. In America. The tune, sure, that's Irish, but the words...? Not so much.

This wouldn't concern me at all except, frankly, the song is considerably overdone. Next year, everybody should pick a different song instead.
