BTW, My internet has been out for 3 days, and I am following the woot-of in my blackberry. Do I get extra points for being an obssesed/ masoquist wooter (or are we all the same)?

People still use Blackberrys?

I see a lot of pet-related comments. Unfortunately, I have a black lab [mix] that would destroy this within SECONDS and never give it back. So there's no way I'm letting him near it haha

Might be a Wootoff killer, but it's not over.

Bring on the lol catz.

Where was the kitty with the woot-off bar I saw a few days back?

i agree with that one feller, why does the write up seem like they are retiring the monkey.... do you think it's time?

Once again the woot gods have smiled upon me! I was spared from having to choose between sitting thru another woot-off or going to a family function.

edit: no brainer

Why oh why do I keep buying the monkeys? I have 3 to 6 of every one except the original Red. WOOT

my last monkey is broke...he just goes Eiiii.a.a.a....erk....I think the battery is dying. But it is fun to shoot a dying monkey at people.

In the yard a day or two later? :P

I have three or four of these lying around that the dogs have had for several months and they seem to hold up well, but they don't chew on them as much as chase and shake them. If they chewed on them like they do their bones, they wouldn't last an hour.

haha yeah. My doggie likes to destroy basically everything he gets his mouth on. He's a killin' machine! (of toys). Shakes/bites/rips/eats/DESTROYS! He loves to play, but gosh. Needs to stop breaking every toy haha

Is that the reason why this monkey seems very prolonged?

More like be yelled at for NOT attending a family function.

Your best bet is to think of a way to order that doesn't involve your current account or credit card.

Translation: Create a new account, order 3 on there using a different CC, cancel the one you already ordered.

This way, you won't be charged for shipping twice.

Been collecting a massive number of stuffed monkeys lately (amassed over 100 in less than a year). Told my husband not to get screaming monkeys on ebay, if he waited long enough I could get some on woot.

I am happy that today I kept my word.

Thanks. I may just end up staying with one monkey. My fault I guess.

Yes...Gateway to awesomeness

We recently had relatives over from Hawaii, and they brought their little girl. I presented to her, as a gift, one of these insanely amazing woot monkeys, and she sat there, hitting it all night just so it would scream. I've come to learn, from an email, that this monkey is so annoying, that her parents are looking for a way to make it disappear.

This means my job is done here .

Why, yes, yes, it will. I only bought one single glow-in-the-dark cape monkey and then realized that I need to buy three at a time to satisfy my addiction (which is still unquenched... :S)

I'm in for 3 and can't wait to get them

wow this is pretty ridiculous, 20 minutes and still stuck at the same bar.

That's ok. You can be a looooooser like me. I only got one as well. Seems OMGOMGOMGPONIESOMG PONIES! since the shipping is the same for 3. Maybe we can get some Woot! Monkey Loser badges made up......

well I have two Dachshunds... if we even reach for the Screaming Monkey one runs and hides.. the other one wants to KILL it...

And I was hoping for a Bundle of Crops as I am waiting up to see my birthday begin at midnight!

ashleyalexander wrote:You all need to be nicer to Woot! they don't have to do Woot offs, & they don't have to give out bags of crap! Thanks for the fun day Woot!

actually they do since that's basically what makes them as popular as they are today. and we all know what popularity means = money aka revenue aka profit...ya know, it is a "business" right? they come up with these ideas to make more of a profit

The day mine arrived, I shot it at my wife as she was getting out of her car after work. I never knew she could jump that high!!!

NEVER happen!

Boy - people really have problems with reading-comprehension any more, huh?

It says "Take a good long look, Cincinnati.
This is the last time you’ll ever see me in this uniform...."

Cincinatti.

BENGALS.

Tiger-cape.

Ergo, this is the last of the tiger-cape Monkeys.

Wonder where he's going next?

Perhaps the Bundle of Crops will come at midnight since the team is moving in a different direction. All change is not good, all movement is not forward (unk).

Damnit

Either they have a million screaming monkeys tonight or no one is buying them... come on woot... I want to see what's next.

I say go for it. Here is my (at the time) 2.5 month old doing his Screaming Monkey impression:



Now at 8 months old he really appreciates his Daddy's Woot obsession:

LSU, LSU, LSU...

I've been waiting for this.

OK, I got three. Dunno what I am gonna do with them though...

You must not have been married very long...

I remember when having her "give me the silent treatment" was a PUNISHMENT!

"She still thinks it is..." -- he said laughing maniacally, thoroughly enjoying the ever-so-rare bit of peace and quiet ....

I'm game. "My 2nd Woot off and not only did I not get a "Breach of Contract", I also ended up with one stinkin monkey" Sounds a bit too long for a button though.

Wait, WAIT!, can we rewind this Woot-off? My immersion blender just failed an hour ago. Catastrophic equipment failure - teflon flakes, ruined soup, the whole lot.

Come on, put that badboy up on the block again.

Bling monkey at work has a jungle girlfriend on order.
