786! Come up with a MonkeyFilter ad campaign / logo / jingle / catchphrase / marketing ploy / publicity stunt to attract / repel new members!
  • Free poo flinging with every double post!
  • we could always hire a l33t h4x0r to get the "New User" button on MeFi to redirect to Monkeyfilter...
  • we could leave pseudo-intellectual comments on bigname blogs and then link back to here. or maybe we can link to that movie file where the monkey scratches its ass, smells its finger and falls off the log.
  • two words: spacekittybits.com +redirect
  • i still say we should have a Special Simian Award to invite odd/quirky/weirdly fun people to join. first up, Jim Loy.
  • Does anybody know somebody who is a member of the blue? Can you have them recommend us for people who want to be new members? Better yet, if anybody here is a member create a post about how they're all elitist bastards and anybody who wants to belong to a similar (but obviously better) community should come here. :)
  • swive, that site is just a cheap MonkeyFilter wannabe. Anyone who would click "New Member" over there would *not* make a good Monkey. *cough*
  • Hey!
  • Button Button More monkeying later.
  • Fark Classified Ad
  • Argh : then *shudder* farkers would get in.
  • the F*rk ad would say: "Philosophical debate, well-reasoned argument, and thoughtful news discussion". That should do it. /dusts_hands
  • Free sex-ed book with every membership! Join Me! (I mean... Join Now!)
  • "Everything's Comin' Up Monkey!" or "The Oop that Refreshes! tm"
  • We could take the old Burma Shave approach: "For links, debates and news off-kilter, swing on over to MonkeyFilter" Or maybe we should just go for the direct approach: "You'll go apesh*t for MonkeyFilter
  • Lose Free Time Now! Ask Me How!
  • "Get in good with the new regime while you have the chance, pitiful worms." "Lower user numbers get first dibs on immortality treatments."
  • and we need more members why? i know! we could tell everyone to join to see a man cut off his feet live on the web.... no, wait, that's old news. (everyone scurries over to "cut off my feet" to find it abandoned.)
  • Why not take down MeFi again? That seemed to work last time.
  • OR.....Join Monkeyfilter and you, too, can have a chance to win a night with a lesbian virgin! Oh, wait, on second thought, we probably don't want to encourage that type of member. I was trying for funny and realize that flashboy could have pulled this one off brilliantly. I just can't match his wit.
  • We need a jingle. To the tune of Helter Skelter [WAV, c. 3Mb]: Well do you, don't you want me to make you I previewed first so excuse my mistake, you Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer You may type quickly but I post faster Look out! Monkey Filter Monkey Filter Monkey Filter Look out! Monkeybashi She's coming down fast Yes she is
  • We don't need no stinkin' monkeys!
  • goetter: brilliant!

  • The Helter Skelter mp3 made my day.
  • This is good. Cheers.
  • Get those pesky parasites out of your back: MonkeyFilter!! or MonkeyFilter: Not only your pets need gromming...
  • This is good. Cheers. I think I poste dthat in the wrong thread. I have no idea what thread it was meant to be jin now, either. Damn.
  • dng: You need some beer. Here, try this one to find out how much. MoFi! Better than CoFi in da Mo-ning? Never mind.
  • MonkeyFilter: It's all [banana]. props to certainsome1 in the book thread
  • 213 pints of beer!
  • Chateau Marmoset
  • [banana for goetter]
  • *LIVE* video feed of mastication with REAL bananas! or Pit your intellect against the supercharged sex drive of an adolescent bonobo! I'm not really sure what that second one means
  • mexican : I don't know either, but it sounds like the premise for a hot new reality tv show.
  • 991! Counting down to member #1000...
  • I'm confused, I thought this person was 1000 already...
  • Does this mean we can start making fun of the 1kers?
  • if you deign to interact with them. *sniffs, adjusts monocle*
  • User 973 is sniffing at 1K-ers.
  • Just wait...next he'll get all the petebests to start sniffing at the 1K-ers. On a side note, the first several times I saw petebest, I thought it said petebeast...That is all.You may not go about your business.
