A applaud your painting ability, but what ????
The associate is leaving work and leaving the analyst in charge of doing all the work. The analyst says it is not a problem but in his head follows up with for you to choke on those bananas, is it? Meaning it is not a problem for you to choke on those bananas. Meaning fuck you douche.
This works because they are both monkey's and the analyst is holding bananas.
Actually, in my interpretation of it, the associate is holding the bananas. And the analyst would wish that the associate chokes on his/her bananas. Because you're right, the analyst's full message is "fuck you douche".
Also, notice how the analyst is faking a smile. And that he only says "not a problem". In the associate's eyes, the analyst is being super nice; the analyst's malicious intentions are unbeknownst to him.
Ya, that's pretty much what I was saying.
You have spent so much time in excel that you forgot the paint fill-in button. (Instead of spray painting everything lol)
Did anyone else notice "ASS ociate"
Nice! But what got me confused in the beginning is how i read the analyst's thought first, as opposed to the Ass ociates.
Best thing i've read all day. hands down.
I like it but people in western cultures usually read from left to right.
haha shit. That made me laugh. SB for you.
rofl
Good stuff. Keep them coming!
I'd be really impressed if you said you did that without the use of a mouse.
Just noticed it said X-Sell. The devil is in the details with you Midas.

Btw guys...I'm looking to name our young simian protagonist...
Any suggestions?
The overall composition or design of the painting is what guides the viewer's eye. Have you ever looked at a painting or photograph and felt it was off balance? One of the big differences between amateur snapshots and a professional piece such as this is the quality of the composition. In an amateur photo, perhaps all the action is centered on the left, with nothing but empty space on the right. The lopsidedness gives you a sense of unease. (Of course an artist may use this unease deliberately as well.) However in this, a perfect equilibrium is attained and we can truly appreciate the Analyst in terms of his position in the obvious hierarchy presented to us.
