Alt text - two panel comic. First panel, some kind of baboon is in a gas station using an ATM. Second panel, the baboon is smiling and throwing up double gnarly hand gestures at seeing its account balance is 4 raspberries.

Can someone explain the humor?

There were experiments a few years ago that attempted to see if some primates could learn the concept of money. A coin could be used in exchange for a piece of fruit. Some primates were able to understand that the coin represented fruit.

Those primates discovered prostitution soon after.

I don't think it's meant to be funny.

It is, however, pretty rad.

Petah, why is that baboon so happy about his raspberries?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I'd like to think that 1 raspberry is the equivalent to 5 or 10 bananas. With 1 banana being worth about $10 US, baboon is doing just fine.

I kinda think this would be better with bananas

I only have three raspberries, but they're functioning as servers instead of providing profit for bankers who are bribing me off with a measly interesst rate.
