"You could either get cute and clever with 'Kickin' it...or 'Groovin' it...or do something that's just a curious abstraction. So people might think, 'Okay, well, monkeys do squat, but they don't talk, and if they do talk, apparently they're very truthful, if they happen to be squatting."¹—Dana Carvey
