it had nothing to do with who that person is (nor that person's gender in case you're wondering)
it just seemed like a fun opportunity for a bait-and-switch joke, like that thing where there are two things and you describe one and then you say it's the other one
you need to think about the implications/ramifications of things you say
i'm not even sure what ramifications i could or can think of, other than the rather superficial one that is allegedly criticizing a woman for her appearance by applying "gorilla" as a descriptor
i thought you said you had no connection to this picture other than being amused that it showed up in search results? i certainly don't, and thus this superficial suggestion is pretty much irrelevant
edit: i guess there's the treatment-of-animals aspect of this thing, because of who Harambe was and because the thread involved a cat and a ferret, but your complaint was about "gorilla" specifically, not "Harambe"
edit: is there something race-related? after scratching the bottom of my mental barrel for possible strands of bigotry i think there's some racist usage that involves comparing black people to apes...but that's just several mental hoops to jump through before i can even make a connection here
ugh that makes me feel dirty just to post that i know that exists
(i'd not normally mention that it makes me feel dirty just to think about it, and frankly speaking i found myself not wanting to even think about something so vile at all, but apparently some people here question whether i'm sufficiently sensitive so i actually need to point out that i do indeed find it vile and off-putting)

[snip] edit: is there something race-related?
The first one is the issue, yeah. But I'll leave it at that, since I doubt Inane wants more.
