The Beer Monkey

The Beer Monkey is a creature related to Loki, the trickster-god. He sits on your shoulder in the bar, urging you to have another drink, until you're way past a sensible limit. Then he waits for you to fall asleep, whereupon he sits on your face with his bollox in your mouth and plays bongos on your head.

And that's why you wake up with a throbbing headache and a mouth that tastes, well, like some dirty monkey's put his bollox in there.

BEWARE THE BEER MONKEY!

Reminds me of the concept of the "drunken monkey" that a martial arts instructor described to me once. The drunken monkey sits on your shoulder and whispers into your ear all your doubts and superfluous thoughts (e.g., "I'm so clumsy; I'll never get this; oh, wow, dude by the wall there has gorgeous cheekbones"), wrecking your self-confidence and concentration. The more you listen to your drunken monkey, the more likely you are to put your weight on the wrong foot and fall on your ass during some particularly precarious stage of the tai chi form.

The beer monkey must be a cousin of the drunken monkey. If you listen to the beer monkey it makes you more likely to fall on your ass just walking down the street ... and frequently makes people you otherwise wouldn't pay much attention to look startlingly attractive.
