When the little apes get too fat and lazy to run around the yard, they become porch monkeys- - - -it's an evolution thing! When it gets too hot and humid out on the porch, they go inside, turn on the air conditioner and the computer, and spend all day trolling internet chat rooms. I always thought when it was too hot for sittin' on da porch, they went in and ate chilled watermelon and drank grape soda. WTF?

I hear folk using the term “Porch Monkey” without understanding its origins.
The term is correctly “Poarch Monkey” referring to the Poarch Creek Indian tribe most specifically in the Delta areas of Lower Alabama.
It came about with the cross breeding of the Africans and French with the tribe. Its a unique “Creole” breed of peoples.
My next education will be with the term “Raising Cain” grew up in west PA with that term don't hear it much in Utah

Grape soda? Come now, everyone knows it’s properly called “purpa drank”

Johnny Loco,
Ever been with any Poarch Creeks?

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."

Yeah, I don’t believe that for a minute. On the other hand the commonly misunderstood term “jungle bunny” was originally about a family named Jingle who raised prize black rabbits for Florida state fair. When an especially nice specimen of black rabbit was spotted people would say, “There goes a nice jingle bunny.” Over time, “jingle” somehow became “jungle” and they started applying it to black people instead of just black rabbits.
