Wow! Get out your penny whistles and pop caps, it’s April 24th and World Laboratory Animal Day! Oh boy, let’s celebrate! Today’s the day the Chimpanzee covered in human lipstick and hairspray saunters up to your doorstep and offers a year’s supply of cheap Mary Kay cosmetics! I can’t wait!

Seriously.

This is a day? It is. And it’s now. Yippee. Enjoy some films.

Yep. It’s about animal testing.

The show’s entire premise is about two lab mice seeking world domination.

The Secret of NIMH

In the film (as in the book), Mrs. Frisby, a mouse preparing to move her family from a dangerous piece of farm land, learns from the rats of NIMH that her husband was responsible for helping many of them escape a testing facility where they were given human-like intelligence.

Splice

What have we learned, class? Quit trying to play God. Or at the very least, stop fucking with DNA. For real.

Monkeys hate the HELL out of us.
