A parable passed down for generations describing the futility of the unintelligent to perform simple tasks.

Since ancient times, when an imbecile, ill-advised coworker or friend has attempted an assignment beyond their capabilities, they are often compared to a monkey endlessly trying to fix an engine that won't start by beating on it with a hammer, because monkeys do not possess the skills of a mechanic.

After being shown how twice, Dan never did learn how to open the fence, so it rained on him a few hours later. He was just like a Monkey Beating An Engine With A Hammer that day.

Those boatington bumps all over your arms and legs after covid vaxxine injection must be caused by "anxiety" just like the small fiber neuropathy and microvascular inflammation in your brain

beating army

A common colloquialism for "jerking off" at the US Naval Academy. Perhaps the most popular pastime among male midshipmen, due to a natural aversion towards dark siding, a general lack of attractive young women, and the ever present fear of being SAPR'd. Not to be confused with the female equivalent, "plebing your cover", which is a play on the term for the way freshmen (plebes) carry their covers (hats) by spreading their hand on the inside and carrying by their side.

I caught my roommate beating army last night. I'm not comfortable in the room anymore.
