a monkephant is a mammal that has the size and long nose of an elephant and the fur, tail and aposable thumbs of a monkey. Monkephants can be found in their native homeland deep in the equatorial rainforests of Africa eating banananas and swinging from trees while creating much havoc. Monkephants do NOT make good househeld pets. Ever.

Get the monkephant mug.In the post-apocalyptic radio series "Tales from the Afternow," Server Monks are "monks that get a cybernetic jack in the crown of the head, usually between the eyes on the forehead, to allow them to connect to the Internet and walk through a virtual world. They worship Server as a god and are the masters of the virtual world. They reside in temples and have acolytes and petitioners that cater to their needs."
In popular parlance, the term is sometimes used to indicate a person with an intuitive and deep affinity for technology, or someone who needs to constantly be "plugged in" in order to feel comfortable.

"Since I got a phone with Internet access, I've become such a Server Monk. It makes me nervous to be without Wikipedia even for a second!"

Get the Moncks Corner mug.Very religous member of the jigaboo race who follows the teachings of Islam. Can be seen every morning waking up from their 40 water hang over to face west and worship the nearest Cadillac dealership.

Get the porch monk mug.A variant strain of science fiction where lovable technophile monks are the heroes of misadventures unfolding in a post-apocalyptic era. These wacky abbots and friars play crucial roles in preserving scientific and philosophical knowledge, even though it gets warped and twisted through the filter of religious superstition, often to ridiculous extremes. Bonus points for radioactive mutants, deformities, plague, witch burnings, alien visitations, nuclear fallout. Like other -punk genres, this one has nothing to do with punk rock, except maybe if you count the mutants.
Contrast with cyberpunk and steampunk, two related sci-fi "punk" sub-genres.

Walter Miller's A Canticle for Leibowitz and Neal Stephenson's Anathem are the twin towers of Monk Punk, a sci-fi genre which might as well include The Name of the Rose, since Europe's Dark Ages were pretty much a post-apocalyptic nightmare of their own.

Get the monk punk mug.A flounder that has an unnatural ardour for 'mguu'. Often looks like they're walking on a peg leg. Overly expressive when talking (a lot of head movement, hand gestures, shaking of the face much like Richard Nixon).
