Buying a monkey

A situation in which someone who has recently come into a very large sum of money goes and buys weird, unusual, or taboo things, simply because they can. The phrase itself is derived from Michael Jackson, who bought a pet chimpanzee named Bubbles in the 80's following the success of his album Thriller.

The bit between the Gunt and the Fanny. On a fat bird, the hairy top of the fanny will bulge out like a monkeys head.
