Of course we're making assumptions. It's the internet. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm guessing most of us have no idea who you are. Naturally, we're going to take the "What's up home dawgs" as the kind of intro the average obnoxious teenager makes. The few grown men I know who say that get harassed for it endlessly because it makes them sound like an obnoxious teenager.



I assume from your subsequent responses that you are not the average teenager. My bad. But look at your post from a stranger's point of view - I saw a question identical to the one posed by the stereotypical "I know nothing about monitors and want to spend less than $100 on it total" person.



Sorry that exploded so terribly, and sorry you're taking it so personally.



It'd be neat to see more varanus melinus, varanus yuwoni (tricolored monitor, not sure I have the latin right), and just about anything australian.

The two that I was thinking of when I stated special permits were the two endangered fruit eating species, Varanus olivaceus and Varanus mabitang.
