What is a porch monkey?
a term dating back to American 17th century colonial times, that originally referred to african american slaves who when not working would sit and talk with other slaves on the porch of their plantation homes. it did begin as a racial slur and only in the last few decades has it been broadened to also mean lazy people. clerks II did not by any means popularize (or for legal terms on my part, endorse) the term, they just made it known to younger, ignorant viewers of the movie.
