Slugtastic

There comes a time in every young man's life when he must ask himself an important question: what is a mono slug?

Is it a singular slug mechanical device, perhaps less desirable than the dual-slug or quad-slug model? Is it a slug that has contracted mono?

In Spanish, mono means "monkey," and so perhaps a mono slug is in actuality a fearsome jungle Monkey Slug predator that very slowly overcomes it's much faster, more intelligent and better-looking prey. Slurping a long at speeds upwards of 2 miles per decade, this "Mono" Slug will occasionally and accidentally overcome some sort of food that happens to be sleeping in it's gooey path. Count me out of any forthcoming jungle holidays. Yikes!

If you have any better ideas on the what a mono slug might be, I would be grateful for some help on this sticky matter.

Traditional slugs travel in packs and live underground in dens. Mono slugs are loners and considered the outsiders of the slug world. Mono slugs tend to 'do things their own way' and cut against the traditional slug grain.
Mono slugs have five o'clock shadows, regardless of what time it might be. Mono slugs don't keep time. Mono slugs make time do their homework.
Mono slugs have been known to have self-destructive habits, even going as far as salting themselves for attention. If slugs were X-Men, mono slugs would be the wolverines of slugs, minus the regeneration and really, really cool detractable titanium alloy blades.
Mono slugs never threw to the cutoff man in little league, or used the cheat code in Contra. Mono slugs are hitting on your girlfriend as we speak.
