Me: "We don't need a pet monkey."
Henry: "I would take care of him."
Me: "Henry, we aren't getting a pet monkey."
Henry: "I've been reading about monkeys online and they make great house pets."
Me: "No, no monkey."
Henry: "You can teach a monkey some great tricks."
Me: "No pet monkey."
Henry: "I'd name my monkey 'Trotsky'"
Me: "You amuse me."
Henry: "The monkey would amuse you more."

I would also name my monkey Trotsky
monkeys are vicious. my kids want one and I am resting secure in the fact that at this time in our state they are illegal. I saw a website about pet monkeys written by zoologists who specialize in them and the whole point of it, complete with pictures of what happens when your monkey goes ape on you...is to dissuade people from owning monkeys as pets.
