Monkeys vs. The Pet Theory

Over the years pet owners and zoologist argued that monkeys in particular, disregarding ancestry, have come to make unique pets. However--Oh, forget it. I'll get straight to the point!

No, I do not think a monkey would make a good pet. One, when the monkey gets to a certain age they become less obedient. Two, they are powerful brutes that could rip my face off--never, would I want to underestimate them. Lastly, I am not fond of monkeys. Certain type of monkeys I would consider, but overall the answer would still be no. Besides, I don't even know how to take care of a monkey. Of course I'll do the basic care-taking: feeding, bathing, and interaction. Though, everything else is alienated to me. So, as a result, I do not think monkeys will make good pets.
