Can't it be both?

So, where did this come from? I'm just curious . . .

[bertine.livejournal.com]

No!!

I was cleaning out my inbox and two people had somethingmonkey as their username and it struck me as weird since I have found monkeys creepy since I was a kid. I am not sure why anyone would think they were cool.

Monkeys rock! Especially the flying kind!

[bertine.livejournal.com]

creepy, creepy, creepy!!!!

[polyranger.livejournal.com]

No way! They have opposable thumbs but they stayed in the trees to play and fling poo.

Besides...Monkeys run the internet.

Go monkey!

They are not cute. They are creepy.

i got no deal with the monkeys. i'm realizing that have issues with lots of animals, actually - i don't trust cats, fish or birds, either. if i thought about it, i could come up with more.

it probably doesn't help that we watched "28 days later" last night which starts off with raging monkeys. that was when i really realized i'm not cool with monkeys.

I am pretty sure you are fairly savvy, so that being said, why did you ask this poll when you
1) Knew you thought monkeys were creepy
and
2)Knew most people would say they are cool?

[joeylemur.livejournal.com]

But most importantly: do you count lemurs as monkeys?

[avecvu.livejournal.com]

I agree with this sentiment. I think that monkeys are cool in theory but I would be creeped out by a monkey in real life.

I didn't think most people would say they are cool.

I am ok with most animals because I don't see them alot but the whole naming yourself as a username after a monkey is weird. Also, the phrase "code monkey" which just annoyes me.

[bertine.livejournal.com]

I actually have no idea. Do they?

Re: Go monkey!

[akorahil.livejournal.com]

Wow, I knew most people WOULD say they are cool.
I guess I am in tune more with INTARWEB than you*







*At least with respect to the coolness of monkeys...

Well, they're of the Order Primate, but a different Sub-Order than what would be classically defined as 'monkey'.
