But who am I going to test my medication, haircare products, and knife fighting skills on?

This looks like Puckmaren from Flight of the Navigator.

So, does this mean I'll have to get rid of my life comp...err...my pet howler monkey? He does a great job of waking me up in the morning, but the neighbors complain. A lot. Could be a win win, but I'll miss George.

If I want something that throws its own poop, I'll decide to have kids.

This is a great blow to monkey lovers. My dad had a squirrel monkey growing up. His name was Chipper and he was an adorable little trouble maker. The idea that this won't be possible for my children and my childrens' children is a depressing thought. My idea of America is dead.

What about helper monkeys for the handicapped? Are those real or made-up?

We can still keep human primates as pets? Sweet!

Any pictures of anybody slapping the monkey? I'd settle for someone chocking a chicken.

The monkey in the photo is just adorable!! I do have to say though, animal lover that I am...I just would never want to have a pet that had to wear a diaper.
