Watching the 'Jungles' episode of Planet Earth II reminds me that we had a spider monkey.. (briefly)
My mom was really soft-hearted, and couldn't bear animal cruelty, and one day, walking past the village pet shop she saw a baby spider monkey in a cage - not a big Safari Park job with room to swing from limb to limb, a cage that'd be claustrophobic for a tortoise - so she bought it..

I got back from school and saw the latest addition to our family - not a competitive brother or odious sister, but something that would make me 2kool4skool, big time - I was trying to work it out in my head - obviously I couldn't go in and say: 'OMG, WE'VE GOT A SPIDER MONKEY!' it'd have to be more, 'yeah, I mean since we've had the spider monkey it's been..'

A couple of hours later, my dad got back, perfunctorally kissed my mom on the cheek, cast a speculative glance at us kids (this would be the cue for mom to advise him of any minor transgressions we may have committed) and settled down to read the paper.
