Monkeys And People Who Think Monkeys Are People

Tonight, Primetime continues their series on "The Outsiders" (people who live among us but are weird in some way) with a special on childless couples who treat their pet monkeys ("monkids") like children. They're a lot like childless couples who treat their pet dogs like children, but considered less normal, or childless couples who treat their dolls like children, but considered more normal. Whatever, internet: crazy obsessed people and monkeys equals DVR gold. The preview alone is worth watching: the monkey knows exactly what french fries are! (Food!)

Puchin monkeys are a lot like little people.

And cute as hell.
