Which would you rather have?

I am posting this due to a rediculous argument that is raging in the office I seem to work at.  The argument is only rediculous because the superiority of having your very own monkey ever came into question.  Well, that and I am bored out of my friggin mind at work today. 

Thoughts?

Live-in monkey anyday. They're cute, fun and a chick magnet.

Where as a robot would just scare the crap outta me, I've seen Irobot...i know the future!

This is a tougher dilemma than I am used to.

It depends, do the robots have a berserk kill-mode?

Oil stains don't smell as bad as Monkey stains.

Therefore Robot > Monkey

Well, I suppose such a function could be programmed into the robot, however, monkeys can fling poo.  This does not cause the destruction of the target, however, it does provide much entertainment and will certainly cause the target much grief in the way of ridicule and unsightly odor.

Of course... monkeys can be deadly as well...

Bah, I gotta go with monkey. They're just too darn cute to pass up.

Best of both worlds.

Killer-robot monkey

if the robot cleans the house on its own, robot.

If not, monkey, cause that'd be a fun pet.

Yes, and when every single person has a monkey in their home, it will begind . . .

The Planet of the Apes!

The idea of a monkey is great. Monkey in reality is another thing entirely. A friend of mine had a pair of spider monkeys, the feces throwing is a great experiece.

Monkey would be rather cool to have. Now you just need to get some ferrets and have a war! Why ferrets, I dont know.

Depends on the robot.

The only primate I would want to have is a personal gorilla, so I could sick it on people. But since a gorilla is an ape and not a monkey, I'd have to go with a robot. I'd like my own personal Ahnuld to go around shooting people in the kneecaps at my request. I'd just have to carry around an EMP gun in case it became self aware and wanted to terminate all humans.

i said monkey cuz i think having a monkey would be bad ass

Does the robot fling poo at you?  

fulmanfu

trust me. having a little monkey as a pet seems cool as hell.
until you actualy have one.
smelly, disobediant, and hella lot more money than you can immagine in diapers. its cool for the first time you introduce it to your friends and what not , but the novelty go's away very quick and your left with bills and stink and not really wanting him around and its not exactly welcome in friends houses a second time.

same as a pig, there was a fad a bit back where alot of people started having pigs as pets. it ended pretty quick as the bills started piling up.

i sort of have half a robot. few years back me and a couple friends started building one wanted to get on robot wars. figured out later that we weren't very smart and now all it does is shoot tennis balls at my dog

Infliction

Yeah I'd have to go with a robot monkey, with the poo-flinging feature of course disabled.

   I'd have to go with a robot. I'd give him a stunner and he could protect me, clean the house, carry stuff for me, and do all sorts of stuff. I mean, it would be like always having an encyclopedia with you. Plus, ladies love robots. Sure, monkeys are cute, but they're not clean, and the can't help you with chores or your homework. Or, for that matter, disable your enemies.

Depends on which one it would be most ethical to engage in intercourse with.

I think it's more ethical to engage in intercourse with a robot. Have you ever seen those sex toys that require batteries? Well that's really similar to a "robot". People use them all the time so really a robot is just the next step up.....or down, depends on perspective lol.

I put monkey I'd likle one as a pet but TBH if i could have anything at home i wanted either pass time or clean the house it would be a 25yo 36DD pornstar/cleaner/cook that way i could have hours of fun plus food on the table and a clean house to come home too after work
