Chimps are scary AF, I'm never going near one

People do not grasp how strong they can be and they are wild animals.

While I like large cats, I’m not going to have a tiger in my home.

Maybe they could make a movie or TV show about a whole planet of such apes

What, like, if they evolved and took over or something? Lol that's ridiculous nobody would watch that.

I despise chimps (and monkeys) with a passion. Saying this to people gets me treated like saying I torture puppies for fun, which I most certainly do not, but I just think they're evil little fuckers. I would never harm one, because it has every right to live, but I don't want to go see them at the zoo, I don't want anything to do with them, and I don't understand the fascination seemingly everyone has with them. They creep me out. They're like little humans, except when a person gets mad for a stupid reason you can at least try to talk them down and reason with them before they get out of control, a chimp will just rip your face off.
