edit: I showed my wife the comments on this post and she said "I like that everyone is agreeing with me."

I still love the monkey. Oh, and the wife.

I got it from Good Will. There are three things I got there that my wife hates and I love. I don't have an antagonistic relationship with her in general, but those three things were items I needed.

I'm willing to yield on almost everything else, but how can you say no to a creepy coconut monkey?

You're clearly a stronger person than I.

Personal preference over matrimonial harmony. It's a bit of a no-brainer, yes?

If I really thought this would upset my wife, I wouldn't have gotten it. I sometimes enjoy when we play the game of annoying each other, but if I thought something would genuinely upset her, I wouldn't do it. Teasing is fun for both participants. Actually being a jerk, less so.

You're an excellent spouse. Sorry for the over analysis.

Thank you for saying so. There is no need to apologize.
