False! There was this one time at the zoo where my boyfriend and I were sitting in the gorilla exhibit, and there was no one else in the room, and this huge mac daddy gorilla came and sat down right in front of us. So he just sat there and stared at us, and yeah, I looked him in the eye. We even touched hands through the glass. True story. Srsly. It was like, totally a Jane Goodall moment.
