The monkey bars

Last year, as my boyfriend and I were driving someplace I spotted someone with extreme ape-hanger handlebars on their motorcycle.
For those of you who don't know what an ape-hanger is, it looks like this:



Though that's a pretty extreme ride, what with the tailpipes sticking up in the back like that.
But when I saw a similar bike, instead of saying, "Whoah, look at those ape-hangers" my mind did a Freudian slip and what came out was "Whoa, look at those monkey bars."
My boyfriend started laughing hysterically. "Don't you mean ape hangers?" he said.
I felt like such a fool. But he won't let me live it down, and just last week, as we were driving back to the airport from Lake Placid, N.Y., we saw some bikers heading the opposite direction with one rider who had ape-hangers on his bike.
My boyfriend decides to stick his head out the window and yell, "Yay, monkey bars!" at the guy as he drove past.
I bet he'll still be doing that when we're 80. Though, will they have ape hangers and motorcycles still?
