How to argue ineffectively with a two year old

Seth:  What is it?
Me: A hippopotamus.
Seth:  No POTAMUS!  Hippo.

Seth:  What is it?
Me:  A Rhinoceros
Seth: NO RHINOCEROS!  Rhino.

Seth: What is it?
Me: A Chimpanzee.
Seth:  No panzee. Monkey.
Me:  No, it's a chimpanzee.
Seth:  NO!  MONKEY!
Me:  He doesn't have a tail.  Monkeys have tails.  He's a chimp.
Seth:  [totally in my face]  NO MOMMY! NO CHIMP! MON-KEEEEEEEY!
Waits a few seconds . . .
Seth:  What is it?
Me: A monkey Seth.

Seth:  What is it?
Me:   A horse.  [It's really a unicorn]
