The second one is like 'OH MY FUCKING GOD, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!' First one's like move bitch, I'm learning

[–]sheerheartattack 165 points166 points ago

There is no need to be upset.

This gif never ceases to confuse or entertain me.

[–]GernBlanstonInLove 100 points101 points ago

Are your jimmies rustled?

[–]DustBreakOverlord 2 points3 points ago

I'm officially giggling uncontrollably in my living room.

I love how they just leave the spirit squad guy's head unedited.

[–]Fuglypump 15 points16 points ago

it must be very warm in all those jimmies.

[–]Lord_of_Womba 7 points8 points ago

You know I'm fairly sure that gorilla is from the box of some organic cereal.

[–]GernBlanstonInLove 27 points28 points ago

Oh? also

[–]Lord_of_Womba 4 points5 points ago

Hmm the puffin cereal may be a different brand then. I used to see them back when I was maybe 8 or so in a little organic section at kroger.

[–]Fagtardicus 7 points8 points ago

Gorilla Munch, i beleve

[–]Lord_of_Womba 4 points5 points ago

Yeah somethin like that. I think they have a puffin cereal too.

[–]pm079 1 point2 points ago

Here's some context

[–]stash0606 1 point2 points ago

Walt Jr?

[–]bnj7146 4 points5 points ago

Hi, asking this question again cause all I got last time were a few downvotes and a lot of people wanting to know the same answer: What's the correlation between the Jimmies gorilla and the flying lawnmower? Does anyone know? Is there even one at all, or is it totally random and silly?

[–]wutz 2 points3 points ago

the lawnmower flying away is unsettling, and the gorilla is there to make sure you know that everything is alright

[–]Nextil -1 points0 points ago

I don't think there's any particular relationship between them, but I guess one way to look at it is: the lawnmower is "trolling" by flying away, and the gorilla acts as its face, taunting you.

[–]mwguthrie 28 points29 points ago

Holy shit, I found this gorilla on a cereal box at the grocery store: http://i.imgur.com/87aOV.jpg

[–]NapoleonBonerfart 94 points95 points ago

nice detective work

[–]jaynone 16 points17 points ago

Thats how I felt when I went to a walmart supercentre and saw the cereal for the first time.

[–]itsasillyplace 6 points7 points ago

That's how I felt when I acquired a computer and an internet connection for the first time two years ago, and I saw all the memes for the first time.

[–]n8bit 1 point2 points ago

That's how I felt when I discovered I had Celiac Disease.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]sendpwrend 0 points1 point ago

the cereal is gluten free.

[–]enflamed_anal_hairs 11 points12 points ago

I didn't know that, actually.

[–]PirateMug 3 points4 points ago

Yeah I thought it was from a book.

[–]Lord_of_Womba 2 points3 points ago

I just made this realization a few comments up and then saw this. I was too slow.

[–]chantistar 1 point2 points ago

Oh I've had that!

[–]dirice87 1 point2 points ago

I didn't think this was possible but somehow we've killed this meme. I saw my 12 year old cousin and his friends saying this out loud and that's basically the funeral right there folks.

[–]Joeliosis 0 points1 point ago

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/that-really-rustled-my-jimmies

Oddly it seems to have originated from funnyjunk, which leads me to believe it probably started here or 4chan long before that.

[–]Joeliosis 0 points1 point ago

I didn't mean the phrase either... I was just posting when it "hit the scene" again XD

[–]NoTimeForThat -3 points-2 points ago

Alpha as fuck

[–]Genmaken 0 points1 point ago

I this it's more like the second one going "I think I'm gonna eat it... yeah... it looks tasty." and the first one is like GTFO, you're a vegetarian!.

[–]meleeman09 0 points1 point ago

Move bitch, I'm Evolving.

[–]GuffDaddy 172 points173 points ago

"Hmm, this thing appears to be ..."

"HEY, WATCHA LOOKIN' AT?"

"Damn it, Larry, get the fuck out of here."

[–]HipsterSC 67 points68 points ago

"Shut the fuck up Donny."

[–]tower1 52 points53 points ago

"Is it going to hurt us?" "No, Donny this bug is a coward."

[–]the-horace 34 points35 points ago

Fucking nihilist caterpillars.

[–]redditrobert 21 points22 points ago

Say what you will about the tenets of national butterflyism, at least it's an ethos.

[–]UnholyDemigod 7 points8 points ago

I am the Silverback

[–]tower1 3 points4 points ago

Say what you will about the tenants of National Catepillarism, but at least it's an ethos.

[–]HorseMeatSandwich 5 points6 points ago

You're out of your element.

[–]stewyman 4 points5 points ago

classic Donny.

[–]tre101 1 point2 points ago

Classic Larry

[–]Wulfay 54 points55 points ago

Video source if anyone was curoius

[–]tortortilla 46 points47 points ago

From the comments:

And we are entertained by the gorillas being entertained by a caterpiller, one step up on the evolutionary chain ...

.

I wonder whats watching us? o.o

[–]uk2knerf 37 points38 points ago

The caterpillers

[–]Revoluzzer 1 point2 points ago

Mice, actually. But I see it worked on you.

[–]strallweat[S] 9 points10 points ago

That's awesome! Thank you for finding that.

[–]Luthos 4 points5 points ago

It appears the second gorilla was the original caterpillar watcher. So now the first gorilla is just an ass for pushing him out of the way.

[–]thats_a_risky_click 3 points4 points ago

every time I see a gif I like, I come to the comments looking for the video. Thanks

[–]enflamed_anal_hairs 2 points3 points ago

Thank you so much.

[–]Voldan 92 points93 points ago

First gorilla: Gettin' real tired of your shit George

[–]ibreatheweed 14 points15 points ago

Second gorilla: Then take your head out of my ass

Third gorilla: Jimmies, everywhere, rustling with the caterpillars of Babylon

[–]Drink_Clorox_and_Die 41 points42 points ago

I was waiting for one to eat it.

[–]Veregx 0 points1 point ago

I think it's on the opposite side of the glass.

[–]Drink_Clorox_and_Die 1 point2 points ago

I think you're right but it still would've been funny

[–]SaloL 60 points61 points ago

Oh no, they're learning how to learn! It's only a matter of time guys...

[–]prose-before-hoes 23 points24 points ago

You know what would be awesome? If primates gain human intelligence but we end up being totally cool with them. I can finally have a monkey roommate.

[–]EasyReader 29 points30 points ago

Monkey roommates are the worst

[–]prose-before-hoes 20 points21 points ago

No, you don't get it. You have no idea how badly I want to be best friends with a monkey. It's literally been a life long dream for me. If there was a monkey-human war I'd probably join the monkeys because I'd want them to like me.

[–]morpheousmarty 0 points1 point ago

monkeys-before-bros then.

[–]PuroMichoacan 12 points13 points ago

They made a movie about it.

[–]DudeWithTheNose 0 points1 point ago

i'm sure they won't be too happy about being locked up in cages.

[–]morpheousmarty 1 point2 points ago

Most roommates resent the cage for a few weeks, but then the Stockholm syndrome sets in and it's clear sailing.

[–]WIDE_OPEN_BEAVERS 32 points33 points ago

Good, I'm hoping I can settle down with an intelligent female who can protect me and my jimmies.

[–]ForgottenPhoenix 8 points9 points ago

Same thing happens when a girl posts her picture on reddit.

[–]_broderick_ 43 points44 points ago

Jimmies were rustled.

[–]Former_Manc 14 points15 points ago

Seeing things like this just really puts the world into perspective for me. Here I am, thinking I'm a human and we're the only ones curious about our world at the creatures in it, and it's like we don't often think about or see other creatures just as curious about all the other life out there like we are. This is just fascinating for me.

[–]LurkVoter 11 points12 points ago

Apes, elephants, whales, dolphins, the smartest dogs and the smartest birds are all at human toddler level intelligence. They are self-aware, curious and can use tools.

[–]Gemini4t 1 point2 points ago

And soon they will learn to unite against us.

[–]strikerx 27 points28 points ago

[–]jemman 0 points1 point ago

Not to get all PETA on your ass, but maybe the creepy part is that these "intelligent creatures" are behind bars for our entertainment.

[–]WanderingSpaceHopper 0 points1 point ago

Clearly not inteligent enoug to get out :))

[–]Hempage 0 points1 point ago

But when they do... they'll definitely have a grudge against us...

[–]mporco511 3 points4 points ago

[–]runningdead 11 points12 points ago

I wonder who's watching us, while we're watching the gorillas, while the gorillas are watching the caterpillar, and God knows what the caterpillar is looking at....

[–]riconoir28 24 points25 points ago

the carterpillar sees all

[–]Granite-M 1 point2 points ago

Nobody ever suspects the butterfly...

[–]DiaperParty 0 points1 point ago

Are you seriously plagiarizing the YouTube comments, you fucking loser?

[–]runningdead 1 point2 points ago

Lol what?

[–]JonnyGoodfellow 5 points6 points ago

"So I'm talking to this chick and - hold up.... the fuck is that?!"

"Caterpillar."

"Shit looks fucking weird but yo, anyways man, I'm talking to this chick right..."

[–]anal_blazers 5 points6 points ago

Looks like me and my buddy when there are boobs on the computer screen.

[–]rocknroll_heart 2 points3 points ago

i like how the one gorilla is legit interested in watching the caterpillar, and when the other one acts like a giant troll, he's all like, 'bitch, i was here first'

[–]ticklefights 4 points5 points ago

tha fuck outta here nigga

[–]iSueEveryone 1 point2 points ago

[–]colossusden 1 point2 points ago

DONE

[–]Saint-Peer 1 point2 points ago

Looks like those moments where you're playing on your phone, handheld console or whatever, and a little toddler shoves their face in front of your screen. That's what the second gorilla made me think of.

[–]Stingray191 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of when my friend and I are watching something on the computer. I have terrible eyesight so if I forget to bring my glasses I have to lean in super close and end up blocking her view.
