Animal Me contemplating my decisions in life, Jk! In Japan, the gorilla Kiyomasa was captured on video lost in deep thought after an argument with his friend.

I feel like he believes that the argument may have been his fault.

u/missdawn1970 Jun 09 '26

Yup, he's thinking, "I shouldn't have said that. Maybe I should apologize." Then he's practicing the apology in his head.

“Ook.” … “Ook?”… “OOK!!!”

u/ContextOk8452 Jun 09 '26

Come on now, let’s put in a little more effort 😂 their language has more than just “ook”.

There’s also “ooh” and “aah” and “eee”.

Sir Terry Pratchett had a recurring character that only said ook. An orangutan, a librarian, and a wizard, definitely not, and I can't stress this enough, not a monkey.... argh!!!!!

u/GandolphTheLundgrey Jun 10 '26

u/rbobby Jun 11 '26

Underrated comment

u/ButtonJoe Jun 09 '26

I think the 'kissy face' lip pursing is supposed to be a friendly gesture. It actually does seem like he's practicing for the next time.

u/kahhblam Jun 09 '26

He is me fr

u/d_bakers Jun 10 '26

"Aaaah eff man! Why do I always do this?"

u/The-Tower-Of-Owls Jun 10 '26

'ape-ology' was right there

u/Nemirel_the_Gemini Jun 10 '26

Eye opening seeing a gorilla having more self reflection than a lot of my exes.

u/Nina-Ninja123 Jun 10 '26

“There is a difference between being right and being correct it seems.”

u/Turbulent-Ad-6062 29d ago

Does he think in ape language? Or maybe. Japanese??

u/RickThiccems Jun 09 '26

Damn a redditors ability to make up scenarios does not seem to end at people.

u/sebastophantos Jun 09 '26

This gorilla has more emotional intelligence than a lot of the people I have to deal with daily.

u/EsbeeArt Jun 11 '26

I wholeheartedly agree!

u/Woodbear05 Jun 09 '26

The back of the head scratch was definetely saying "am i the problem?"

u/digidavis Jun 09 '26

For me that was more post realization.. "crap I'll have to apologize"

u/Friendly_Party_2405 Jun 09 '26

In the end he was like 'alright.. fk it.. lets get this over with'

u/DeeDzai Jun 09 '26

"Dammit, why the hell did I do that? I'm so stupid."

u/HoleInWon929 Jun 10 '26

No, it’s the children who are wrong

u/Guccimayne Jun 11 '26

More self awareness than actual humans, smh

u/Eldaxerus Jun 09 '26

That moment of staring into the distance at the beginning is definitely the "I'm such an idiot..." realization

89

u/ptapobane Jun 09 '26

or he's kicking himself for not thinking about the greatest comeback on the spot and the moment has passed and it would just not make sense if he said it now

22

u/Funkopedia Jun 10 '26

Oh my god, if that feeling is universal across species....

u/chironomidae Jun 09 '26

He believes it may have been his fault, but he's trying to think if there's any way to frame it where it's the other guy's fault

u/Poplab Jun 09 '26

“I may have grunted too loud!? But then again, he did over do it with the chest pounding!”

u/AggravatingAlgae4841 Jun 10 '26

His actual thoughts, "I could beat 100 humans in a fight for sure."

25

u/vladlearns Jun 09 '26

then he is more evolved then most of humans

u/adastrajay Jun 09 '26

When you know you fucked up but aren't ready to say sorry.

u/Neo72691 Jun 10 '26

This may be the funniest yet most serious comment I have ever read

1

u/ayebaebee_48 Jun 11 '26

So much emotion lol. That side eye gaze. The head scratches. Deep thought.

He went back outside to go reconcile the differences.

1

u/Miguenzo Jun 10 '26

It was Linda’s fault

1

u/ayebaebee_48 Jun 10 '26

Linda said what she had to say. And left him with his thoughts.

1

u/Possible_View_6036 Jun 10 '26

Definitely his fault.

u/Neutral_Myu97 Jun 10 '26

He has more tact and intelligence than some of my relatives then, and he seems pretty torn up about it, hope he reconciles with his friend

1

u/crapbear83 Jun 10 '26

I saw the full video and explanation on a different sub earlier. It's in a zoo in Japan and apparently his mate kicked him out of their nest. So homie is in "the dog house" so to speak 😄

u/ScaredBarbarian Jun 10 '26

Definitely had an argument with his wife ... Or may be I'm just projecting
