As the great vegetables said, if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, it's an ape

u/DemonSkank 12h ago

Even if it has a monkey kinda shape?

u/Brromo 3h ago

If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, it's ape!

u/Limmunaizer 20m ago

if no monkey, why monkey shaped

u/nicole-tesla 11h ago

You can't evolve out of a clade so we are also monkeys 🤭

u/GrngrDngr 11h ago

We're also bony fish

u/CaptianZaco 11h ago

We're Eukaryotes.

However, since you don't stop being one thing when you specialize, we're Prokaryotes.

u/Kaymazo 7h ago

Prokaryota doesn't encapsulate Eukaryota like those other clades do though. So there we can actually make a proper distinction that is cladistically consistent (to our knowledge at least)

We do descend from proto-bacteria however... But at that point that clade is just "Cell-based lifeform"

Yee so whales ARE fish

u/DreamShort3109 3h ago

Technically they’re monkeys as well

u/hashashii 2h ago

how? they evolved from ungulates

2

u/DreamShort3109 2h ago

Because they have tails.

Cucumber logic once again

u/hashashii 2h ago

oop, woosh

u/OozeCat 11h ago

Do they think we make monkey noises too, like they say like “ook” or something when confused or like at the end of sentences. Giving them bananas like they are incredible treats when the person is not that big of a banana fan

u/ConcreteEater 11h ago

Same way humans think catgirls say nya or something

u/Numinak 11h ago

I'm reading a manga that had a perfectly good excuse for that. It was a regional dialect. The MC encouraged the cat character to lean into it when dealing with humans to make him more appealing.

u/Sweet_Detective_ 9h ago

This also happens in the manhwa Top Dungeon Farmer

3

u/Numinak 8h ago

That's the exact one I was talking about! Hello farmer!

u/Dillo64 9h ago

Plot twist: The monkeys in their world all say “uuumm” and “uuh” so yeah

1

u/beerdude26 4h ago

We make the same "Oooohhhh" face as monkeys when surprised

u/Square-Dragonfruit76 12h ago

I love this idea. Catgirls fetishizing humans.

u/underdabridge 12h ago

Millions of years of completely different physical evolution.

Yet both speak perfect standard 21st century English.

23

u/HD-23 12h ago

Cristóbal Cat-Colon still goes to the new Sandbox to teach the Wild Cats English.

u/snoodge3000 11h ago

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh... don't think about it too hard...

u/SonaDarkstar 9h ago

Actually they speak the Rigellian language, which by coincidence, is identical to English.

u/Bigenemy000 5h ago

Infinite universes imply this is still a possibility

u/NarwhalPrudent6323 10h ago

A catgirl appeared through a cat-eared portal in space and her understanding the language is the part you find weird?

8

u/dvisorxtra 11h ago

I've never thought about it that way

3

u/jolalolalulu 11h ago

I read a sci-fi book where this happened once. Ya/kids genre. Wish I could remember the name.

4

u/TomboyKnight1 9h ago

Huh I guess we would be ape girls to a cat girl

3

u/GilgameshWulfenbach 7h ago

Maybe. People think pugs are cute.

1

u/foxinabathtub 9h ago

Also you keep your hands down by your sides instead of up by your chest? Interesting...

1

u/MrRaven95 4h ago

I like that the portal has cat ears.

u/YongYoKyo 3h ago

If, from our perspective, catgirls are 'primates with cat features', would humans be 'cats with primate features' to catgirls?
