About the Where Monkey Meme
Three orangutans sit at a table that resembles a news anchor desk, staring directly at the camera with expectant, impatient expressions. Their body language screams "we're waiting for an explanation." The image is paired with demands for something that is conspicuously absent — the orangutans are the entire board of directors, and they want answers. It distills the primal frustration of being promised something and staring into the void where it should be.
A stock image of three orangutans sitting at what appears to be a news desk or conference table, staring expectantly at the camera. The image went viral in 2021 as a reaction image paired with "WHERE [thing]?" — channeling the primal frustration of not having something you were promised. The format works because the orangutans' expressions perfectly capture the energy of demanding answers. For waiting for something that never comes, see Waiting Skeleton. For politely but repeatedly asking for something, see Bernie I Am Once Again Asking.
