About
The Monkey Chain, The Monkey's Fist, The Monkey! refers to a TikTok trend in which people show off parts of their cat before revealing its face. The catchphrase comes from a dialogue in SpongeBob SquarePants where the Flying Dutchman shows SpongeBob how to tie various knots. The sound came to be used on TikTok in January 2024, initially by people showing their cats and subsequently by people showing off other pets.
Origin
