It’s not. And the fact that you think they sing songs makes me think you’ve never watched it.

The post you replied to is a reference to Bandit saying "it's just monkeys singing songs, mate", when he goes to the movies with Bluey.

The misunderstanding here shows that we need to be careful with in-jokes and references in an asynchronous medium. Even among people who have consumed the media in question. It's even worse with the general public (or even just general HN public).

Sorry, I didn’t get the reference. I’m a moron. My bad.

Don't worry, just for fun.
