The task was opening a box.
The adult did something extraneous like waving a feather and then actually opened the latch and opened the box.
Recent scientific study showed that (after watching the adult) young chimps figure that waving the feather is irrelevant and just open the box. Young humans wave the feather and open the box.
To me, this means young humans are retarded, although the scientist tried to make the case that humans are more advanced in some way.

Opposites
Exercise (and other things):
Sometimes you have to feel bad to feel good.
It's nonintuitive.
In computer science, this is why the greedy algorithm is often not optimal.

Porn Compatibility
Porn for men (sex videos with little plot) and porn for women (romance novels) are incompatible* because each is tuned particularly to what men and women want (extremes). Actual relationships are a compromise that satisfy a man and a woman, at least partially.
* A novel won't work for a man and a video won't work for a woman.
* A novel won't work for a man and a video won't work for a woman.
