If you put a million monkeys at a million keyboards, one of them will eventually write a Java program.

The rest of them will write Perl programs.

Alright, listen up, you knucklehead. You think monkeys are gonna start coding? You think a million monkeys can code? You probably still struggle to make toast. The joke plays on the idea that if you give enough monkeys keyboards, they will randomly write something, which implies Perl is bad and more chaotic than Java, and is written like random key presses by monkeys.
