If we evolved from monkeys, as is evidenced by our very comparable DNA and analogous (he he anal-o-gus) structures, does that mean that some humans are less evolved and more like our most recent ancestors?
For instance, that whole hair on the hands thing. No, not your palms, Xbox, the backs of them. Some people have it and some don’t.
Some people have really flexible joints and the ability to hang forever from the bars at the school yard – upside down (ahem).
Some have fingertips that brush just above their knees when they walk.
And then there’s me: my tailbone is so evident, it pokes a toilet seat when I sit down. I don’t even have to look for it to know that it used to be a tail, centuries ago.
And most people I know? Have an ass that hides that tail, or just don’t have a tail (circa sometime a looooong time ago, AC). And their hairy hands don’t hang onto gym apparatuses (apparatii?) for hours on end, when not grazing their knees.
And you know, sometimes my tail totally fucks up my day. Cuz there’s nothing worse than being interrupted mid-plurk by a coccyx that is aching so bad from sitting in one spot for hours, you almost want to have someone remove it.
So, does that mean I’m less evolved than you?
