Another point on the ‘return to monke’ scale.
I know we evolved to handle ethanol, but thought it was a recent thing, since the invention of beer. Weird.
Yes, I understand we didn’t evolve from chimps.
We did evolve from a common ancestor idk what you are on about. You were not intelligently designed in god’s image, but evolved from monkeys. Chimps being perhaps the closest relative surviving.
Right. In other words, we didn’t evolve from chimps.
You were not intelligently designed pal.
They’re not saying we are?
Intelligently designed? I am just not you guys.
We came from the same ancestor as chimps. Just as birds came from dinosaurs.
Who here do you think is suggesting otherwise?
We evolved from a common anscestor to monkeys and great apes (a class in which we belong). We are not, and did not, evolve from monkeys.
Not like them condescending fools that say we come from monkeys, that ain’t my heritage! Is that your heritage?
But people are primates that evolved from primates, whether monkey is misused in terminology referring to all primates or nor.
What do you suppose our common ancestor must have looked like? A dragon with wheels?
No. But it also wasnt a monkey.
I think the ability to metabolize ethanol with alcohol dehydrogenase is a separate, more recent thing. But a lot of the tree of life gets buzzed in various ways! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreational_drug_use_in_animals
Ratatoskr the squirrel on the tree of life drank the mead of wisdom.
Oh, that explains why they don’t drive cars
I mean, can you blame them?
If these primates have the same ability to drink as humans do, then they must have the same ability to drive a we do.
Goddamn they live better than us in every way
Chimps, not so much. Their society is exceedingly violent and hierarchical. Bonobos (equally close human relative in the other side of the Congo River) on the other hand, they have shit figured out.
Arguably my comment is funnier if you know anything about great apes
Me too, chimpsan. Me too
Going to a chimp-only AA meeting really hits different.
Based :3 good uncle
Hell yeah, let’s party.
Ive never had fresh Marula fruit, but this shit is good, and its made from it
The difference being that they don’t know it’s a poison.
Alcohol is not poison. Methanol is.
Bro ethanol alcohol is absolutely a poison. It’s just not a very good one
More puritanical propaganda.
I think a bunch of chimps downvoted you.
