    It’s a wonder humans took over the world and not dolphins or some other reasonably smart animal.

    Humans are 20% culture, progress, and innovation, and 80% tasty hands and dead weight.

      Those hands aren’t just tasty, they also have opposable thumbs and allow complex tool use, and perhaps most importantly, complex tool creation.

        I think the complex use and creation are probably the exception not the rule. I’m beginning to wonder if most people, especially in the US, could fish ants out of a colony with a stick. I am unfortunately doubtful.
