I think he should hear the chimp out.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 21 points 3 months ago (2 children)

In the law of the jungle ... if one chimp wants to try to horde 100 bananas and not share them, all the other chimps will attack the one greedy chimp and take all the bananas.

As intelligent humans, we've allowed a few chimps in our global community to horde a banana pile the size of mount everest and that's perfectly normal to us.

To be fair, most people don't see that pile in their day to day.

Kinda sounds like the opening to a hominid Law & Order show

I always wondered what the cutoff would be for apes/humans going to heaven. Apes aren't allowed, humans are allowed. At one point in evolution, a non-heaven-compatible creature gave birth to a heaven creature. That poor proto-human, living in heaven without parents and probably unable to speak. They wouldn't be able to sing along to the Ronnie James Dio concerts up there 😔

Whenever I feel powerless, I remember the wise words of my ancient ancestors:

"Ooo eee ooo ahh ahh, ting tang walla walla bingbang."

Were your ancestors some chipmunks?

Wait you don't have to worry about Lions and Wolves eating your wife? You are winning!

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I would be terrified to live in a place where wolves and lions share a hunting ground.

[–] burgersc12@mander.xyz 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I was thinking sabretooth lions since they'd be likely to share similar territory as wolves. Good thing they went extinct

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Just went down a rabbit hole about sabertooth lions, tigers and inevitably got to the Smilodon. What a kitty.

They supposedly had stocky, well muscled proportions.
