I disagree. This is the General Forum. This is for lighthearted chats, mickey taking, general levity and frivolity. If you're going to get so easily offended by a few mild jibes take yourself off to the "Discussion" Forum (and get really offended by the serious jibes that they have there). At least you will have a right to be offended.

Meanwhile I am going to propose that evolution will soon provide children with an extra thumb so that they can all send texts more quickly in order to impress teenagers of the opposite sex.

I see women selecting for men with very low tollerance to alcohol . More women will be bred with by men who have the "beer google effect" and therefore can't see what they really look like .
Also , I think women will end up with an extra set of breasts on their back (for dancing close) .
Men will also have underdeveloped forearms .

[b]but at the minute.. as we speak.. evolution is soooo sloooooow that might as well callin it "stopped"..

I have to disagree with your statement. To understand evolution you have to understand the time frames involved. You can't expect to see evolution change within your lifetime.

Incidentally, your statement reminds me of an arguement I had with a friend. He said, "I'm buying 100 loto tickets tonight because the jackpot is at $40 million!". I told him he should buy "one ticket". The arguement is thusly:

The odds of winning the lotto are "0" if you don't buy a ticket! If you buy one ticket your odds are greatly improved!!! 🙂 But any purchase over that and you are placing your hard earned money against 400 million to 1.

Hence, if you want to gamble, buy ONE ticket! 🙂

Infinitely increased in fact. 😛

Also, everyone buys more tickets and more people play in this scenario, which means more winners and thus the jackpot being shared between more people.

I throw around insults and/or make sarcastic comments to inflame debate or cause conflict in what I percieve to be otherwise lacking threads. I assure you that all of my commentary is insanely brillant and amusing.

Still my apologies for offending you and will strive to minimize my offensive remarks.
