xerp has just told me something very important. 8biteer's do not have arms. those "arms" are really just holes in your shirts. that is why swords shoot out of our chest and not our hands. i think robby z should make our "arms" seems more like arms by letting them change color like your skin.

Maybe they are dimensional rips in spacetime.

/me whispers to sim9 "They're learning!"

[Scratso]

No, we just have the ability to move swords with our minds, therefore making our arms irrelevant black stubs.

Scratso whispers to Sim9: they're getting even more knowledge! Knowledge is power...

[Scratso]

Um.... we invented knowledge for humans......... so we are basiclly the most powerful subspecies under 'Human' or 'Homo-Sapien'.

? You ARE a Human and a Homo-Sapien, so you aren't a subspecies!

Austr-aliens are subhuman

No we evolved from monkeys (general term, imprecise)

No we didn't.

We evolved from a common ancestor of the monkey.

[Zooty]

Actually, we evolved from chimpanzees, which technically aren't monkeys.

This is actually a very common misunderstanding about the theory of evolution. The theory is not that humans came from monkeys, but that humans evolved from an earlier species which Monkeys also evolved from. Monkeys are not our ancesors, but our cousins--both humans and monkeys (and apes) evolved from a species that was neither human or monkey (or ape). Some important points: 

1. Modern monkeys share some distant ancestors with humans, and those ancestors did look something like monkeys, but they were not the same as modern monkeys. Man and monkeys both came from a monkey-like species millions of years ago. Humans did not evolve from modern monkeys. 

2. Humans are actually more closely related to apes than to monkeys. But humans did not evolve "from apes" either. Apes have a common ancestor with humans much more recent than either apes or humans have with monkeys. 

3. Additionally, if a species evolves out of another species, the theory of evolution does not require that the original "parent" species must then disappear. Evolution is a process the develops *species* based on events that happen to *individuals*. If some monkey-like ancestor of humans left the forest to live on the savannah, and they had brothers and cousins who stayed in the forest, it was quite possible that those who stayed back remained something like they were for many generations while those who migrated to the savannah changed due to their new environment. In actual fact this did not occur, because the forest environment itself was changing (the forests were dying off due to climate changes, giving way to the savannah, which was why some of the prehuman primates were forced to survive in their new savannah environment). However, there are many instances where part of a species evolves into another species while another part of that species remains unchanged, and is therefore still the same species.

The theory is based on where you lived. So.... if you lived in Africa, they would have evolved first due to climate. Point proven.

Link evolved from being 2d to 3d because of the enviroment (Consoles)

Get your torches and pitchforks, death to consoles!11!1!

[Zooty]

Your sayain that you hate modern consoles?

Yes

[Zooty]

Atari and SNES all the way.

It's either Sega Megadrive or PC Masterrace, dirty peasant.

[Zooty]

Calling me a dirty peasant, little orange horse?

Yes

[Scratso]

No we didn't.
We evolved from a common ancestor of the monkey.

Quite possibly.

[Scratso]

I'm pretty sure he can read those, it's BRACKETS

[Zooty]

Okay..... [are you sure Zooty? reply yes if you can]

No

[DeadRunning]

On that evolution chat one thing to keep in mind is that in all reality we were most likely made/engineered as our DNA has traces of many species. I made us all in my image ( well sort of.. I'm pretty darn good looking so I had to switch that up a little for fun.) and then forgot. lol well who knows but I can say I can't believe in a story passed down and rewritten 1000+ times with absolutely no proof to back it. But I'm not getting into that one.

 

I also believe in little orange ponies!

What.Just.happened?

Pretty pony? I know a better pony (I'm not a fan, serious, I just know.)

Rainbow Dash.
