Awhile Ago
Anthro Teacher:
"Now, picture this...you're in the middle of a lake and can swim fine. Half way to shore on your left is your brother, half way to shore on the right is your cousin. You can only save one...so which do you go for?"
Random Student:
"I'd save my brother..."
Teacher:
"Of course you would. The reason is because you have a higher coefficient of relation with him...that is, you share more genes with him than your cousin...thus, by saving him, you better help your genes to pass on to future generations.
Chick:
"That doesn't make sense. If you save your brother...that means that you have a better chance of mating with someone of relation, meaning your genes would get messed up..."
Teacher:
"Uhh...it's not like you're to start fucking once you get to shore..."
Two Days Ago
Same Teacher:
"So, basically archaic homo sapiens only real predator was himself."
Different Chick:
"But...the movie we watched last wednesday said that ancient man was commonly hunted by lions and tigers...and he couldn't do much to defend himself..."
Teacher:
"Well the movie was wrong."
Class:
*kinda laughs...thinking he's kidding*
Teacher:
"No, I'm serious. Sure, it had some good details, but their theories were complete bullshit. They didn't know what they were talking about...but we do know what we're talking about...so we'll believe us."
