I was not offended dude , just pointing out new rules that I didn't want you to fall foul of.

I would hate to see you censored :D

Thanks; Glad to See that you Weren't
Offended; It Surely Would Take a 'Truck
Running over me' to get Personally offended...
But It's Worth Noting that actually
Everything About the Video is
Part of 'That Culture'
As actually
it was part
of my Social Criticism
Of Looking For Love Now
in All 'The Wrong Trump
Places'; True, easy to miss A Bigger
Picture looking at smaller things too;
But Yeah; 'In Rome', You Fit it, so thanks;
Verily, We Need Detail Folks in the World too..;)

Evolution, of course.

Did you want an answer to your question or an excuse to argue?


Careful, my dear Fnord. :mrgreen:

It's not a photoshopped fish, its a paleoart illustration of an early tetrapod leaving water for life on land. Does that explain it? :) :nerdy:

... well, I just noticed that the photoshopped fish... umm, paleoart illustration of an early tetrapod... has a naughty smirk on its face... it's probably the one that peed in the pool!

"On the verge"?

"On the Verge" may refer to:

• A 2008 independent documentary film.
• A 1987 play by Eric Overmyer also known as On the Verge (or The Geography of Yearning).
• An Irish radio show.
• A 2013 blues album by The Fabulous Thunderbirds.
• A song by Collin Raye.
• A song by Le Tigre from This Island.
• A state of closely approaching some action or outcome; very nearly at the point at which something will happen.

Assuming you mean the last one, what is he on the verge of doing?

Hehe, Since 'He' is me; 'on the Verge' of
'Breaking the Rules' it Seems by Presenting
A YT Video with a Tiny Part of a Confederate
Flag in the Avatar of A YouTube User in A Small
Circle that Had no Significance to me Whatsoever;
Yes, Zero
Consequence
That i did not
Notice; Someone
Else Saw Something
Else as Let's Face it,
We All View the World
Differently, Like Mr vermontsavant
Wasn't Looking for An Argument, Just
Trying to Understand what is Being Said;
i had no Clue, Who 'AmericanZeus' Was until i
Went Back to the Original YT Video and noticed closer in
the Little Bitty Circle that a piece of A Confederate Flag is in
it; Also, It's Worth Noting that i recently Wrote a Poem About A
White Confederate Rose Turning Pink and Red but i was Smart
Enough
not
to
Provide
A Photo of it, i guess;
All That Ends Well Starts Well;
Cognitive Empathy takes a lot of Focus
And Work to achieve Appropriate Results;
As We All See Our Worlds So Differently For REAL..:)

Thats a famous fossil. Found in Greenland a few years ago named "Tiktaalic", or like that. Even if you dont read Discover Magazine regularly , and didnt know about it you could kinda figure out that that critter looks like a "missing link" between fish and land vertebrates (ie amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, and you and me). So you could kinda figure out what Kip is asking.

Yep!

And the world has never been the same since. :D

You are expecting someone to join the dots based on your own knowledge , it doesn't work that way.

People of our distinguished age ( :D ) were blessed with a better education than others. This was before creationism muddied the topic, when girls still wore dresses to school and we actually had the preserved tiktaalic specimen to dissect. :D

What are you on about ? Some people don't get cryptic posts , it has nothing to do with having a better education.

This place is getting more toxic by the day.

The answers on a quiz are easy , if you know the answer :roll:
