The missing link?

They say that one of the possible causes for this is brain damage. So does that mean that our ancient ancestors on the evolutionary chain all had brain damage? It sure would explain why a lot of people act the way they do.

So you're saying the reason our ancestors started walking is because they're brain got damaged? o_O That sounds weird, but possible. But I think they started walking like a baby learns to: crawling, then little steps, etc.

As for the monkey walking, this may be a sign of evolution for them :p

Well I for one am thankful we are all brain-damaged. It would be socially awkward if we all still went around throwing our feces at each other and masturbating in public. :smash:

I believe it's just a strange "one-off" reaction to the ailment, rather than a possible explanation for "Evolution".

See? THAT'S why I don't take you out anywhere anymore.

Anyway, all I gotta say about the news story is: Aren't monkeys wonderful? :love:

Aww, look at him standing on two legs. Just like a little Rory Calhoon.
