[ScienceIsKnowledge]

@eternalcrumpet

"Gee's and Hustla's - Snoop Doggy Dogg. It's from the "Doggy Style" album.

Nice video. I'm wondering what song is playing at the end? It's very interesting.

[ScienceIsKnowledge]

@rhatcher010

"Tom Waits - Make it Rain."

That song was from a live performance on the Letterman show. Incredible Artist.

i find it a bit ironic that the people who reject the fact we evolved from apes actually would use an ape's favourite fruit as proof that we never had anything to do with apes.

[hoopmajik]

sorry for being a nazi, but we didn't evolve from apes, we share the same ancestor blah blah blah

[argh523]

@argh523 In german, we talk about "Affen", but that doesn't mean apes, but monkeys. Ape kind of translates to "Menschenaffe", but this includes humans. This was the source for my confusion, and this applies to other languages as well (I'm aware of french, scandinavian languages, dutch, probably a lot more)

So, in english, it's correct to say "humans aren't apes", but for the wrong reasons, it's just a word game and adds needless confusion if not properly defined up front.

[argh523]

@argh523 The way "ape" is defined it's kind of usless to use it to talk biolog, just like "fish" it is used as a composit of species / families that don't fit the biological ancestry. If one insists to use it that way, fine, but don't use the word when discussing about what descended from what then. If your definition explicitly conflicts with genealogy, it it usless when discussing genealogy. That sould be obvious.

[argh523]

I often got confused by how native english speakers exclude humans from apes, until I discovered that there are serious people who define ape as "all apes except humans", quite literally, for no good reason. It doesn't make sense biologically, it's just a word game.

@ScienceIsKnowledge No, that common ancestor was an ape, we are a subset of Great Apes. You are an ape.

[ScienceIsKnowledge]

@pat5168

No. we evolved from a type of primate that shares common ancestry to ALL apes. Lemurs also share ancestry from the same primate.

[pat5168]

@hoopmajik No, we evolved from and still are apes.
