10 Worst Evolutionary Designs
JamJam writes "Besides my beer gut, which I'm sure has some purpose, Wired is running a story on the
10 Worst Evolutionary Designs. Ranging from baby giraffes being dropped 5-foot during birth to Goliath bird-eating spiders that practically explode when they fall from trees."
The Pontiac Aztec. God they were ugly.

Genitalia camouflage.
"Common sense will be the death of us all"
Sometimes spelling is that way, too.
Is that a beer keg in your tummy or are you just happy to see me?
the human foot is the stupidest most ugliest thing. the shape is completely pointless, the whole 5 wiggling toes thing is absurd and useless. to say toes help us grip and balance is to argue from the starting assumption that the human foot its the best design, which it obviously isn't. a truly intelligent design would be something like pan from greek legend: hooves. now a hoof is smart
and the foot is also the most accessible argument against intelligent design in your rhetorical toolbox. i mean come on, look at your damn foot: how can you look at a human foot and NOT see that it was once a monkey hand for gripping trees coopted into the need to walk instead, and that this "foot" is a relatively "new" development in our monkey lineage?
next time you're confronted with an intelligent design moron, take off your shoe, resist throwing it at them, and show them your foot
intellectual property law is philosophically incoherent. it is your moral duty to ignore it or sabotage it
There's still Sasquatch in North America, a population of Yeti in the Himalayas, the Australian Bunyip and of course the Belgians.
