RETURN 🦀 TO 🦀 CRAB

The destiny of all species is to eventually become crab.

Why do you think humans have evolved to have less hair than our ancestors? Its the start of a long journey that will eventually being us back to CRABB.

Also Mustelids, because Mustelids are hella cute and who can blame nature for wanting to create more cute things?!

Don’t forget trees. There are so many different lineages for trees.

I disagree.

Posting the same joke with different meme formats would be the equivalent of convergent evolution.

Is this the real life?

I think two different meme templates that are used for the same type of joke could be considered the equivalent too. To me it makes more sense to compare a meme template to a species and a particular meme to an individual of a species.

Convergent would be two people coincidentally making the same meme
