      This kind of thing tends to happen when frugivorous apes attempt to eat meat for no reason.

      Edit: the replies confirm that humans really are one chromosome away from Chimpanzees. Amazing.

          True but I’d just like to sit and admire the word frugivorous for a moment

            I’m a fan of fungivorous, it just seems like something a fun guy would say.

      Always feels weird when a city dweller like me, seems to have more common sense knowledge like this than people who literally hunt animals to eat.
