Having an appendix is also pretty questionable

I think the new research is starting to suggest the appendix actually serves a purpose as reservoir for beneficial bacteria

Eating and breathing with the same orifice is very inconvenient and poorly designed.
-
If you're eating through your nose, I have some good news for you.
-
Wait you mean I'm not supposed to do it like that!?!?!?

Technically you breath through your nose and it goes down another pipe ☝️🤓

☝️🤓... Presenting to the emergency room after trying to eat and breathe at the same time.

Birds do it better.

If there's any kind of designer behind this whole mess, that dude should definitely be fired. Piss poor performance from start to finish.
-
Human body was designed to be just good enough to not break down before you pass your genes down the line. The evolution had expected you to die in your 40s to diarrhea or a tiger, not to an old age.
-
Either way, you’re going to be running.
-
God damned planned obsolescence 😤
-
Kin Selection Theory suggests it can be evolutionarily useful to live long enough to be a grandparent, or an uncle/aunt who doesn't have children. However, even that doesn't mean you have to pass those years in perfect health.

I got my gallbladder taken out in December. I didn't really comprehend the idea that I had a gallbladder before it was taken out, I didn't feel it missing after it was taken out, and I don't feel any different now that it's gone.
Thanks a lot for that one, God.
-
because its just a storage sack for bile that the liver makes losing the gall bladder just means the bile gets injected into your digestive tract directly. (which is why initially, you may have bouts of diarrhea)

Imagine combining the liquid waste organ, and the pleasure/reproductive organ, and then putting it next to the solid waste organ.
Terrible design. Also 2 arms arent enough, make me Goro from Mortal Kombat and we're good.
-
That arms thing has been such a realisation with time, like why only two arms? Let me have designated arms for things

The appendix actually makes vitamin C, but most mammals and many vertebrates in general abandoned that evolutionary trait. But yeah, not worth dying randomly at 32 from a belly ache.
-
As we go onnnnn, we remember, all the vitamins, we had togeeeetherrrrrr
-
So citrus has made us weak. I see.

They thing at back of books is bad
-
It's vestigial.

The appendix is a worm-shaped tube attached to the large intestine in the human body. It is an organ that is credited with very little significance and often removed indiscriminately to avoid complications due to infection.
However, modern researchers believe that the appendix has many key functions in the human body and it protects the body’s internal environment from infection.

Boost for "whatever's going on with uteruses", I hate that scumbag (was going to make a scumbag uterus meme, then discovered there are many, couldn't pick one. Enjoy)..
-
Wild stuff going on in that Uterus. First, multiple little bubbles form in the uterine flesh wall to produce eggs in, then the first one to complete releases the eggs, and all the others get triggered by the hormone release signals to become necrotic and the uterus sheds all of the affected flesh, causing large amounts of bleeding in the process.
-
Of course, it's not as weird as people used to think it was.

Creationists always want to point out the wonderful things in nature. They aren't able to cope with its myrad of flaws and how that would come about with a creator who has all the traits they claim: merciful, all knowing, and all powerful. You can take away any one of those and possibly make it fit, but you can't have all three.

Lips? Be more specific.
-
The kind where you don't have to be extremely limber to lick your own.

I really like the contrast of this comment and reply. They disliked the setup but enjoyed the punchline.
