Except that almost any animal of similar weight will always outrun,
out-lift, and out-fight us one on one and unassisted. The only way we do
"better" is because of that "unassisted" part. We pretty much need the
assistance to get anything done. heck, we even use the assistance of
animals. Why do you think we domesticated stuff?

So did Termites.
><Blah blah blah human superiority we rock they suck>
Assisted only. Take away our guns, cars, fancy buildings, and
supermarkets, and we're pretty much out of luck.

Good, you can kill stuff. Things can kill you too. So it is all just
about who can kill each other more? This isn't a war.

I'd like to see "A guy" perform the duties of a draft horse pulling a tram
loaded with people -all day-. The horse doesn't strain over it.

Actually, you've got one hole, one very squishy bug larva inside, and the
bird can get it out with a cactus needle in five seconds without damaging
it and losing the useful guts. Your sharp object wouldn't do nearly as well.

Never seen a 200-year-old person. And remember, just 1000 years ago, we
lived to be about 40. But hey, back then parrots were living 115 years.

You know, it's funny... The only person who made a claim like that was the
owner and purpose of this group... Who you just went on a very insulting
and relatively close-minded and inaccurate in many cases rant
against. Good show of intelligence there.
