Is being human overrated, /an/?
Yes being a human sucks our social structure is awful and all the knowledge in the world just leads to despair.I wish I was a different species.
>>5152341i think i'd rather be a turkey vulture. imagine soaring high overhead with my birdbros, eating some dead dumbass for lunch, sunbathing, and repeating that all over again, all while having no predators. the good life
>>5152344I think the book of Ecclesiastes has a point with this
>>5152341No. I wouldn't want to be an animal struggling for survival. Hunting or being hunted
>>5152344Being a human on /an/ fucking rules though. We just sit on our asses and shit on each other for our particular tastes in animals like they’re pokemon. And you have the nerve to complain.
>>5152341you need abstract cognition to rate things so only a few species can actually leave reviews
>>5152341The worse thing about being human is boredom
>>5152341I always wonder if birds like flying to us it would be so cool to sore high above and shit on some retards car, but maybe to them it's as normal as walking is to us. Ig it's all about perspective.
>>5152371>The worse thing about being human is boredomThen the beasts must learn what it means to be...hueman.
>>5152341Easy to underappreciate the cleanliness and our survival rate/overall rate of suffering compared to anything “wild”. To quote modest mouse>and it’s hard to be a human being>but it’s harder as anything else
>>5152341Sometimes I just want to be an early anatolian farmer in peace, a neanderthal or erectus. So no. It's pretty cool, just there's things stressing me constantly.
>>5152341Did every person working a manual job reek like a hobo back then? These clothes look hot and I doubt they could change them often.
>>5153867Medieval europeans bathed at least once weekly, more often if they had access to a river or lake. It cost money to use a proper bath.
>>5152354Then you best not shipwreck on my island. Simple fucking as. >>5152341I’d want to be an owl or a skunk.
>>5152341
it sucks fucking ass but like, everything is so much worse
If given the option I would be a manatee.
>>5152341I hate the word overrated, it's such a empty useless word. That being said it's high risk, high reward thing. If you want to just coast through life I wouldn't pick humans.
>>5153871Once weekly isn't that much when you work hard.
>>5153867>>5153871Why are you acting like they didn't just need one rag and a bowl of water to wipe the sweat away before bed? No it's not "a bath" but it is hygiene
Being a human = being a crab in a bucket. Every man wants to own land, build, have a harem of wives, and produce many offspring, but other men won't let you have it because they can't have it.
>>5154661Gross, you must smell horrifying.
>>5154662>other men won't let you have it because they... have itFixedTrue otherwise. I always knew land ownership was a primal calling to us.
>>5152341Yes. I'd rather be a fungal colony and chill in the mycelium without a care in the world beyond soil and moisture
>>5154666That’s what people did, anon. You would boil a bowl of water and then scrub yourself with a rag until your skin was rosy pink. You see the same in Japanese anime where the lady is washing a guy’s back and she sees his huge penis.
