“I just had the best idea.”
“Oh, great.”
“You know how most animals poop out blobs or tubes or little pellets?”
“Um…”
“I’m going to make this wombat poop different.”
“Poop… different…?”
“I’m going to make it poop cubes!”
"Seriously?”
“That way the poops won’t roll away when the wombat uses them to mark its territory.”
"I think you’ve finally lost it.”
“It’s called ‘innovation,’ my friend.”

“Hey, evolution, you seem like you’re feeling better. That’s a pretty red bug you’re making there.”
"Oh, thanks. It’s a flatid leaf bug.”
“I like the shape. And that’s a lovely shade of red.”
“I picked it myself.”
“That’s a weird fuzzy branch it’s crawling on, though, huh?”
“What? No. Those are the babies.”
“I’m sorry?”
“Babies. Dozens of creepy, squirmy, waxy, fringy babies.”
"… you are so weird.”

“Ew, evolution, what are you doing?”
“Making a fruiting body for the stinkhorn fungus. Isn’t it cool?”
“Hmm. I’m not sure that’s the way to go here.”
“Why not? It helps the fungus spread its spores.”
“It’s just that it looks a little… anatomical.”
“What? Nobody’s going to think that.”
“Everybody’s going to think that.”
“But I made it smell like hot death!”
"Yeah, that isn’t helping.”
“You’re no fun at all.”

Sometimes evolution makes beautiful animals that move with all the elegance of a finely-honed ballet. Other times… it makes ducks.

“Happy new year, evolution! Do you have any resolutions?”
“Yeah. I decided that everything I make is going to look completely normal from now on.”
“Wow, really? You mean like this northern fulmar bird here? He seems lovely.”
"Yeah. Hey, just don’t get within like ten feet of that guy, okay, or he might projectile vomit neon orange half-digested fish oil in your face.”
"Never change.”
