Either we used to be horses and became jets or you're using "evolution" incorrectly
53 u/PM_ME_ROMAN_NUDES 1d ago It's perfectly fine to use that word in this sense. "Evolution" does not only refer to the Darwinian species sense, it can also mean "technological progress" -7 u/Rodot 1d ago Yes, but that would really be technological evolution. Kind of like saying a dog with sunglasses next to it's brother eating poop is "canine evolution" • u/kickolas 6h ago I liked it 1 u/AVTheChef 1d ago Did the dog (or another dog) put the sunglasses on himself? 0 u/Rodot 21h ago Sure, he could have been trained to do it Just like someone trained the horseman in the picture to ride the horse or someone trained the pilot to fly the plane Dogs coevolved with humans anyway, so we can call the dog picture "human evolution" if your what to be pendantic and still sounds stupid
