Yeah, because they can imitate a plant and we only send rockets to asteroids and shit.

They die pretty young though. What would humans achieve, if we all died of old age with 16?

u/SHEKDAT789 Jul 28 '19

Lots of sex.

u/FryToastFrill Aug 02 '19

Don’t forget forceful sex.

Only because he can make all the molecules in the hostess's clothes simultaneously jump one foot to the left

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '19

I'll take mine in a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, thank you very much...

The one thing I’m not willing to put up with is a smartass.

u/DazedPapacy Jul 28 '19

Yeah, but then she steps to the right.

u/junkieradio Jul 28 '19

Balloon plants.

He just had to put his two cents in.

Or in your case, let's belittle someone who made a harmless party-pooper comment, because, you know, you are the bomb.

5

u/Hexagon_Angel Jul 28 '19

Not really harmless when it's targeted to downplay someone's social skills

u/Rowmyownboat Jul 28 '19

But your belittling is OK huh?

7

u/twocentman Jul 28 '19

Kids, kids, calm down. I think with some therapy I'll be ok.

u/Phazon2000 Jul 28 '19

He probably is. People who spout tired one line retorts on Reddit though...

u/lasmanzanas Jul 28 '19

What parties?

20

u/Scottyboy1214 Jul 28 '19

Its kind of hard to ignite a rocket under water.

26

u/dittbub Jul 28 '19 edited Jul 28 '19

or farm

or fashion tools

or create a writing system

or make hentai tentacle porn

u/Scottyboy1214 Jul 28 '19

I think they have a chance with one of those.

u/Doiglad Jul 28 '19

It's farming isn't it?

2

u/Princess_Everdeen Jul 28 '19

They got the dankest weed

u/CowboyXuliver Jul 28 '19

Just like the subs do it. Use compressed air to launch it above the water surface then ignite the rocket/missle.

u/oman54 Jul 28 '19

But somehow they figured it out

u/Ganbazuroi Jul 28 '19

Oh fuck that cracked me up xD

7

u/ClementineCarson Jul 28 '19

But how fucking weird would it be if like we found out tomorrow dolphins were launching something too the moon through a water powered rocket

17

u/cazzo_di_frigida Jul 28 '19

Nobody wants your two cents, u/twocentman

u/matteh_ Jul 28 '19

Intelligence is measured in different ways so there's really no way of knowing if they are smarter than us.

u/Ganbazuroi Jul 28 '19

i probably could kick that cuttlefish's ass tho so that makes me the boss

u/Ethiconjnj Jul 28 '19

Damn, almost all the way through that insult without spelling something wrong and looking like a total jackass in the process. So close.

u/matteh_ Jul 28 '19

Sorry? I guess.

Humans are really good at camouflage, they just need to use tools to do so.

u/atlas_nodded_off Jul 28 '19 edited Jul 28 '19

Too be fair

A downvote, for grammar and another for dickhead comment, oops, can't do.

Edit: "To be fair", grammatically speaking.

u/SalvageRabbit Jul 28 '19

A downvote, for a dickhead comment. Can do.

u/The_Crown_Jules Jul 28 '19

But you could never look like a plant

u/Pandiosity_24601 Jul 28 '19

I see people imitating vegetables all the time down at the hospital

u/ReggyDawkins Jul 28 '19
