Ate him and made a necklace of his teeth? THAT’s winning an argument!
And to think you get a penalty for dancing in the NFL end zone.

“big-headed hominid ancestors”
that’s what they said about aborigines. shot them like cows, boiled up their heads to sell the skulls to museums as “evolution artifacts”.
