Mammal Massacre


In the future, mammals will have to adjust to our artificial environment or perish

I was listening to some ‘expert’ on the radio just now, who was talking about how, in thirty years, half the mammals currently alive today will be extinct. My first reaction was, how depressing. But then, after thinking about it for a bit, I came to the conclusion that it was a sad but inevitable part of evolution.

How so? Well, ask yourself this, in our current artificial world, what in God’s name is the point of a whale? You’re far too large, mate. Or a koala? Yes, they look very cute, but what in the name of Jesus is their function? And don’t get me started on the panda. Any animal that needs to be artificially inseminated deserves to go the way of the dodo.



I know all you animal lovers will be up in arms, but I don’t really believe that an animal should be your best friend. If one is, well, maybe you have a problem. You can’t talk to a cow, and you can’t make love to a sheep, unless you live in Wales and have a special permit. Seriously, how soon do you think it would be before your dog or cat turned on you and stripped you limb from limb if you stopped feeding it? Try it, I dare you.

And as for zoos, which are keeping endangered species alive, all well and good, but look at the animals that live there. How many are mad and pacing around like nutters? The majority, from what I have observed. And why shouldn’t they go mad? You would too under the circumstances. Ask yourself this: Would you want to live in an ‘enclosure’ the size of a prison cell, with people gawping at you and laughing while you scratch your privates or try and have a quick shag with your cell mate? Course you wouldn’t.

I recently flicked through a book called Why Men Are The Way They Are by Warren Farrell, which basically puts forward the premise that women should stop being so emotionally dependent on men, and if they weren’t, we would have a much happier society. He says that now, in our technological age, there is no need for any woman to be financially or emotionally dependent on men. To which I say, yes, I’m all for that, total equality, but feminism has been going for a mere hundred years, as opposed to the millions of years in which pathways were cemented in the brain which cause the sexes to behave the way they do. My husband studies the brain, so I know a bit about this, and it’s actually well documented that the way Stone Age people lived is more or less the way our brains are programmed to function today. It’s no accident that many women live in romantic fantasy worlds and are emotionally dependent on men. That’s the way it was in the Stone Age. In the Stone Age, if a woman wasn’t ga ga about her hairy brute, there was no way she was going to sit around a fire for days waiting for him to come back with a dead mammoth and give her a three minute fuck, now was there? Same as, why are men often violent? It is a proven fact that men don’t exhibit the self control women do when under attack, and will often resort to physical violence. Obviously, it has to do with how, in the old days, you had to smash the enemy’s face in first, think later, in order to defend your tribe etc. But let’s face it, the time for punching someone’s lights out because they’ve pinched your stash of Post-It notes is now well and truly over.

What I mean is, I’m all for men and women learning new ways of behaviour that are more relevant to our current age, but it’s going to take thousands and thousands of years for new pathways to be burnt into the brain. Got that Warren? It’s not going to happen next week just because you’ve written a book about it.

Now, humans will probably be able to adapt to the new, nature free, synthetic world we live in. But for those animals that can’t, what is the point of keeping them alive? You tell me.

Also, it is tragic that Planet Earth will soon be totally destroyed, but that’s the way it’s going, so deal with it. There are always doom-mongers saying, “This ruined planet is the punishment we humans have got for turning away from Jesus, having promiscuous sex, masturbating and looking at Internet porn.” But actually, God-botherers, that’s incorrect. It is progress, not promiscuity, that has driven the planet to its knees. And all those that cannot adapt will perish.

Do you agree?

Evolution has stopped working for humans because the stupid ones are now having the most kids. However, humans can burn new pathways into their brains if they go to a shaolin temple, meditate, stop cursing and fornicating and don't take drugs. Then they'll be like Caine in Kung Fu, who had the temperament of the better sort of gorilla. He only got laid once during the whole series, but boy what a fuck that was.

Vi vi vi vooom!!!!!!!! said...

Koalas - Their uses: Peeing on tourists when they are getting their photo taken with them. Just as bad as Skunk smell, you can never get it out of your clothes. MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Conortje said...

Masturbating is bad for the environment? Holy crap, better up my Greenpeace donation.
On a different note evolution usually occurs in periods of environmental stability so we're in for a very long wait until things will change re men and women I reckon.

rilly super said...

I think you are waiting in vein for these new 'pathways' emma because I read somewhere that human evolution stopped with the invention of the bicycle, natural selection requiring geographically isolated populations or something. Terrible news for all those women living in romantic fantasy worlds and emotionally dependant on men. There but for the grace of god go I, sigh...

meva said...

Emma, you are making the assumption that if something doesn't benefit humankind then it has no intrinsic value. Conversely, why shouldn't our existence be expendable if it doesn't suit the whale, or the koala, or even the gnat.

Why are we so convinced of our own superiority? Just because we can destroy the world doesn't make us gods.

Unless of course, your arse-hole dawg teaches your kid how to use the pot...I'm all for the "man's best friend" thing! tee hee

"But let’s face it, the time for punching someone’s lights out because they’ve pinched your stash of Post-It notes is now well and truly over."

Well, that explains why people avoided me at the office.

Pink Drama said...

i always thought that certain animals had their uses because of what they do for the environment. i don't know which ones, and i'm not sure what use a koala or a chihuahua has, but oh well.

Luka said...

There is some comfort to be had in knowing this will also mean the eventual extinction of all those lengthy BBC natural history productions featuring David Attenborough.

Drunk Mummy said...

Did Kawi Chang Caine get his end away? I watched that whole series of Kung Fu for what seemed like forever, but I don't remember any naughty bits. Maybe GB saw a special jungle 'uncut' version.

Troika said...

Any animal that needs to be artificially inseminated deserves to go the way of the dodo.

You're damn right. Those couples that go on and fucking on about how many years they've been trying to have kids for and then go in for IVF treatment and then squeeze out fucking triplets, should be shot.

Just a toy said...

in response to your comment on the previous post.e I thought you used to visit my blog. I posted several pictures of myself on my blog. I doubt that I will start another blog anytime soon. My flight school keeps me to busy. Not to mention my girlfriend taking up the rest of the time.

Well here's a slight description of myself. I am 24 years old my birthday is in November. I'm 6" 1" tall I have dark hair. I do a lot of running and I workout at the gym twice a week. I am also addicted to clothes.

Midnight said...

If the chav is the result of evolution, could that be deemed as progress?

I think we all learn behaviours and adust to an extent.

For example, I'm more of a lover than a fighter, but I could exterminate a whole load of chavs in next to no time after the training I've been through. Unfortunately I'll have to make do with Terry Taliban for now.

jungle jane said...

Is that mouse eating a piece of steak?

I don't know about koalas being cute - they are grumpy beasts that trade off their cute looks and fluffy exterior.

I am cool with the whales going - you are right. They would make terrible pets.

Manuel said...

God if that's the case then I have even less time to cook and serve at least one of everything before I die. The pressure of it all.....

Ms Robinson said...

Evolution doesn't work; otherwise chick-lit would have eaten itself by now. Shame.

EmmaK said...

gorilla bananas....interesting point. Never thought of that. Maybe evolution has stopped working for humans. Maybe it's time the gorillas took over the planet with you as their leader, eh GB?

vi....that's funny that koalas pee on tourists, it's their way, I suppose, of saying, fuck off I don't want you gawping at me.

conortje...masturbating is only good for the environment if you scatter your seed on a vegetable patch. Don't let me see you wasting such a valuable fertilizer by soaking it up in a non-recyclable tissue, that's all I ask!

rilly super...no, the pathways are being re-laid as we speak, but alas, it will take about three million years for metrosexuality amongst men to take off. Until then we will just have to do with our romance novels and soaps...;)

meva...you make some excellent points as always, but my post was a little tongue in cheek. I don't necessarily think humans are superior to animals, only humans have for one reason or another been able to dominate animals up until now, to kill them, and use them for their purposes. In consequence, many breeds of animals are dying out as humans spread out across the globe. If a tribe of whales, gnats or koalas eventually takes over the world, I'm all for it even if it means I die. I know I'm expendable.

jj...Genius!! Your dog potty trained your kid. Wow! In that case, he is worth his weight in gold.

Haden Powell said...

liking dirty picturem not the fucking dog i mean that one with money slapped on your thigh, dirty lass how much for a bit of ming e or even just a nipple? i've got some boots vouchers and that

EmmaK said...

fat sparrow...I bet you pecked the poor bugger to pieces who nicked your Post-Its. I'd have liked to have seen that.

pink drama....I certainly do not wish to be rude, but if there's an evolutionary use for a chihuahua, I'm Queen Elizabeth the Second.

luka...listen, you must watch the Ricky Gervais DVD called Animals, which does a spoof of such a documentary. At the beginning there is a lioness and the lion mounts her and the commentator, in a wierd French accent says: "She does not know him, but she will fuck him anyway. Why, because she is a little slut." It's hilarious!

drunk mummy...I wish I could help you on this point but I've never watched Kung Fu, alas.

troika....You missed your calling, my dear. With a bedside manner that sensitive, you should have been a doctor!;)

just a toy....I did used to visit your blog but maybe the photos were in the older posts, in any case I didn't see them. As for your description of yourself, well, let's just say you sound like a bit of all right.

Oh well, if you aren't going to start a blog at least pop back here now and again. When you have qualified as a pilot you can write your autobiography.

midnight...That would be so hilarious, to see the US and the UK unite in a fight against the big enemy: The War Against Chavs. Unfortunately it would mean that Bush would be eliminated during this offensive due to having the IQ of a pretzel but still, it would be fun.

jungle jane...You are so right. I tried to buy a fish tank for a whale once but the pet shop people told me to sod off. If they don't make fish tanks big enough it's time for the whales to go the way of the dodo say I.

manuel...may I suggest you move to China in the meantime so that you get a full range of disgusting animal parts to cook before the animals all die out. As you probably know, chicken embryos and bull and dog penises all feature in their regional cuisine. Have fun.

ms robinson...I think many of the comments have made it clear, evolution is definately not about the most intelligent people rising to the top and thus making the world more erudite etc. No, it is the sheer brute force of the imbeciles that will set future trends. In the future, chick lit will probably be given the same reverence as Shakespeare, as, in all probability, in thirty years time, no one will be able to read anything but text messages.

EmmaK said...

haden powell....Ten quid will get you a flash of my tits. Minge will set you back thirty quid in Boots vouchers. Or we could just do a photo exchange, a picture of your bollocks in exchange for my flaps?

We are not and never will be anything other than human. So our perspective isn't going to change. Animals, fuck'em. (not in a Welsh way)

I love what gorilla bananas said! That explains almost everything lmao And can I apologise for what my 'habits' seem to have done to the environment, altho Im sure it cant be all my fault since I only started doing it three years ago!
