Evolution Erasers - Neatorama

Japanese designer Hiroyuki Shiratori developed erasers that are shaped like the gradually evolving form between modern humans and their ancient ancestors. You can evolve as you correct mistakes. Link (Google Translate) via Colossal | Photo: H-Concept

Too bad something so cool is wasted on the misnomer that we evolved from chimpanzees. Chimps and Humans share a common ape-like ancestor. Just like Snookie from Jersey Shore and Albert Einstein share a common ancestor. Noone would ever make the argument that Snookie could evolve into someone as sophisticated as Einstein.

I don't think the "ancestor" shape is meant to be a chimpanzee. It just looks ape-like to me.

You didn't click the link then. They show the silhouettes and it's the classic chimp to man progression that is still seems to hang onto the mainstream.

Ooooh remember those schools? The ones that don't teach the theory of evolution for "reasons".

Because I smell some harmless trolling opportunities
