Maybe this is real, I'm no expert, but it does have a whiff of the photoshop to me.

If that is a 2013 nissan micra on the left it'd be smaller in all but height than what looks to be a 1990 ford escort.

Barter or non-monetary terms of trade would emerge. Probably, if your economy was large enough to involve lots of one off interactions with strangers then some commodity would become de-facto money.

You don't really have to exist though. Any rw demagogue worth their salt can whip up a decent amount of fear of and anger towards imaginary freeloaders without any in reality.

Internet says in French they just generalise to say 'bird'.

'Straight as an arrow' , or 'as the arrow flies', might be better though; pretty straight if there's no wind.

I used to have a friend who pronounced "arrow" like "owl" so maybe go with that.

This also has me thinking about making a bee-line for something.

It's shite being English. We're the lowest of the low, The scum of the fucking Earth. The most wretched, miserable, servile, pathetic trash, that was shat into civilisation!

This one was quite widespread in UK TV, it was one of the first government films to use such shocking imagery and dark themes, 40mph vs 30mph. it's probably a bit mild by today's standards, but it was notorious at the time..

Evolve Necrosis FTW. Gotta have corpse-to-living tx. The real problem with plague inc. is the motivation though the disease is likely dead one turn after humanity.

This is where we need a conspiracy theory that all complex life is just an intricate biological shell/animate castle-o-saurus, designed to protect and nourish a few self replicating acids, with defense mechanisms to try to kill any interlopers that seek to replicate faster without dissuading anything sexually compatible.

Come on, at least tell us how many differences we're supposed to be spotting.

No the point is exactly what i think , in exactly the way that i think it. I understand exactly entirely and completely how evolution works. /s

I feel especially bad for the trainer. They really are asking to be replaced if that's their attitude to teaching.
