Recycled Assets: Nature's Copy-Paste Function
Evolution said "copy-paste" and called it convergent evolution! The meme shows how two completely separate mammal orders (Eulipotyphla and Afrosoricida) independently evolved nearly identical body plans. Nature basically created the same character designs twice but on different continents. It's like when your biology professor accuses you of plagiarism but you're just like "No, I swear, we came up with identical answers independently!" Convergent evolution is just Mother Nature being too lazy to create new assets for her game. Next update better include some original content!

Hmm Yes, I Think I Will Evolve Something New Today...
Evolution really said "Let's make crabs again!" and hit copy-paste FIVE TIMES! 🦀 This is carcinization in action - nature's bizarre obsession with turning random sea creatures into crab-shaped beings. Different species independently evolved crab-like forms in a process so common biologists call it "everything eventually becomes a crab." Earth is basically running a simulation with limited character designs! Next update: probably more crabs.
