    What’s up with the three commas, though?

      I just know that as a really shitty tequila

      But on a serious note… I don’t know. Whether regions use commas and decimal points in numbers like 1,234.56 or 1.234,56, it seems they still just use dots for an ellipsis.

      That’s how they use and ellipsis on Nissan IV.

      The three commas are perfect. Don’t mess with them.

      We evolved to be barefoot. Just sayin’.

          Does it not? Did our feet select toward the wearing of shoes that didn’t exist until long after the feet we evolved gained their basic structure?

            We didn’t evolve to BE barefoot. Simply that our progenitors survived long enough to pass on their genes, ostensibly by being mobile and healthy enough to procreate.

            That says nothing of bareness- a biologically successful group could simply be the ones who protected their feet enough to meet the original conditions (ie mating).

            In other words, you don’t armor where the bullet holes are when a war plane returns, you armor where they’re not.

              I think you’re being a little nitpicky. We didn’t evolve to be anything. Evolution is allele frequency over time.

              But in layman’s terms, we evolved to be barefoot because the structure of our feet evolved before shoes were invented and so the most efficient foot shape for walking without shoes was selected for.
