Yeah, this is kinda just a sex-oriented version of weird infomercial products.

Now I'm picturing the "r/wheredidthesodago" moments for this. Black and white clip of Girl unzipping a guy's pants to find a floppy penis, upset look and big X over screen. Annoyed looking wife reading in bed as husband walks in wearing gimp suit.

Complete with voice over "and other forms of communication can be difficult and hard to use" as guy texts "hey girl dtf??" And dick pic. Then camera pans up to show it went to his grandmother. Cut to upset reaction then face palm.

Hermit crabs have more legs than any of these, and they flip houses to fit their needs, evicting (killing) the previous tenants as needed. They are too badass for that chart though.

In the hermit crab's case, theft is (intrinsic) property.

Except they don't kill snails for the shells. They will yank another hermit crab out of a shell if they can, and then the loser has to make do with the less optimal shell the winner used to have. So at least they're loving over each other, and not the producing proletariat.

They'll also trigger a trading war when a new shell becomes available. Everyone wants a better shell, so they all start swapping around in a game of musical chairs until the worst shell ends up empty.

It's like some kind of analogy about a group of crabs not letting each other get ahead in the world might be apt.

Ah, misread, thanks.

While interesting, using arbitrary continents as the measure seems less useful, since Eurasia and the Americas should each be a single continent.

"Continents" is an arbitrary word with zero agreed-upon definition. Depending on where you went to school, there are four, five, six or seven continents. PNG either is or isn't part of Australasia, and New Zealand either is or isn't part of Australasia as well. North and South America are a single continent in some school systems. It's a shambles, but it's never been hammered out because the term isn't super useful to geologists and geographers.

There are no continents. These overgrown little islands we live on are pale shadows of their mighty ancestors, which abandoned us to our fate long ago.

It turns out that underneath the water in between the "continents" they're connected to each other. They're basically big above ground mesas.
