Civilisation is great. Fire. The wheel. YouTube. What's your favourite thing about not living in trees like an animal? For me, I find it hard to decide between hot water and bread. They're both pretty great.

I like it when my side has tanks and planes and we bomb dirt farmers and animal herders. Am I talking about the game? maybe

Stairs. I often wonder who was the first person to come up with the concept, its an innovation that gets overlooked constantly. What would a world without stairs look like? Appreciate every step.

Being able to sit at a desk pretending to look at a glowing box while clicking a little plastic oval rather than having to hunt/gather or engage in subsistence farming. Also currency is nice because I'm bad at negotiating and barter would get old pretty fast.

Obviously I appreciate the advancements in medicine, science, and technology that make our lives so convenient and relatively healthy and happy. But my favorite thing? Dogs. Definitely dogs.

Groke posted:Those go back a ways before civilization, though. This is true, but the variety of breeds that can be found today are mostly a result of civilization. The German Shepherd, for instance, created to be the most versatile working dog on the planet, can be everything from a soldier to a child's companion. It is what we as a species have been able to accomplish with the domestic dog that fascinates me - our relationship with dogs predates civilization, but it also helped evolve it, and continues to do so.
