    I didn’t even take a stance on what the teeth mean for diet. I was just correcting you lol.

      I mean the source you provided literally says the bottom canines are less pointy and pronounced than the top set, especially in humans, so I don’t feel very corrected? You keep at it though, I believe in you!

        says the bottom canines

        The bottom what? Bottom canines? So you’re arguing they’re not what they are literally called?

          Still dying to know how the tooth’s name at all indicates anything of its function. Canines are literally omnivores. Most primates use theirs for fighting. So please, if you’re done with the ad hominem I’d love to see you try to defend this here comment.

              “garbage” ‘gibbering nonsense’

              Are you a conservative by chance? Masterfully sidestepping the question yet again!

                Was that meant as an ad hominem? I thought you didn’t like those.

                Garbage was a reference to what you were adding to the “discussion”, not you as a person, so doesn’t qualify as ad hominem.

                Same for gibbering nonsense.

                  I ask you questions and you sidestep them over and over and over again and I’m adding garbage to the conversation?

                    Yes, you add garbage into the conversation (disingenuous questions) and you get garbage out (me ignoring the question).

                    That’s another word you got wrong. I’m not sidestepping anything. I am blatantly ignoring it.

                    Or is it only fun when you’re doing it?

                    I’m just having a good time.

          And how, pray tell, does the name ‘canines’ factor into your argument? I’m dying to know.
