    As someone who grows figs in their living room:

    Most commercial (and even hobbyist) fig varieties are parthenocarpic, meaning they don’t require pollination.

    And fig wasps don’t look like that. They’re tiny little guys that most people would probably mistake for a very small ant.

    And even if the fig was pollinated by a wasp, it uses enzymes to break down the insects body, to protect itself from mold and other pathenogens that such may cause.

    Basically; fig waps are itsy bitsy wittle wupies, while figs are digesting their dead mothers corpses, because they are metal as fuuuuuck.


  • it even has a tutor

    Yeah, people are just lazy. I remember when I invented a new login screen and was told it was “difficult”, “confusing” and “took some getting used to”.

    It even came with a free 100-page manual and a 4-hour master class. Some people, I tell you!

    ^This is meant more as a joke than an actual critique, even if it kind of reflects my thoughts. But ultimatly, I thought it was a funny bit.^
