'Sup, Dudes!?
Why does Séamus have to be so nice and understanding? I feel like I'm being a total asshat, but he's just being kind and friendly…Y'know, all the things I'm not. He's too good for this comic. (Also, his skin is AMAZING! I wouldn't have expected someone who never wears a shirt to have such supple, wonderful skin. It's nice to put your face on his pecs and have your cheek resting against his man nipple.)
Now, I know what you're thinking: Why do guys even have nipples? Well, I have an answer for you: Evolution.
You see, evolution isn't some kind of design where everything is carefully thought through and optimized from scratch for every kind of organism. Instead, it's more like things go along and, whoops! We've got a mutation. Well, looks like that mutation isn't preventing this organism from passing its genes along, so the genes will be passed along. And then that happens a bunch of times over generations, and eventually you have lots different types of life forms. That also means, though, that something doesn't just go away because it's useless for that type of organism. Unless that feature is preventing the genes from being passed on, it will stick around. (There's also stuff about recessiveness and everything, but there's only so much that a Scribb1e can cover.)
Basically, males have nipples, despite distinct deficiencies in dairy development, because having useless, worthless nipples doesn't keep them from passing their genes on to the next generation of benippled creatures. (I wonder what Brian's [biologist] mom thinks of the number of times I've mentioned nipples in this Scribb1e…It's okay, Brian also has a life science degree [in neuroscience], so they're both into gross stuff!)
Isn't evolution cool? I think it's cool. If you don't think evolution's cool, then maybe…um…idk…like, keep that to yourself? That's honestly something you should be suuuuuuper embarrassed about. I mean, Billie sucks imo, but even she knows that evolution is where it's at!
Okay, I've probably offended all of the people who deserve to be offended. Tune in again next week for the comic that often features foul language and partial nudity, where there will probably be more of that. PLUS, maybe I'll be on a skateboard (and won't even complain about my recently introduced sister). We'll just have to see what happens!
