THIS EXPLAINS SO MUCH

The human species began as the hybrid offspring of a male pig and a female chimpanzee, a leading geneticist has suggested.

You hear this a lot in divorce courts

[O the U(manity)]

But did he still respect her in the morning?

A living, breathing turducken.

I fully expected this 'leading geneticist' to reside in either Florida or Texas. Since Georgia is contiguous to Florida, I suspect there's an issue with the weirdness moat along the state line.

[Clankazoid]

Undoubtedly the lineage of geneticists.

"...has been met by significant opposition ..."

Led by a coalition of Chimpanzees and Pigs, who are calling it defamation and threatening to sue.

By the way, the Mail's editorial policy requires boring articles about genetics and stuff to have at least one picture of a nude lady. For reference.

Maybe this is just where politicians came from.

Once the male pig has his beer goggles on, all bets are off.

[Meanie the Blue]

Days of Swine and Rhesus?

[Steve]

To be true, either the male or the female had to be the pig.
Bets as to which?

[K]

Actually, it was a female pig and male chimpanzee, but they switched it around so as to make it more politically correct.

Hey, this way, at least the ladies get the opposible thumbs and the elemental language and tool-using skills...the men just get to stand there in squalor until PETA rescues them...

[Annie Where-but-here]

I wanna travel the road that Meanie the Blue's brain went down to come up with Swine & Rhesus. Butt first I need a tetanus shot.

[billb]

hey it is well known that the sheep in NZ are not safe from the locals, why not a pretty looking pig....FTR, I have never found anything attractive beyond a beer.....

[Fabian Marson]

Paging Jerry Springer.

[Ralph]

Some Pig.

[Elon]

They just wanted an excuse to run the nude lady. I don't think this "hypothesis" is worth the paper it is printed on.

[XJ]

So this is why humans and pigs taste the same? Um, I mean SUPPOSEDLY taste the same. Yeah.

[Joe in Japan]

The whole concept sounds logical enough but

Kermit is not going to like this one little bit

[ken in sc]

This is suspiciously close to what Muslims claim about Jews.

Are we sure this guy's name is really McCarthy?

You might ask how a masculine pig
Got a chimp that was female to dig
Him enough to have sex.
I’m guessing a hex,
Using feathers and maybe a fig.

In A Pig's Eye!
