I, for one, welcome our new dolphin overlords

When I saw this news article about researchers finding a dolphin with “legs” I immediately remembered reading an article in the Onion that rings so incredibly true it’s amazing.  The Onion’s take is hilarious and worth a read, it had me crying the first time I read it:

“I believe I speak for the entire human race when I say, ‘Holy f@$*,'” said Oceanographic Institute director Dr. James Aoki, noting that the dolphin has a cranial capacity 40 percent greater than that of humans. “That’s it for us monkeys.”

Indeed.  It’s funny as hell, but it’s also very cool that they have such a direct link to dolphins having once had limbs (the actual article, not The Onion spoof).
