      I’m pretty sure there have been people who hate barnacles more than Charles Darwin after they’ve been keelhauled.

        Bold to pick a date 70 years after his death. In that case, I’m 1993 Darwin, rolling in his grave at the launch of the Darwin Awards.

    Darwin was famously seasick, but also wanted to really look at birds and shit. Bad combination.

    “So, what didn’t he hate?”, I hear you ask.

    Worms. He loved worms. The man could watch them for hours.
