The origin of whales
Our most recent common ancestor spent quite a bit of time on land, as whales and humans are both mammals.
A shame the whales got priced out though, although they may have won out in the long run. I wonder if it's too late for us to follow in their steps and return to the water as well.
Seriously, I went to Kohl's yesterday and got two pairs of jeans, two shirts, and a pack of socks. The total was over $200 USD, and that includes sales.
I ended up returning the jeans and socks. If I were a fish I wouldn't have legs anyway.
One time I found jeans at Costco for <10 USD, didn't need any but you might as well try
wow I went to kohls a few weeks ago when they had their 50% off clearance sale and got a few pants, shirts and a sewing machine for around $120. I never really shopped at kohls before but we had to do an amazon return and that was the drop off point. we were going to get some baby clothes that was on clearance when the cashier let us know that the 50% off day was coming up, and she let us put the clothes on hold until then
Ah, yes. I, too, visit the grocery store on occasion.
