Anapsid

Offspring the Second, ever so intelligent and humorous, had this to say on social media the other day:

Science insult: referring to someone as an anapsid, because not only does it imply that they are decidedly primitive and non-mammalian, but also that their jaw muscles are contained within their skull, causing them to put pressure on their brain every time they move their mouth.

I can think of a few people who may fit that description.

Hee. Me, too.

We miss having Offspring the Second's quiet, astute, and always-wise observations in the house.
