What if our bodies were different?

[pennypinch]

Just standing in line at the Wendy's, and I was thinking, what if our bodies did things differently?

Worst three things (in order):

1) If flatulence resulted in a visible green cloud or mist enveloping the perpetrator.

2) Non-opposable thumbs.

3) No jaw

Best three things: (in order):

1) Prehensile tongue

2) Opposable big toe (although how that would impact running is to be seen)

3) 360 degree joints

Your ideas?

Oh, I guess smell glands, like a skunk, could go in both categories...

hey thats odd I was just thinking THE EXACT same thing..except I added in the fact that teeth growing on the outside would be a bonus.

Wings and an exoskeleton.

A working appendix and tonsils so I can eat raw meat with no worries.

Infra-red heat vision

an internal magnetic sense like homing pidgeons and some whale species have.

5 eyes spaced eqidistant around my head

what if we "saw" by tasting? instead of heavily relying on our eyesight mainly, why not have a tentacular tongue, that envelops anything to "see" that object?

kinda slimy...

"you have nice looking breasts!"

or

"It looks like dog shit to me.."

if you had x-ray vision all you would see are peoples bones. On the plus side you could let them know if they have any diseases :)
