Comment on What animal could you take in a fight?
DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 3 months agoOutsmarting and outlasting is a real advantage: We are the apex predator (to our own detriment of course, but don’t sell humans short we’re some scary-ass apes when you get down to it).

not in the context of the question… sure our outsmating/outlasting certainly offsets and overwhelms any talon, claws, fangs, venom nature can throw at us… but the context here is a mano a mano fight

Which includes our cunning and endurance: How would that not apply?

I would assume that, the term “fight” implies a more direct combat… Not a scenario where we can plan for traps and such
If I ask you in person if you’d beat me in a fight? You wouldn’t think of a scenario where we both come home and make a master plan to ruin each other… It would be more like “let’s go or the parking lot and beat each other like monkeys”
It’s just the scenario I imagined from the question

You say that like people don’t improvise on the spot, many are very, very good at it.
…or maybe I have some pocket sand!
SHASHASHA! POCKET SAND!
