My wife's reviewing a future Biology curriculum and she came to me with a sentence she needed to suggest a revision for because it was "just stupid." It said:
"Plants are easier to study because they don't move."
I tried to get her to change it to "Plants are easier to study because they don't scream" and apparently my "future's not in curriculum." 
Oh no. Now I have to go tell her she was right on top of the indignity 😬
@BE just needs a footnote
*loud enough for humans to hear
The real indignity is that the 12yo's working on it with her now. I've been sidelined 😂
@BE @Hellybootwader
Some book about plants from my parents house from the 70s or something had an afterword which said there was research that tomatoes scream when cut, so you might be wrong.
@BE plants are better to study because they have to adapt to changing conditions, and can’t move improve their chances of survival.
*yes plants are better- they are much more adaptable - and nothing else much can survive without them
**I might be a bit biased
