sometimes I wish we humans had tails so we could do even more acrobatics and other cool stuff.
but then I remember how pleasurable it is to rest with your back on the ground, and a tail seems like it'll be such a pain in the ass (literally) for that.
still not giving up on the tail though, what nature taketh away technology shall deliver. detachable prehensile tail, get to work on it tech people! I don't even want patent money for this billion-dollar idea, just a nice long tail in matte silver.
I've reconsidered, I want three actually - one in matte silver for when I'm just hanging out, one in my own skin colour for formal occasions when I want to look somber, and one in a cool glossy black for those cool sexy parties that I totally go to all the time. three tails, in return for a unicorn startup idea, pretty good deal I think!
Got thinking about this when I read some English news outlet call Hanuman "the Monkey God" - that reminded me of my theory that maybe the Vaanaraa-s of Ramayana were early Hominids, that looked more ape-like but were sapient enough to communicate and cooperate.
