"Sapiens" , the Wise One, is a comic misnomer for man. A glance around Canada and the globe this Christmas season will confirm it. We used common sense to name other species of hominid but are blindly self-congratulatory choosing our own name. If there had been an adult around, they might have picked a more distinctive name like The Ape with the Big Dink. (
As Instapundit puts it, attracting chicks can explain why the Sapiens phallus is about double the size of the nearest ape competitor,) A more modest name that recognizes we have some skills has already been used. Homo Habilis.
Habilis=skilful, suitably nimble
If you wish to pursue the Big Dink topic.
