SabreFan1 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 1 hour ago, Toews said: Among nature’s most exquisite adaptations are examples in which natural selection has favored a species (the mimic) to resemble a second, often unrelated species (the model) because it confuses a third species (the receiver). For example, the individual members of a nontoxic species that happen to resemble a toxic species may dupe any predators by behaving as if they are also dangerous and should therefore be avoided. In this way, adaptive resemblances can evolve via natural selection. When this phenomenon—dubbed “mimicry”—was first outlined by Henry Walter Bates in the middle of the 19th century, its intuitive appeal was so great that Charles Darwin immediately seized upon it as one of the finest examples of evolution by means of natural selection. Even today, mimicry is often used as a prime example in textbooks and in the popular press as a superlative example of natural selection’s efficacy. Moreover, mimicry remains an active area of research, and studies of mimicry have helped illuminate such diverse topics as how novel, complex traits arise; how new species form; and how animals make complex decisions. The sad thing is that I read the first few words seriously before my brain changed gears and realized you were mimicking again.... Link to comment

Pretty much. When I was on Facebook, and when someone was being preachy and annoying, you just went on the internet copied a whole bunch of nonsense and dumped it in the conversation to annoy that person. Multiple people would catch on, and the whole convo would just be people copy pasting random stuff on the internet. The person being trolled would then get annoyed as the conversation had been thoroughly derailed. Immature and stupid? Probably but also highly effective. Link to comment

I can see where that would definitely be annoying. It could backfire in a closed community like CDC though. If people decide to stop communicating with you because you've become too irritating to enjoy conversations with, you basically blackball yourself from the whole site. I can understand how that would be incredibly effective in a wide open community with millions of people on it like Facebook though. Link to comment
