Do you remember those painfully cringey mobile game ads where a miserable level 1 crook helps out a woman that's being chased by a few guys and becomes a lavish level 35 boss?
Adapt or die. This statement could be used to "motivate" everyone and everything from single-cell organisms to cassette tapes.
So we at Bored Panda decided to search through the internet and collect the funniest evolution memes we could find. The world is constantly changing and we need to keep up!

Excellent Evolution
They'll chop off your... bits, breed you with unlikely partners, shave your fur, teach you silly tricks, put you on a leash, ...and try to feed you vegetables in the end.
Reminds me of when people are attracted to someone and then they systematically set out to twist and alter that person to fit some ideal in their head until that person no longer resembles who they were in the beginning.... Makes as much sense as dressing up your animals in crocheted hats.
Load More Replies...Evolution Of Batman (Colorized)
That's true! I can't seem to make out most new movies and series anymore as they've all gotten so dark they're almost black. How can we stop this stupid trend?
And you can’t hear half of the dialogue cos it’s all mumbled
Load More Replies...I truly miss good ol’ campy Batman where he and the Joker had zany chases on surf boards (yes, this did happen)
I want to fight WITH YOU. ANYTIME ANYWHERE
Load More Replies...Overly dark lighting that makes film noir seem bright and the muffled voices where you grasp every third word is what we're getting. So, no, I won't be dropping $10 for a movie I can't pause, rewind, and play.
Clearly he wants to change his name to the dark night. Or Bruce Wane(Like the moon when it's waning)
Full Circle
It's your own fault for being so tasty when coated in crumbs and deep fried! 😋
Load More Replies...They're the only kind I get and I'm no spring chicken.
Load More Replies...I always keep an eye on my kids' plates for leftovers.
Ah, not exactly. All of these reconstituted things (Dinosaurs / Nuggets / Burgers / Twizzles etc) are made from an interesting by product of the poultry industry called MRM (Mechanically Recovered Meat) ; basically after all of the 'useful' cuts (Breast / Leg /Wing etc) have been removed from the carcass the remaining bit is fed through a machine that flails off any remaining meat and collects it in huge hoppers (this is a grey, slimy, vile smelling load of gloop btw), the bits that haven't yet been used (Wattles / Feet / Heads and so on) are added to this gloop and sent of for further processing into Dinosaurs / Nuggets etc.... ) Still want to feed your kids that stuff ? I speak as someone who worked in a chicken processing factory for over a year, no one in that place ate chicken or fed their families anything that had processed Chicken in it.
Youtube Evolution
Not to mention HOW and WHEN they cut away for the ads in the middle. They don’t run the ads at a natural pause in the action and dialog. No. They cut, suddenly and unexpectedly, in the middle of a sentence, in the middle of a dance, in the middle of the action. That shows a distinct lack of respect for what is being shown in the video, which means a total lack of respect for those who contribute every single one of the very videos that f*****g MADE YouTube what it is! What needs to happen is for YouTube to have a viable commercial-free competitor—-one they just can’t manage to crush—-that takes all their business away.
This. Is. So. Accurate. Corporate greed. By the way, interrupt my video and I will never purchase from you.
Instead of a deduction, we need a tax on advertising!
Load More Replies...Just one more step to an ad to watch an ad
Load More Replies...I got an unskippable 15-second ad... on a video that was 10 seconds long. 😐
not unless you use Brave Browser- no ads at all, in fact no ads anywhere!
I don't understand why they would harm their product by adding ever more commercials, rather than just charging more to run the commercials they already have. Clearly, there are plenty of companies willing to pay.
Pinnacle Of Evolution
This is exactly why I've been saying for years, if reincarnation is real, I want to come back as a duck!
Load More Replies...My town currently hosts a flock of Canada geese migrating with a lone little duck just chilling with them 😅 he gives you the MEANEST look of you make eye contact, I’m more scared of him than the cobra chickens
Load More Replies...Ducks are superior, Feed them now and they will spare you during the invasion.
The Evolution Of Expertise
C'mon Keith, our only clout is with each other, lol. Edit- happy belated birthday guy.
Load More Replies...I hate when a random person thinks whatever knowledge they got from facebook triumphs the years upon years of college someone went through in order to be in the field they are.
Esp when they are looking for posts that reinforce what they already decided they believe.
Load More Replies...2023: Random mom in Mommy Facebook Group who believes that essential oils can revive the dead
That's interesting, so every real expert depicted is a man and stupidity is a woman? The Karenism is implicitly sexist
Too late, it started in 2016, and it's called Trump supporters as opposed to the athletic kind
Load More Replies...That's so pathetic it's a tiny bit funny. It leaves a very uncomfortable feeling in my stomach, though.
This right here perfectly sums up the downfall of the United States

The apocalypse movies, tv shows and games are actually just preparing us for the housing market and extreme wealth disparities
We are already in " extreme wealth disparities " mode
Load More Replies...I have a collection of machetes and golf clubs just for the zombie apocalypse
Load More Replies...Left out the 2020s - living in a sleeping bag with a wall made of old cardboard cartons, under a bridge abutment. With 300 other people, mostly drugged-up.
Wouldn't you want to escape your mind if you had to live under a bridge?
Load More Replies...I don't think that anyone even makes starter homes any more, just like the auto industry doesn't make basic cars. There's more profit to be made in the high end products.
The last one looks like a starter pack for fighting off zombies while hiking it to look for other people
Whereas my Sims starter homes tend to get more and more elaborate
Real Evolution
At first glance I've read the letters "a" and "y" in "reality" and "tter" in "better" and was convinced it says "Harry Potter". Time to clean my glasses.
Load More Replies...I'm still a bit mad they chose Alan Rickman as Snape when Snape was supposed to be in his mid-30s in the books
You are, of course, completely right, but the fact that it was Alan Rickmann more than made up for that error.
Load More Replies...This reminds me of that Family Guy episode with the hot news anchor that turns out to be hideous when they actually see her in HD lol
I upvoted you out of negative because your made a bunch of hilarious comments on one BP article yesterday.
Load More Replies...LMAO OMG! I was scrolling down 1 pic at a time and was NOT expecting Snape! Well played evolution.
Evolution
Ok but this is unfair! We're still very fierce. And very afraid
As the owner of a pet parrot 🦜 you are indeed very fierce and very afraid of plastic water bottles.
Load More Replies...I held a hawk recently. She sat on the glove on my hand, looked me right in the eye and screamed just as the handler was saying she could rip my face off if she wanted. I've never been happier. Also, geese. No-one whose ever met a pissed off goose would agree that birds are not fierce.
Jepp, friends had a parrot that was only able to walk. And they also had three dogs. Guess who was the boss... 😎
Load More Replies...And seagulls.....British seagulls can terrify the bravest souls!
Load More Replies...hey, ever had a run in with a pissed off goose? even f they don't have the big teeth, sharp beak, talons/claws or size, they still have the ALL of the attitude.
I'm in North Dakota where we still have a metric f**k ton of snow and I saw the first goose of the season a few days ago and immediately thought "Oh no. They have returned."

Ah The Circle Of Life
I am also becomming as big and round again as I was in the beginning
The CD came later, I was born in 1983 and I had cassettes as a little girl
It seems like they used the years when the technologies came out, not when they peaked. (LPs came out in 1948, Compact Casette-1963, CD-1983 and so on)
Load More Replies...Whoever made this needs a history lesson. There should be 8 tracks in the 70's, cassette tapes in the 80's, CD's in the mid 90's, etc.
I have some of my grandparents 78 records. They are thick and heavy
Load More Replies...So do I... I have my father's 1970 Sylvania console stereo w/8-track player, which still works perfectly, and the original 8-track tapes and vinyl (from Merle Haggard to KISS and including the ones my father recorded with his gospel group).
Load More Replies...This is misleading, the vinyl groupies never switched, and the non-vinyl types won't bother with it.
well they're really popular with gen z now. I didn't know they still sod vinyl records because I had never even seen a record player before I saw them online (-gen z lol)
Load More Replies...Joke still funny but for any young folks wondering they are using the years they were invented, not when they became ubiquitous. In the 60s I'd never heard of a cassette tape and my music came from an AM radio (not portable) and a "portable" (as in had a handle) record player. In HS in the 70s I had an 8 track tape player in my car.
there were MINI Discs in late 90s to 2010s. they were nearly half the size of CD and can record 74 or so min, and can be re-recorded many times. but it never caught on.
Evolution Stuff
Nope, this is a fish that became a dog and is trying to get back to being a fish again.
Yes! Just checking to see if anyone else did too!
Load More Replies...To be scientifically accurate, a sea lion is a dog trying to become a fish.
Evolution Is A Lie
That was an idea originally proposed by the military back in the 1960s, and guess what, scientists ran the numbers and it would stop the hurricane, you just will have a radioactive rain after. NASA, NOAA, and the Military are working on a bomb that would be able to do this without the radioactive side
Load More Replies...The scope lmao. looks like they just have fun and it's a giant irl shitpost, at least based on those 3 pictures
Please tell me they were just being ironic/ playing to a social media hype and not thinking it would actually work! Please!
YO IM A PERSON I SWEAR I DONT WANT TO LIVE HERE ITS NOT MY CHOICE. (and honestly I've only ever met one person who collected guns and he was my age and the creepy dude in my class)
Load More Replies...In theory this is scientifically sound, execution was just lacking. More people and more fans and you could blow a hurricane away. And if you are falling off a cliff you may as well try and fly, hell you've got nothing to lose.
Evolution Is Unfair

Cheat Codes Now And Then
Yeah.. And today it got to point when it is not worth it to play any online competitive game, if you are not a cheater. This is one of the reasons I left the shooter games probably forever. So sad.
I love the 3rd person single player RPGs. RDR2, Skyrim, Fallout, etc... I play video games to escape the world, so don't want to bring the world into my video games.
Load More Replies...Pay to win games are so bogus. Once get to a point on phone game where I can't advance w/o having to buy gems, coins, etc I'm out.
Same. I absolutely refuse. So much of it is built on frustration as motivation that even if it's on an actual gaming system where you can purchase it for $15 I won't waste my time or money.
Load More Replies...Or the really old days when I was super stuck in a game, taking out the manual for the address on back to send off through post office for their hint guide that would be mailed to me. That took a good 6-8weeks just to get a hint lol
Load More Replies...It's a lot less fun than it was back then. Video games are so much easier because of in-game purchases, you can buy weapons and gear, even skip levels for just a few dollars. :(
Ik with power leveling, buying all fancy gear and specials so you can just walk around like a God, but you never actually *did* anything. Like just go by an action figure. The fun comes from playing and learning the game and earning rewards and finding exclusive items and figuring out how to achieve them. They just buy a game then buy an end game character to do what? Talk s**t in chat?
Load More Replies...One time a few years ago I looked up a bunch of cheat codes to get money in a LEGO game (Maybe LEGO Dimensions) but they were a one-time use for each profile :(
Evolution Failed Us. We’ll Get ‘Em Next Time
The temperature required to kill the infection is way higher than the temparature your body can survive. The reason you get a fever is because certain proteins work faster when warm so your immune system works faster to get rid of the infection.
Thank you. I didn't know that. (not being sarcastic)
Load More Replies...Immune system: I've given us a fever to fend of these evil microbes. Me: *takes anti-pyretics to reduce fever*. Immune system: WTF
I've successfully killed colds in the very early stages by making an artificial fever. I get in a hot bath with a good book until my temperature rises to 102 degrees, then I go to bed all bundled up.
I'd put on my wool long johns, load the bed up with blankets, turn the electric blanket to high, curl up in the foetal position and moan. I think the last two did the most good.
Load More Replies...And every virus has the same symptoms...runny nose, cough, possibly a fever, and whining. 🤭

Language Evolution
Be careful if you're white using it, the meme police are out read an article just yesterday about "appropriating" black culture memes with some thinking it's making black people the butt of white people jokes. I think that's a bit much, but that's the world we live in rn
Load More Replies...And "who is you". A coworker actually answered her phone that way once.
Load More Replies...resisting the urge to be "that guy" but i'll be that guy. "Who art thou" would have been used a few centuries earlier, probably around the 16th-17th (ballparking here). 19th-century English is basically 20th-century english wearing a fancy hat-a few random capitalizations and bigger words, but still the same/similar. thanks for reading my rant on a silly internet meme.
I have no problem with language evolving and becoming more current, more efficient and to the point. BTW, the lyrics are "who him is". It conveys the message very well. Stop policing language. If we constantly did that we'd still be stuck with "who art thou?" And "Hwær stent se gangern?". A language that does not evolve is a dead language.
I think you have a point, depending on the scenario in which the words are used. As a writer, most current slang I just throw out the window. But much like memes, certain language when spoken can be less time consuming. The biggest problem is that a ton of us have no idea what these people are saying whatsoever and it's like learning another language when we had something that already mostly worked.

Evolution Guys
I was there when Walkmans came out. And the headphones were super light, little circles of sponge on a thin flat wire. so comfy. They evolved into Beats? WTH?
They always hurt my ears. No idea about beats though, I'm not familiar with that brand.
Load More Replies...Yes. And they suck. The earbuds deliver highs and mids while the bigger part of the headphone cup delivers the bass. They sound great but it's a pain in the a*s to get the earbuds to properly seat inside of your ears. They're constantly coming out. They're just too much of a pain in the a*s to wear
Load More Replies...I have a pair of these headphones. They sound great. That is until 2 minutes after you get the earbuds inserted and then they come back out. These things are pain in the a*s to wear.
Evolution.... Yes
Actually they are closer to the cows, so giant swimming cows

This article is seriously trying to attack me personally. And anyway, can't you see the profound majesty of the chicken
Don’t worry. You are a beautiful bird. This article is nothing but propaganda
Load More Replies...Tbf, we should at least put an cassowary there when comparing to T-rex.
Trust me, chickens still think they're apex predators. Our flock once skeletonized a rat in less than an hour. The only reason the babies survived was because the rat hid them under a brick.
I've seen a demented rooster attack a toddler, so not that far from T. Rex. I was a kid, and an adult quickly intervened.

I'm sticking with Kubuntu Linux. I use Win10 otherwise (rarely). No Win11 for me until Win10 is completely unsupported. Windows is at its best right before they pull the plug.
Evolution Of Grill
Yeah, I'm noticing more and more of the newer electric designs ditching the grill altogether. It's like they finally reached a point where they realized they don't need to disguise EVs as gas vehicles to get sales.

Damn 🤣 I sense a really common theme of birbs and mighty & magnificent chickens
I don't understand these. I think I stopped evolving at the same time as theoretical science - about the time that Microsoft stopped moving forwards and started moving backwards - mid 1970s.
