In my household, everyone thinks she looks like a cavewoman.

Who puts these things together? Hilarious.

I mean the Rubble and Flintsone men did wear skirts. And ALWAYS went sleeveless to show the guns. No one said she is ugly, just favors Barney, a handsome slightly post CAVE, man
Her ugliness comes from deep in her bone marrow. A sick
hateful, ignorant kind of ugly.

Whoever thought of using this clip in the commercial deserved a raise. The words in this catchy little ditty mesh so perfectly with the caveman proceeding slowly on the conveyor.

Neanderthals are depicted as numbskulls, but the opposite was true, according to science. They were quite intelligent, and that's likely why there is so much Neanderthal DNA in our strain of homo sapiens. Still, there's no excuse for neither DeSantis nor MTG. Both are in human retrograde mode.

the goalposts on Neanderthal abilities and (probable) intelligence. Other hand - there was little really solid evidence for the previous characterizations (other than residual smug assumption of 'natural order' and 'superiority.')

And still - the 'humor' part is pretty culturally ingrained. (just like the cheap riffs we employ on 'inbreeding') Probably best just to take these things as intended.

…different but did not fit into into any particular genetic disorder, my own adjective for that was “syndromey.” She looks syndromey to me - her eyes a small, her facial features are coarse and rather flat looking, her ears are low set, and her upper lip is on the thin side.
