    The gut exists to supply nutrients to the gonads. The muscles to feed the gut and handle the gonads output. The nervous system to control it all. Consciousness of it all, in all it’s utterly pointless glory, purely because apparently there’s a dark sense of humour somehow buried in universal statistics.
