About

Skull Comparisons refers to a series of image macros that parody diagrams that compare skulls of the different stages of human evolution. However, instead of the different skulls of humanity's growth, all of the skulls look the same except for one, which the meme's author denotes as less evolved based on the opinion or action described in the skull's captioning text.
