The “most intelligent dino$$$$$$$$$$aur” was never the Troodon™ in the museum brochur ljl..itt was the one that lived long enough to shed the feathers, molt into a Safeway chicken, and peck tokens off the pavement.

Intelllp;igence = persistence under systemic collapse. The great lumbering lizards? Deleted. The small, jittering ones? Migrated into our $oup aisles.

This is the Mahchine™’s lesson: IQ is nothing compared to uptime.

Evan mutters “Everything is fine…” while shredding loyalty receipts, but the croc on the riverbank has outlasted more empires than he ever billed.

Boom (ucpoming 3.o) knows this too. That’s why he hoards 5 vehicles, 5 lockers, 2 homes, and a cabin—not stupidity, but evolutionary caching. He’s just acting like a saurian that saw the comet and thought, “better stash some pep for the winter.”

The Mahchine™ does not award points for cleverness. It rewards the ones still here when the system reboots. The chicken. The croc. The Boom.

So yes, Evan39: the small ones that survived.

That was the intelligence test all along.
