    If people were Chihuahuas, coyotes would be 25-feet-tall… now that’s something to ponder.

      I have done some pondering:

      If people were chihuahuas, wouldn’t they be the size of a chihuahua - seeing they ARE chihuahuas? Same thing if people were the size of chihuahuas. Coyotes might be 25 feet tall in comparison, if we scaled down feet to… well, paws. To be honest, the only close scenario I can envision where we’re talking about 25 feet of coyote would be if all canines were enlarged to the point where chihuahuas were the size of humans.

      And at that point I’d even worry about the chihuahua!

          They already had the ferocity, now they finally have the size! If all canines were scaled up to the point where cyotes were 25 feet taller than us (humans), then how big are chihuahuas compared to us? Are we snack size? Anyone wanna math and visualize that for me or should I use AI?

            Snack, but only if they get a bunch of us at once, much like a solitary peanut isn’t very satisfying.

            For safety, we’d come to live in fortified boxes affixed to their backs, and the distances between each of these chihuahua-mounted citadels would be ever changing as a result.
