This thread is where we can all talk about aardvarks.

I'm sure there's a lot to say on the topic, so let's get started!

They won't have aardvarks in the future.

Aardvarks will slowly become extinct, but the Radio Shack Corporation will make solar powered robot aardvarks so realistic that 3/4 people won't know the difference!

Hell yeah, aardvarks are the bomb! Plus, the word 'aardvark' is the only word that I know with a double A that's not in Dutch. In fact, Dutch used to even have triple vowels. Maybe aardvarks all came from Holland? Who can truly say? Not me, I'm no aardvark biologist or anthropologist or anything like that.

Clearly, an aardvark anthropologist would be an aanthropologist.

And would be named Aaron.

Word roots: Obsolete Afrikaans : aarde, earth (from Middle Dutch aerde.) + vark, pig

Anyway, I think there should be stories involving Aaron the Aardvark and Lloyd the Llama. Surely this has been done.

That's crazy! Are you sure?
