> Apparently we are all fish. Or fish don't exist

Apparently if you go even further back and apply the same logic, we are all fungi. In fact, we both can synthesize vitamin D from sunlight, although I'm not sure if we do it the same way or use it for the same purpose.

Fungi and Animalia split from Eukarya. Fungi didn't exist before then.

I realize "we are all eukaryotes" doesn't have the same punch...

		> Fungi and Animalia split from Eukarya. Fungi didn't exist before then. Plants are also Eukaryotes but Fungi and Animalia have a more recent common ancestor than either has with Plantae. We and fungi are both Opisthokonts, a distinct subclade of Eukaryotes, but plants are not. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opisthokont
