"McBride is so full of $#!+ it's a little bit scary to imagine that we all share tremendous common genetic heritage with him."


Not necessarily, could just be a case of convergent evolution. McBride could turn out to be more closely related to the wombat or duck billed platypus even...

I don't know, I'm thinking we may look to look outside of Mammal class, like the reptiles, or maybe the Insects.

Well, technically the wombat is a marsupial and the platypus is a monotreme, not sure if they're considered subsets of mammal or not. And, to stay on topic, McBride seems to be highly evolved slime :)

Yes, they are both subclasses of mammals.
