Bad news: You're not just getting older—you're getting dumber. Yep, according to a new study published in the journal Trends in Genetics, humans have lost the smarts they once had in the days of fending off saber tooth tigers and seeking refuge in caves.

They write that while our ancestors lived and died by the ability to find food and shelter, those processes simply don't require as much brainpower in today's world. The other side: Humans have simply evolved to do tons more cool things—way better than the cavemen could have.

You drive everywhere.
You go with fries instead of a salad.
You stay cooped up in the office.
