Wait. You're using human beings' opinions of themselves as some kind of yardstick for 'something unusual'. Get a second opinion. Then another. When you have an adequate sampling of species with self-opinions, then you can talk about 'unusual'. This means you shouldn't restrict yourself to considering life forms you find only on this planet.
What I'm saying is that your question is an entirely vacuous opinion based on limited data.
Oh yes, the "can't define unique or special" canard. Now that's vacuous.
Probability proves you wrong.
