how do you get all the way through marine biology college or whatever and not realize the “sharks are smooth” guy is doing a bit
More you might like
it’s because he isn’t doing a bit sharks are just smooth
Because the perpetually snobby college kids who think they’re smarter than the average “peon” assume that everyone is so below them that if you keep pretending you’re right and smarter than them even if it’s obvious you’re messing with them they won’t ever back down until they PROVE how smart they are
Or maybe it’s not that fucking deep and these people just see someone spreading false information and they want to correct it because that’s what you fucking do if you care about the stability of society and no I don’t care that what texture shark skin is doesn’t matter to almost anyone’s day-to-day life it’s the PRINCIPLE of the thing goddammit you don’t just fucking go around telling lies you just DON’T and if you say something wrong and someone corrects you you just ACCEPT it you don’t fucking make it into a whole fucking THING like an ASSHOLE where you get thousands of people to root for you for repeatedly insisting on something that’s just plain fucking false what the fuck is WRONG with you people why do you hate truth so much I’m fucking sick of it
Youre right, sharks are smooth guy is right and he was trying to help all the people spreading misinformation know the truth.
It’s been a while since we checked in on how the Renaissance is doing with its ocean mysteries, so here is a marine biology update circa 1550.
Seals come in two forms:
Buff

& Triangular

Walruses are horrifying

But whales are worse


Fish can have human faces

but not always where you’d expect

As for the rest






… it’s probably better left alone.

Can you imagine thinking animals actually looked like this? Like I know there’s stylization here, but if I was an uneducated peasant in 1550 who saw these I might be religious too.
you get a virus from a marine biology website and it replaces all the text in the documents on your computer with this

the best part is that they chose sharks, which in cartoon culture are to lawyers as “pigs” are to cops
k so i made this new russian friend at school this week and we were talking about memes, you know, as one does, and she was telling me about this underground russian meme where its pics of fish reading and saying shit like “i cant do this” and i thought it was the funniest fucking thing ive ever seen in my life so here u go. in order, theyre saying “help”, “disaster”, “pretty difficult”, and “it’s hard for me”
🌊🏊Sharks are nice!🏄
Since its summertime and people are gonna be hitting the beach to swim and/or surf, i decided to make this informative shark post.
In the media sharks are portrayed as mean bloodthirsty and vicious creatures. Such as in movies like “The Shallows” and “Jaws”. But are sharks really that vicious? The answer is no. No they are not. Sharks are really nice and sweet creatures. I am a surfer and have been bitten a couple of times by sharks but i still know the truth… sharks aren’t evil creatures.
You may be thinking “but you’ve been bitten by one! How can they not be evil!?” Well the answer to that my bro
is simple, its all a misunderstanding. You see, sharks dont have great eyesight. They are blind as fuck. So they rely on other senses to find food. They see the silhouette of us surfers on our boards and they see it from a below angle and they think we kind look like seals, their favourite meal (as seen in the pics above). So they take just a nibble to see what the fuck we are. Once they realize we aint a seal, they go away. Why? Sharks HATE the taste of human meat. We disgusting af to them. Thats why the majority of shark attacks are just sharks bitting once and then leaving. They just wanted to know what the fuck we are bro. Its a case of mistaken identity. A misunderstanding. Have there been shark attacks where the shark bites more than once? Yeah. But thats rare and it only happens if the shark is either
(1) feeling threatened or provoked.
Or
(2) very hungry. Like, i mean STARVING.
Sharks just wanna eat but they dont wanna eat us. Its just a simple misunderstanding. As you can see in the photos above, people can swim with sharks and nothing happens. Its totally fine my dudes. So there you have it, sharks are homies, not hostile.

MORE INFO:
The likelihood of being attacked by a shark is thought to be 1 in 11.5 million, and only 4 or 5 people in the entire world die each year from shark attacks.[1].

Giant isopods are so cool but what’s with the sexy funk music
most sexual motherfucker in the ocean.
Sharks have been discovered to be living in the acidic waters of an active volcano. “
The sharks were observed with the use of disposable robots, underwater cameras, and National Geographic’s deep-sea Drop Cam—divers who have tried to go near to the crater when it is not erupting have suffered acid burns, or backed away simply because of the heat. But in this inhospitable environment, there are numbers of hammerhead and silkly sharks, hanging around and going about their business.”
