Happy World Jellyfish Day!

[Gman]

You know things have gone too far when....

On World Jellyfish Day, donate to Oceana to support healthy oceans (https://msn.benevity.org/community/fundraiser/244)

This bullshit of making dates official for XYZ interests has turned me against whatever it is 'they' are promoting.

Why? It's just part of the dance.

I didn't click the link, but I have to assume there are too many jellyfish and we are encouraged to eat or kill more of them to support a more balanced ecosystem. I like sushi, but I don't think I've ever seen jellyfish on the menu. Hmm. Well, I guess I'll just kill all of them I see at the beach instead. Some do sting after all.

Years ago, the marine biologists renamed "jellyfish" to "jellies" because the name was a misnomer - they weren't fish.

"Starfish" were renamed to "sea stars" too.

A group of jellies is called a "smack".

Your factoids of the day brought to you from an ex-docent and diver at Ocean Journey [now the Downtown Aquarium].

Ps. I'm kinda surprised that NOAA is still calling them jellyfish.

Peanut butter and jellyfish?

[brutal]

Who's idea was it to make national sandwich day a date that can fall on a Sunday?
