From the perspective of phylogenetics, if you believe that all trout species and all shark species should be called "fish", then all mammals are also fish, including you.

Hell yeah. Fuck paraphyletic groups!

What is a concept of fish (and would the fish agree to it)?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I dunno, do you agree to it?

Those very important veins in your neck are where your gills used to be.

I'm pretty sure you actually have them briefly in utero before they close up once the umbilical chord is delivering enough oxygen.

once the umbilical chord is delivering enough oxygen.

Are you just trying to insult my mother? She has never given me any such ... stuff. Only the best beer, always!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Something between 2 and 17.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I never thought about it like that.

That's why I'm a handsomely paid consultant, and you're not.

I’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Shit, I didn't know you liked to get wet. But I understand the fish thing now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The part that always puzzled me was.....why is only ONE of the number 45s with cheese, if they're all for him?

I don’t believe in fish. They‘re just actors hired by the government. Wake up, sheeple!

You're asking me to train someone else how to make an entire species extinct? For what purpose???

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

To see if it will impact the trout populations most likely

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

No like how to defeat the concept of fish. Think of a fish, and then think about how to think about defeating that thought. You have to defeat the concept of the thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

defeating that thought

Now it gets real fishy. You're making progress!
