That thing scares me. What is it, a sea lion? It's scary.








*shiver*

AWESOME TRIBUTE TO ME!! Even if you didn't mean it to be.

That...somehow made me smile.

It's an elephant seal. :P (Works at the Aquarium)

... You mean it's not a statue?

...I don't think so. o.o

... Oh. ... Oh dear. :/

It looks like a big rock. :/

N-no. I don't believe so. o.o It's an Elephant Seal. They do exist. They're huge... and they eat fish.

And all those creases are wrinkles. It's apparently well-fed. o.o

Well, in that case, I want to hug it. :)

... How big is that seal-thing, anyway?

1800-2700 kilos. o.o

4.5 meters long. o.o

Sure you want to hug it?

Does it eat people? Otherwise, sure! ^_^

It can smash you without trying, but it's a fish eater. o.o

You know these guys literally slash each other open with their teeth, right?

Hopefully he'd like me, though. Because I like him. :)

*huggles seal*

If you say so. o.o

I like harbor seals. They're colored like cookies 'n cream. xD

Everytime I see a huge animal... I think Sara would say "I wanna hug it" or "HUGGELZ!"... or something like that...

*Steals bucket*

That thing honestly scares the shit out of me.

That's hilarious.

Is it actually full-grown though? It doesn't seem to have that proboscis-snout thingy the biggest ones have? I can't tell for sure...Maybe it's a lady seal?

But jeje elephant seals are crazy mean IIRC.

My favorites are the bearded seals though. Seal pups, though, are just another example of absurdly cute baby animals.

But the females have a much darker coat... but yeah, it does lack the proboscis. :/ Maybe it's neutered? *shrugs*

xD!!! Mad love for those seals. <3

Bearded seals are so fuzzy, and harp seal pups are so cute! <3 Weddels are awesome, too, and the quickest-weaned animals in the world, I think. :/

Strike officially loves this topic now. THAT FIRST PIC IS AWESOME, NO JOKE. BUCKETTTTTTTT!!!!!

XD

Go Bucket! Thos seal pups are awesomely cute. I actually said AWWWWWWWWWWWW when I saw it. No joke.

Reminds me of someone I know, but with a donut instead of a bucket...Same size specimen, only human :P

On the topic of seal pups:

I like leopard seals because they KILL PENGUINS.

You SO didn't just do that! -_-

No one clubs seals anymore. It's inhumane. :/

Damn Canada! *shakes fist* It's not nearly racist enough for a white-majority British Empire state!

I'm from Canada.

Only the crazy Eskimos and Canadian Rednecks do it.

Mabye a few Newfies when they're not fishing.

Never, ever say that AGAIN. I swear, if anyone else uses anymore stereotypes of us, I'm going to crack.

O.K.

But your stereotypes were even in Disney World. Theres this O Canada! exhibet, and it said all Newfies fish. Even other Canadians stereotype you guys.

Stereotypes are used because one is too ignorant. If they actually came here, they'd know the difference. Do I seem like a fisherwoman to you?

yes no

Hehehe... Oh!... Sara gave me an idea... I should make a club called seels just to see the ARA (animal rights agency) yell at me...

Stereotypes aren't ignorant. I see a black man I just give him my oney and spare the gunshot wound. I see a mexican I give him a penny and a shovel and tell him to dig. I see an asian and I yell at him to stay away from my dog. It's just common sense.

...Woow. You told the black guy to stay away from your dog, last time I recall. xD I was nice to Wolfgang. :P

That's his name, right? I know he's named after Mozart. :/

Yeah. Pretentious midget ass dog.

Lol Newfoundlanders fish so much that there are no more cod

You're getting a wee bit out of hand. Cut it out. This is the topics only verbal warning.

Sweetie, there are barely anymore fishermen here. A whole bunch of European countries come over illegally to fish, and they take all of it. That's why we're poor now. :)

Well, stereotypes are based on ignorance, here. We don't really have that many racial differences in our school; there's only one black guy and... a handful of Asians. I don't consider myself prejudiced race-wise, but that's only because I have you guys to set me straight. :P

We call those "sjölejon" in swedish. Sea lion.

Blame the norwegians. Filthy capitalists. <_<

There aren't any more fisherman because you fished all the Cod. At least it taught everyone else to not fish all the cod.


On a side note Sara, is there such a thing as a Newfoundland independence group? Who want it as a separate state again?

We did not! How could we overfish if there aren't any fishermen? Don't assume things you have no clue about! -_-

Not that I know of. There's one in Quebec, but I think we're pretty content on staying put, even if our resources are being sucked out and we're poor. :/
