    i thought only some jellyfish live forever?

    correct, actually

    it's the hydra genus

    essentially, hydra don't really age

    eventually, they revert to an infant stage and are reborn

    a single hydra, barring disease or injury, is effectively immortal

    Again, re-enforcing the notion of them being demons of the deep.

    You know if a shark comes swimming around you, yeah there is a chance it will eat you. But the number of shark attacks versus shark encounters shows it's not exactly a done deal.

    Now if a jellyfish comes at you while you are swimming. You. Are. Fucked.

    a dude from the temple i go to, he's from cape erimo in japan

    they've got sharks that come by periodically through-out the year

    big fucking sharks

    who have never attacked a person in the recorded history of people living in that area.

    he's like "if they swim up to you, you just shove em away or bop them on the nose"

    D:

    and then he's like "what you really gotta watch for is jellyfish, as they will kill you. you will get stung, your legs will cramp up, and you'll drown. they kill a few people now and again, it gets in the news when it happens"

    Because Jellyfish don't discriminate. Everything is on the table when it comes to them. They just float and kill.

    sharks have cognitive thinking going on. Should I eat this surfer? Yes or no.

    With Jellyfish it is always yes.

    I think Scarab has suffered the indignity of someone peeing on him. I also think a jellyfish may have stung him once, possibly on a trip to Wales.

    what about those little itty bitty jellyfish that have a sting so intense that barely brushing one at all with exposed skin will send you into the most intense burning pain you can imagine for three days straight if it doesn't outright kill you and not even morphine will cut through the agony

    that's pretty metal I guess

    apparently peeing on a person doesn't do anything for jellyfish stings

    trank: what is crazier is that the pain probably wont kill you; the mortality rate for those jellyfish is very low

    there was a quote by someone who got stung by one that was something like 'i didn't know a person could feel that much pain and not die'

    Yeah but they don't know if they stung you or not. They just aimlessly drift about, but a shark knows you are from 6 miles away and is toying with you just for shits and giggles.

    Something with the word jelly in its name ain't got shit on a shark.

    And peeing on someone who was stung by a jelly fish may not help, but it sure makes for a good story.

    I think Scarab has suffered the indignity of someone peeing on him. I also think a jellyfish may have stung him once, possibly on a trip to Wales.

    Visited llandudno once and saw a huge jellyfish on the beach. we spent the next forty five fucking minutes throwing rocks at it until it was literally a pulpy mush staining the sand.


    This was, granted, about 15-16 years ago but still, doing our part.

    Fuck jellyfish. never been stung though. but they just float there, like a land mine or something completely sectioning off areas of the sea. even the shitty tiny ones. then you get this:
