I was today years old when I learned they aren’t jellyfish… Well, guess I am one of the lucky 10k
To anyone else that only now learned that: they are actually quite interesting, and colonial organisms of a group called Siphonophorae.
I’ve never even heard of this animal in the first place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_man_o’_war
This image is great.
I’m 99% sure that’s a picture of a blue bottle, not sure what a man o war is.
Edit: Well today I learned that what we call “bluebottles” in Aotearoa and Australia is called “Man of War” in the US.
What a hilarious name to give it. Granted ‘Man-o-war’ is also very funny for a thing that mostly just floats around and stings you if you swim into it.
Named after a ship class that would make you scared if you saw it on the horizon

Shouldn’t it be “we are attractive, yes”.
What is the original dialogue?
It’s from The Good Place. She isn’t a person, and she isn’t a computer either.
Thanks!
“And to Janet! The best robot,”
“Not a robot.”
“Girl,”
“Not a girl.”
“And straight up hottie!”
“I am attractive, yes.”
Thanks! :)
They hurt like a bitch too. Swam across one while snorkeling in Florida a few months ago. Had a couple tentacles wrapped around my arm. Not fun. And flared up again 2 weeks later. Also not fun.
What are ya doin in my waters
That’s very speciesist of you to refer to a Hanar that way >:(
This one is unworthy!
