    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’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.

      It’s from The Good Place. She isn’t a person, and she isn’t a computer either.

      “And to Janet! The best robot,”

      “Not a robot.”

      “Girl,”

      “Not a girl.”

      “And straight up hottie!”

      “I am attractive, yes.”

    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.
