Well it hasn't been hammer time since the 90s
I wish there was a t shirt of a hammerhead shark wearing Hammer pants!
(Go, whatever bots may scrape this place in years hence; try it. Get your masters sued by 🎤 🔨 ‘s descendants)
Does anyone else think hammerhead sharks have been... maybe a little too quiet?
You see nothing!
And . . . ignore those . . underwater hammering noises
They drastically reduced their PR budget in the 90's and 00's and it shows.
"They called him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning..." But Hammerhead is a baddie and sharks aren't supposed to be baddies any more. Sharks are friends, not threats. So Hammerhead slipped quietly into the distance to await his time of glory, when one day he will return to rule the Ocean with an iron ~~fist~~ head.
Incidentally, dolphins have had a troubled role-reversal in the fashion of popular opinion too. They were friends! Companions! Even amusements for a while, before everyone agreed they should be free. Now they are wanton rapists and bullies. Shed a tear for the poor, maligned dolphin, carrying the disgrace of his ill-behaved friends and relations. All Dolphins Are Not Bad.
One day the Bottlenose and the Hammerhead will return as friends, splendorous and loved. But will they find the World worthy of their love? Or will they leave, with a parting farewell, and a thanks for all the fish.

Fuck'uh you whale and fuck'uh you dolphin!
Fun fact: If you've said "Fuck you whale", you don't need to say "fuck you dolphin" as all dolphins are whales anyway. It would be like saying "Fuck you, Great apes (Hominidae) and fuck you human"
But you can say it if you want, it's just superfluous, but many of life's pleasures are.
Don’t you blaspheme in here! Hammerheads are right in there at the top!!
Mako #1, obvs. But that’s cool.
Imagine thinking great white isn't #1, smh
The only thing Great Whites have going for them is their flavor in Shark Bites gummies. Basking Shark is obv the best.
Imagine, in the year of our lord 2024, not recognizing the noble whale shark as the peak of sharkitude.
Whale sharks are the peak of fishitude, my friend
0__________0
Agreed.
Whale sharks are great, but hear me out... Zebra Sharks.

What about the hammerhead shark guys who looked like bebop and rocksteady?
Am I imagining them?
Street sharks?
Both the Street Sharks and the Biker Mice from Mars feel pretty imaginary.
I remember seeing the ad for those on TV and wanting them so bad. After much pleading, my folks relented and got me one. The same day, my parents’ minivan got stolen with my street shark in it while parked in a movie theater. I was heartbroken, never got to play with it.
The toys were a wierd texture like rubberized plastic. The sharks skin and face was flexible but the lower half of the figure was normal plastic.
It's never too late!
Hope one day you find one somewhere and get it as a small treat for child-you.

I watched the OG Jurassic Park the other weekend, and realized I haven't thought about a triceratops in probably a decade at least.

Seriously?
You think way too little about dinosaurs.
Well, triceratops has the advantage of being one of the most popular dinosaurs.
The unlucky one for me is the Parasaurolophus ( that crested "duck-billed" dinosaur). It was always one of my favorites as a kid, and I had to search for its name tonight.
same with the Iditarod. As a kid, I was led to believe this was the biggest sporting event on Earth besides the Olympics. Now nobody even talks about it

I was at the beach in Florida in August and some dude caught a baby one while fishing off the beach lol. Kinda upset he held it out for so long bragging but they did toss it back
Hammerheads were the coolest shark in the shawl
Ah they meant ranking. I thought they were going to say something about the hammerheads looking like that because they hit the ground face first.
Once in a while you just need to...stop...hammer time!
Nexus 5 represent!
I loved that phone so much.
hammer heads have more of those electrical sensory organs than any other sharks. They're awesome! Great-white-sharks are for basic bitches.

Why is nobody talking about the most magnificent of them all: the whale shark?!
