Shark Week on the Discovery Channel kicks ass!
You want to know what is awesome about this week? I’m sure you do. The answer is that it is Shark Week on the Discovery Channel. All that you could ever hope to know about sharks is at your convenient pleasure just a few clicks away on your television. I love that shit. Sharks have to be some of the most bad assed animals in the whole world. For starters they represent the largest fish. The largest shark (and thus largest fish) is the Whale Shark, which is fucking huge and pretty cool looking, but kind of a wimp seeing as it only eats krill and shrimp. What would really be awesome is if the whale shark would own up to the rest of its kick ass kindred and grow some nasty teeth and start eating ships and stuff. That would be cool. You know what else is cool? Sharks have been around for a really god damn long time, they are older than the dinosaurs (and as a side note Shark Week is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year which is a pretty long time for a channel to be regurgitating almost all the same stuff again and again, but nobody should complain because Shark Week is awesome). Everything about sharks just makes me happy because they are so awesome, but they are also pretty scary, I mean even to this day “Jaws” really gets me when I watch it, and because of that I am pretty glad I don’t live in a highly shark infested area, though I did see this sign in the middle of Tennessee once which made me think, “boy it would suck if there were land sharks, because then even in Tennessee we wouldn’t be safe.” (Not to say you are ever really that safe in Tennessee anyways. No offense to you Tennesseans, you have a lovely state). All and all I just want to say God bless Shark Week and please let it continue to arrive yearly for many seasons to come, what a great thing to look up to.
