I love them so much because they’re about as sharp as a baseball and their anatomy is ridiculous to the point of them literally being classified as plankton for years because they just sort of get blown around by the ocean and look confused, but because they lay more eggs than ANY OTHER VERTEBRATE IN EXISTENCE, evolution can’t stop them
Why is no big predator coming and gnawing on them?
Their biggest defense is that they’re massive and have super tough skin, but they do get hunted by sharks or sea lions sometimes and they just sort of float there like ‘oh bother’ as it happens
Even funnier, because they eat nothing but jellyfish they’re really low in nutritional value anyway, so they basically survive by being not worth eating because they’re like a big floating rice cracker wrapped in leather.
So basically the only reason natural selection hasn’t taken care if them is because they are the most useless fish
yes, they’ve perfected uselessness to the point of being unstoppable
The problem is that no matter how hard I try I can’t give up on you, I just can’t. And believe me, I’ve tried.
I’ve tried acting like I am interested in other guys, I’ve tried flirting, I’ve tried it all. But in the end, I’m just comparing them all to you, seeing which one is the closest to everything I love about you. And none of them are good enough in those ways.
I still think of you everytime I hear certain songs, or words, or phrases, or do something I used to do with you.
I still keep a memory box of all those poems I wrote about you, all the love letters I wrote but never gave you, every doodle I made with you in mind, everything you’ve given me and everything that reminds me of you is in that box. And I still drag that box out every once in a while and reminisce on all those good, magical times. I get lost in them, and I feel like I am about to cry, but I can’t, I’ve cried to much over you.
Why? Because I still love you, and no matter how hard I try, that’s not changing, and it honestly drives me crazy because I don’t know if you feel the same.
