Fuckthisbonyassfishicus
I can almost guarantee it that that fish was really annoying
It's not like the bony-eared assfish is going to clap back, not with the smallest brain-to-body weight ratio of all known vertebrates.
But he's going to make America great again, for sure.
No boney assfishes about it.
Stop, he's already dead 😭
Bro probably didn't even know he'd just been roasted.
Huh usually these memes are edited but this one is surprisingly real https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Bony-eared_assfish
Wikipedia seems to not be unanimous on the brain-to-body ratio claim. There's a discussion link next to the citation.
yeah mola mola seems to have it beat >10x wich makes sense since they are dumb as hell.
I thought the name had to be edited given that it looks different from the rest of the text, but on reflection it's just because it is a hyperlink.
“…assfish are soft and flabby…”
Gold
At least the Latin name is still diplomatic, as always
They roasted it because they know better than to do it raw
To be fair, not a lot going on needing a bigger brain 1+km below the water surface where this creature hangs out. Also, apparently it's ass as in donkey, not the other kind.
It is an assfish, not a gyattfish after all.
Nyashfish
Also, per wikipedia, assfish are soft and flabby.
GenX be like, "...aside from your mother"
Aside from your mother
i mean yeah why else would they call him the assfish :(
Where's the ass?
