Happy new year, people!

Humpback whales: Astonishing pictures of feeding frenzy … taken from a kayak | Mail Online.

I just came across this crazy-ass article with pictures of a humpback whale feeding frenzy taken from way up close by some guy on a kayak. Now, I’m all in favor of feeding frenzies, especially when it involves me and some Korean BBQ (or Dungeness crab), but in very few of my feedings do I fear for my life.  The most frightening possibilities, in my opinion, are:

1. Being plowed over by a whale.

2. Being overcome by whale breath.

3. Being permanently deafened by whale “song”.

As you might know, whale song is not really song, but can be more accurately described as “HOLY CRAP WHAT IS THAT NOISE I THINK I’M GOING DEAF”.

Be sure to read the head-scratching comments about humpback whales being animals or mammals (or something like that) and enlighten me if you know what the heck they’re talking about.
