That moment when you plan revenge on someone to send authorities to their house during an underage drinking party... and you don't have their address.

[Merman Dan]

I shouldn't have engaged, really. But someone on MERMAIDS facebook page was calling for facts and posting screencaps from the Animal Planet mocumentary, so I went science.

I had to join the fun. They didn't seem to be amused when I posted a link to a Feejee Mermaid.

If you know where it is physically you can find the address on google maps.

"I have 3 university degrees! Science isn't saying that mermaids don't exist because they are finding things all the time in the ocean"

Apparently these people with 3 degrees don't know that the moment you touch something with your bare hands you are contaminating it with your own DNA *cue the moment the "scientist" extracting the knife from the skin of the shark*

Didn't they say they found "human related" DNA in that weapon? I don't remember, I watched the thing a long time ago.

People sometimes want to relay on science so badly, but they have no idea how science works. Hence their occasionally stupid arguments.

ETA: can I have a link to the page to laugh at them?

[Mermaid Momo]

I second a link!

My gripe is that I have been sick since Saturday with a fever and bad coughing and congestion and while I got through this week next week is finals week and I'm not ready at all for it and not to mention I should be packing to move back home for the summer but I spend a lot of my time trying to sleep off whatever bug I caught. Not only that but with the semester ending, I won't have anything to do over the summer, I've been applying to jobs at home but no one wants to hire a girl who will only be there for the summer then leave.

Here
go down to Beth Podolski's post. Ironically she hasn't actually commented

[SeaGlass Siren]

im not on that page.

In theory mermaids existed. in korea. they wore seal skin and were actually pearl/clam divers supporting their families. men couldnt do it because they'd lose their breath too quickly and their bodies couldn't deal with cold temperatures.

A kid showed up at my school today with a BB gun and shot three other kids making them bleed and getting himself arrested. And considering the gang infested neighborhood my school is in, I am just glad it wasn't a real gun. I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL THIS SCHOOL YEAR IS OVER. MAKE IT COME FAST. PLEASE.

[Mermaid Jaffa]

I just read their whole fb posts... There are some very fruity humans out there!

Oh wow! That is insane! How old was the kid?

I have arrived with my second gripe within a few days. So If you follow me on instagram you probably saw this post

I really do keep the post it on my laptop and my room mate decided to take it upon herself to give me a lecture about how I'll never be able to get into the nursing program if I don't get my grades up or my GPA up. I already know this. I stress about this so much about what if I'm not able to continue with my major because I hit a rough patch but what really annoys me is that she says it like she's speaking to a child, like I'm stupid. And when I tell her that she shouldn't be judging anyone for their grades because she doesn't know the reason why their grades have been slipping or what they're going through she replied that the only reason someone would be slipping was if they were lazy and didn't care. Like excuse me, but not everyone is an entitled piece of crap that you are.

She is really getting on my nerves. All of her "Indian v. Indian " jokes ( where she tells me "hey wanna know how my sister and I tell the difference between indian and indian?" *puts pointer finger in the middle of her forhead "Indian" *puts hand behind her head like in the old westerns when you see the kids pretending to be indians "and indian WAHAHAHAHAAH" -_-) Or her jokes comparing Obama to a monkey, or whenever The news says something about the Baltimore Uprising she groans loudly.

how the hell did he get a fake gun??

[Cordelia]

@Fun123joker - from your April 20th post - I totally get that! I am lucky to not get badgered too much about it. I don't want kids of my own. I haven't since the age of 3! Occasionally I get the: you might change your mind one day! Then I politely remind them that I am in my thirties and still pretty darn sure I don't want kids. :P

[Cordelia]

@Momo My eyes! They cannot roll far enough to express my wtf. Ignore your roommate. See if you can find anyone to tutor you for finals. Maybe they'll be willing to trade skills.

Do you live in the US? It's super easy. No waiting period or anything. It's a toy by law.

Absolutely. Walk into any Walmart, they're with the toy bow and arrows and miniature fishing poles. Anybody can have a BB gun. And in Texas, anybody over 18 can walk into Walmart and buy a real gun. Only requirement? Not a felon and the state hasn't forced to you into a mental institution because for losing it and breaking the law.

This is so petty but I'm irked right now.

I was tagged in a picture with two fellow Cali mers I consider friends, and a kid commented asking what kind of tail I had (a Mertailor). One of the other mers in the picture answered before I did: "The kind you don't want."

Wow, okay. Rude.

Well, that's pretty annoying. I don't blame you for being miffed.

Rise above. You're not the rude one.

Who says something like that? And about a "friend" at that?
Some people are jerks really.

I have a feeling I know EXACTLY who said that. I remember another California mer telling me to get a tail by a different company because mine didn't look like it fit. my tail is GORGEOUS and fits perfectly, and I'm not going to spend $1,200 on a tail just to dump it and buy one waaaay more expensive
