Handy tip: Don't google 'merkin' at work.

Yep. Although I kinda like having this conversation every couple months. I agree that it really isn't about the tail at all. Strictly speaking I'm a human who loves the water, and as far as I'm concerned that makes me a merman.

Speaking of which I have a funny story from this last weekend. I went with some coworkers to a happy hour at a hotel that has a rooftop bar. The hotel also had a pool on the roof. At one point someone dared me to jump in the pool. The sun had already set but it was still warm out, so I took of my shoes and handed my phone to a friend and jumped in. Everyone was really impressed that I went swimming fully dressed, but the truth is I had wanted to hang out in the pool as soon as I saw it, but it wasn't socially acceptable to go swimming in my clothes until the dare gave me an excuse.
