WTF is Going on? 3rd edition

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, there was Jaws 2. So perhaps you considered moving as far away from fish as possible, like the Sahara desert. Bad news, fellow fish-haters.

NBC reports that the sandfish, a small critter that lives in the Sahara desert, is able to swim through the sand by undulating it's body.

Hehe, undulating bodies.

Now the sandfish is not technically a fish, but a small lizard about four inches long. Yeah right. The vampire fish isn't technically a vampire, but it will still try to bite your neck and suck the essence from your body.

Darwin needs to be stopped. Fish belong in the water, camels belong in the sand, and cows belong on my plate. Evolution is out of control! WTF?

WTF is Going on? 2nd edition

I was surfing the intarwebz when I noticed an advertisement on the side of my page that dripped of wtf-iness. A picture of what I could only describe as a vampire fish caused me to turn my gaze faster than Perez Hilton's face after connecting with a crazed roadie's fist.

Turns out, the fish is actually called a "vampire fish", and is featured on National Geographic's new show Hooked.
.
Vampirism has become particularly fashionable after the recent popularity of Twilight and HBO's True Blood, among others. But now there is officially no safe place to hide from vampires. On land, Dracula; in the air, vampire bats; now in the water, vampire fish!
.
I realize this is the second post in a row dealing with scary fish. I think the main idea that I want to convey is that a war between man and fish is coming. And with 70% of Earth covered in water, which is bound to increase with global warming, we are at a disadvantage.

The age of fish is coming if we don't act soon. In the prophetic words from the musical Hair, "This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius".
