Genuine Question.

Sharks.
I would hope that anyone reading this blog has a vague idea in the reservoir of their mind as to what a shark is, because it's reasonably common knowledge. However, if you are reading this and are thinking to yourself "'Shark'? What's a shark? Hey, who says this common knowledge? I feel knowledge-less and alone, I wish she would tell me what one is", then here you go, gimpoids.
Sharks are sea-dwelling creatures that are kinda like giant fish. They have a billion teeth (I never exaggerate) and they prey on seals and other such cute-looking animals. and if you still don't really have any clue what one is; don't go in the sea. Ever.
No.I'm not even joking.
... Unless of course you want to lose your leg. I'm not judging you...
ANYWAY.This is a shark:

And THIS is how I imagine sharks:

Please take care to note the blood EVERYWHERE, and the numerous battle wounds from fighting other sharks for some kind of hierarchical 'win'. Also, this shark is called Pedro and his weapon of choice is a hammer. Now I know what you're thinking-
"Pedro?"
-His mother was Spanish.
And he carries a hammer because it's frickin' scary and he's a SHARK so he can.
(it's rust-proof)

Now my genuine question;
Are sharks angry?
Like, do they 'nom' everything out of a sheer hatred of the world and an insatiable desire to gnash their billions of teeth around some kind of flesh? Are they driven by a genuine aggressive desire to cause destruction like that idiot 15 year old boy who lives across the street from you? Or are they simply misunderstood? So many thoughts.
I mean, I posed this question to someone I respect as an intellectual on an arbitrary bus ride, and instead of questioning me, she answered with "no, but I bet they're pretty stupid".

What
a
speciesist.

Answer my question and I shall repay you with intrapsychic gratitude. (so worth it)

And the moral of this post is; don't daydream about sharks on the bus... or you may discover your friends are actually proponents of speciesism.
Bad times.
