Reality Check by Dave Whamond for August 07, 2022

They came for that very porpoise.

Surely, it’s the mice?

Dolphins are not so smart they eat and swim in the same water they P oo p in

“So long and thanks for all the fish”

I can’t believe it wasn’t the cats!

Best line ever in a sci-fi movie: “If you could travel to anyplace in the universe, would you come to THIS looney bin?”

Dolphins and porpoises may be the most intelligent. But humans are the more influential (though it’s not always or necessarily in a good way).

The only thing that’s missing is that guy’s MAGA hat.

Must be similar sonar tones they made them gravitate to each other…

A voice from the UFO cried…To your smartest we’ll give a free ride…Several men volunteered…But the ship disappeared…With a whale and two dolphin inside.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

It’s probably the octopus.

Then go ahead, take him back with ya! And when you get tired of that weird fish smell, come back and we’ll talk.

There is more truth to this than humans want to admit.

“So long, and thanks for all the fish.”

Don’t flipper out over this.

Dolphins are one of 4 species on this planet that have recreational sex.

Well, if it weren’t for religion holding us back, we would have visited your planet by now. Galileo, for example. And then there was the Spanish Inquisition….

Porpoise comes from the Old French for “pig-fish” …!

How do we know this hasn’t already happened?

I think that i read someplace that it’s the Orca that is the smartest of the porpoises.

But please take that with a few grains of salt. :)

Quiz: Which fish has the largest brain to body weight ratio. And for extra credit name the next largest. Hint: The first is found in Africa and the second in South America.

I guess the opposable thumb thing makes up for less brain cells.

“It is an important and popular fact that things are not always whatthey seem. For instance – on the planet Earth Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much . . . the wheel, New York, wars and and so on, whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely the dolphins believed themselves to be more intelligent than man for precisely the same reasons.” —HHGTTG, Douglas Adams
