oysters

This image is forefront on Imgur presently, originally uploaded to Reddit by NoSpicyFood.  On Imgur the photo is tagged 'mildly interesting' but I find it more interesting than that.

The water is the same in both tanks. The oysters cleared the water within an hour and a half.

Looking for the videos one said "before the Chesapeake Bay oysters were decimated."

Meaning nearly totally destroyed.

That makes two times this week I heard 'decimated,' weakened by 1/10, to stand for wiped out, eradicated.

Then I thought, Oysters are sexed up egg and sperm machines. They release clouds and clouds and clouds of the stuff. Given that, a couple of oysters could repopulate the whole bay. What's the problem?

Want to hear something gross?

Okay, goes like this:

There I was minding my own biz wax eating a plate full of oysters Rockefeller and the next day somebody sexed me up and I shot the biggest wad of my life up to then. I was ecstatic of course and then thought, man, oysters are the way to go for impressive load improvement. I was convinced it was the oysters wot did it.

That evolutionary psychology guy used oysters as an example of indiscriminate insemination, if not reproductive strategies, per se.

Apparently, it is internal insemination that is the efficient cause of rape. Internal insemination had to evolve. Bacteria rape one another not.

Sexual selection has something to do with it, too, as opposed to individual selection, group selection, yadda-yadda selection.

I'm not so very sure I grasp the concept.

That evolutionary psychology guy also said that rapists -- and husbands who are reunited with their wives -- dump inordinate loads of spunk. They also pound harder, the head of the penis acting like squeegee to remove all the other spunk left in there from all those other guys who last filled her up.

Sperm competition, apparently.

And I'm all, like: "You have got to be kidding me!!! How the fuck do they know that?! I thought this was supposed to be science!"

And then I thought about it a bit more. And I'm all, like: "Well, yeah, every time I rape a woman it's like semen city . . . and there ain't NOBODY else's spooge left in there when I pull out and it comes time to wipe my dick off on her curtains.

So, yeah. Science.
