Fun With Arthropods

The largest arthropod known to have ever lived (in mass) was a species of sea scorpion that measured over 6 feet in length. Entirely honest, I'm not that impressed. Sure it's big and fat, but 6 feet's not THAT big. For me, I'd say go to the aquarium in Osaka where not only the have a whale shark (holy crap) but they have a tank of giant Japanese spider crabs. The giant Japanese spider crap has ridiculously long legs and an adult has a roughly 3 to4 foot body. In captivity the largest legspan recorded was in the ballpark of 7 feet, but in the wild they've been observed to grow as large as 12 feet from leg to leg. Crab. A 12 foot crab. That's alive. Right now. On Earth. See? Fuck space, there's some crazy stuff right here at home. If your home is coastal Japan. Which means you probably get to take the bullet train, eat Pepper Lunch, and watch Hayao Miyasaki movies and thus I envy you.

SIZE QUEEN.

I want to make a joke about Patrick's fuck space, but there are just too many to choose from. Instead, I'll recycle the one I just used on [livejournal.com profile] jedi_iwakura and point out that rumour has it, Gabe's fuck space does have crabs.

Patrick and Whale Sharks.


Screw Pete's political posts, if Patrick keeps posting political and random bullshit for the rest of my days I will be happy.
