    Fun fact: Orcas are absolute dicks. They are one of a very small list of animals that will kill for fun and not food. They are the top of the list and most heavily documented exhibiting this behavior.

      If Orcas are absolute dicks then what does that make humans?

        One of the few species that can conceptualize what being a dick is?

    IIRC it is a big deal because the orcas have taken to driving out the native South African population of great whites, which isn’t normal. (insert clever apartheid joke here)
