Except that the humpback whale will reproduce long before that marine biologist loses his virginity.

Well yes, humpback whales reach sexual maturity by around 10 years of age (some much before then it seems). A marine biologist is still practically in it’s larval form at that point.

(Yes, yes, I know that wasn’t what you meant, but I couldn’t help myself)

Hmmm, let’s see:

  • Can’t even spell “can” correctly. (dumb)
  • Bad attitude towards animals. (mean spirited)
  • Paid for premium. (desperate)

Yeah, I don’t see women lining up around the block for this catch of a human being.

Unless it’s the 52Hz whale. I’d shed a tear for that lonely creature; not for that biologist though.

It’s like Wyle E Coyote finally gets an ACME rocket that’s fast enough to catch the road runner, only to go zooming by the roadrunner on an upward trajectory headed for the moon.
