That's a beluga whale, actually.

"Sentience is the ability to feel, perceive or be conscious, or to have subjective experiences."
I sure hope so.

Now someone has to post the picture of how ducks are wearing dog masks or whatever it was.
A long time ago I posted something about some post reminding me of Mickey Mouse transforming into a lizard. I found the comic!

Technically the term 'Dolphin' belongs to a fish, but what I'm referring to is the slang, porpoises/whales.

They have a complex language (which we are just starting to decypher) and call eachother by specific names. There was also a Dolphin a few years ago that raped a bunch of divers, they suspected it was molested by a Human before so it looks at us for sexual gratification.

Why did i laugh at this

Pretty sure most things that are alive, are sentient.

But dolphins, whales, and porpoises aren't fish, they're mammals.
A fish is a fish.
[QUOTE=Clunj;31530319]Pretty sure most things that are alive, are sentient.[/QUOTE]
No, they are not. Even dogs are highly unlikely to be sentient.

Whales and porpoises are mammals, yes, but [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahi-mahi]Dolphins[/url] are not. It's a slang. I never said Whales and porpoises are fish either.

I am honestly curious as to what kind of fish that isn't a dolphin is referred to as a dolphin. I've never heard of that.
[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolphin]This is a dolphin, afaik.[/url]
Not to knock the thread even more off-topic, I'm honestly interested.

Those are Porpoises, they received the nickname 'Dolphin' (for whatever reason) and people don't realize it originally came from the Mahi-mahi. Hang on, let me get the reason, I have a book about it right next to me.
Wikipedia agrees with me:

Porpoises received the nickname Dolphin because they're from the Delphinidae family, which the Mahi-Mahi is not a member of. They're related to a pompano dolphinfish but that's not in the Delphinidae family either.
That's weird.
Anyways, carry on with LMAO pics n shit, I was just confused.
