Looks like I'm never going swimming ever again.
[QUOTE=Lol-Nade;36685781]Do they bite women too?[/QUOTE] Probably not, as I'm guessing they mistake testicles for actual nuts.
One of my personal phobias is being in the middle of water with fish inside it while being naked, because I'm worried that a fish might come by and bite my own parts off. And suddenly, a nightmare came true.
Well it's no surprise they're here since you can get them at Petsmart and idiots don't know it's not a good idea to dump a fish in a local lake.
Never going swimming again

Yup. They evolved because one of the few food sources they have is nuts/hardshelled fruit.
So... Are these needed at all for the ecosystem or can we just kill them all before they somehow evolve into land monsters and fuck us up?

I live in Illinois and already have an irrational fear of fish. This doesn't help any.
My grandmother lives near this lake, I've been swimming in it. Welp, never doing that again.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;36685156]Would be hilarious to see it while swimming in the ocean. :buddy:[/QUOTE] that actually wouldn't be hilarious at all
And the worst part is those teeth aren't even very sharp; it would be like having your testicles crushed very quickly with several tiny bricks.

Oh fuck no! I live right next to Illinois! What if they get in my swimming pool!? :tinfoil:
[QUOTE=overpain;36689381][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDC0aoZtMGk[/media] Btw look from 2:10[/QUOTE] Maybe I am just a giant pansy, but man I feel like there must be something wrong with a person if they enjoy owning and feeding a fish like that. Even though it's just a mouse, seeing a terrified animal swimming for its life and then being ripped in half makes me feel a bit sad.
