When My Sister Was In 2nd Grade, Her English Teacher Told Their Class That A Blue Whale Is Called So
When my sister was in 2nd grade, her English teacher told their class that a blue whale is called so because they have blue blood (also implied that the only kind of whale that exists is blue whale so all whales have blue blood) . As my sister revelled in her newfound knowledge, I called out the bullshit but she chose to believe her teacher.
Showed her pictures of blood bathed sea shores of the annual whale hunting festivals of Europe and a video of exploding whale. The horror on her face was hilarious.
She never doubted me again.

It was like eating a dried up citrus, or a non- juicy but succulent worm. The very first bite me me so uncomfortable. Horrifying.
Was no one gonna tell me that buttermilk and Curd is different in western countries?
