Gently hands you these so w can watch together.

HORSESHOE CRAB BOIS!

I love these guys. It's so crazy you can just walk out on a random beach and see a bunch of heckin' 480 million year old living fossil dudes just sitting there, minding their own business. It's bonkers. Physiological evolution is for chumps. (also they unlocked a rare unique blood perk so that's cool).

It's also a case of the English word for something being very underwhelming. 'Horseshoe crab', really? This thing that doesn't even look like a crab and is one of the very few things left on this earth that is not (yet) carcinized? That only in the most abstract way possible actually resembles a horseshoe? All the alternate names for them are also just "thing crab".

I dunno, they're just so weird and unique that it just seems wrong to name them after other things. I would like to call them Blomblers™ instead.
