I don’t get it. At no other time in our lives do we care about sharks as much as we do during Shark Week. (I say we loosely, I am personally not really a fan) I dunno, I just don’t get it.
About twice a year the Discovery Channel, and Animal Planet air “Shark Week” and I am forced to listen to just about everybody, except for secret shark haters like myself, talk about all these fascinating things they’ve learned about sharks over the last few days as though I also want to be a shark (because I think those people secretly want to be sharks).
Quite frankly though, I’m sick of it. I think that the people who are avid shark lovers twice a year should have to have badges that they put on during shark week to let others know it is appropriate to talk to them about sharks. If you attempt to talk to someone about sharks who does NOT have on the shark lover badge? Get ready for serious public humiliation or physical pain. Not really sure exactly HOW either of those would take place, but they will. Believe you me.
Thanks for your time,
