We can call fish-spirits from the vasty ocean.
And now, we can give them a way to come when we call them.

Also: looking forward to this showing up in a future Jaws reboot.

The Stingray up ahead was all over the road. He was driving while fried. I can smell a reefer from a block away. Tried to put up a struggle too so I hauled him in for ‘salt and batter’.

I thought the question would be, “SHOULD goldfish drive cars?” not “CAN they?” We hominids can also likely train mice, cockroaches, and 6502-chip-bots to drive, but why? What’s the gain for us?

Roaches borrow nothing. They only take, take, take. Say sayonara to the car keys. And to your kids hiding in the back seat.
