I, for one, welcome our nudibranch overlords. But seriously; what the hell was evolution drinking when that thing came to be?

In the traditional sense of the word?  No, he's been dissolved in magma.

Cthulhu, don't you have dominion over this sort of thing?

Not only is it not actually advertising anything, it's just copy/pasting word salads about gold, runescape, oil, yuan, and handbags.  It's like a transporter accident combined all the spambots into one shambling mass of online sales.

I found one of those washed up on the beach.
Also, a helluva lot of manowars.
That was a fun day.

Manowars are the jellyfish right? Can you domesticate them?

I doubt it, they don't really do anything except drift around and digest stuff.

DUH! Anybody could get a creature with a brain to perform tricks. It's only really impressive when you can coerce what is essentially a gelatinous plant to get the paper for you.

Actually the Portuguese Man o War isn't a Jellyfish, it's a Siphonophore; a colony of (four in this case) different kinds of minute individual creatures that clump together into a cohesive whole.

I recall that in high school the teacher said that jellyfish did have a nervous system. Of sorts.
