Fish

[calumdown]

not that i'm usually much of a grammarwanker,
but might i add my opinion on the definition of fish,
because some people are mentioning all sorts of sea creatures.

a fish is a fish.

a lobster is not a fish,
nor is a crab or a shrimp or a mollusc or et cetara.

they are animals that live in the sea.
they are not fish.

Not necessarily.

They all taste of the sea, though, don't they? Went for a meal a few weeks ago and ordered the seafood pasta dish. Squid, shrimp, mussels....it all taste exactly the same!

What does a et cetara taste like I’ve never even seen one

My favourite is Brian who is a Bristle Nose Pleco. Strange thread though tbh.

Was gonna say I can't stand fish. But then I eat two tuna butties a day at work. In fact, I usually use tuna butties as a countdown. So as I eat 10 tuna butties a week, its 150 tuna butties until Christmas

mate,
there's only two.
did you mean two salmon three days ago,
or are you just rubbish at arithmetic?

The third one was five times the size of the other two but it got away.

Gave up fish the same time as meat in the mid eighties . Ate lots of fish fingers as a kid when i was oblivious to what eating it means. Fresh fish smell makes me gag, you could torture me with it and i would tell you everything in a second ! Lol
