More than 6 billion people on this planet. How many of those whales do you figure there are.

I know they need air. All i said was that i just find it funny.
kinda like I know apples come in green and red, but i can say i find it funny to see green apples.

Whale meat sashimi is actually quite delicious. I have it whenever I go to Japan. I don't like dolphin meat though...very gamey.

ugh. still... driving a car and hitting a bird or raccoon and having it stuck in the front of your ride is one thing, but this

when did I say that humans did not take precedence over whales? I'm not saying that the fucking cruise ship should have done something to risk humans or anything like that. Just because humans are more important doesn't make the death of another living being laughable or insignificant. after all what kind of world would we be living in without such amazing creatures around us? dumbfuck

whale had it coming, you can spot a cruise ship from a mile away...
Lol this isn't what i had in mind when i read the thread title BTW,
I thought it was like one of those alaska-vancouver cruises where all u do is look out the windows and spot some whales, sea lions, etc. and the cruise owns a whale and keeps it and lets it out when ppl are bored... I have a huge imagination...

Physical humour is still humour. People laughed at the Three Stooges and Marx Brothers; we'll laugh at a whale getting hit by a boat too.
