This Has To Be A Joke
Is this a real story? Stingray jumps into boat and stabs dude in chest? Are stingrays out to get us? The most ridiculous part of the article, though, is this:
Ellen Pikitch, a professor of marine biology and fisheries at the University of Miami, who has been studying stingrays for decades, said the fish are generally docile creatures.
"Something like this is really, really extraordinarily rare," she said. "I've never heard any reports of a stingray attacking a person. Even when they are under duress, they don't usually attack."
Ms. Pikitch also claimed that it's rare for planes to be hijacked, even more rare for them to be flown into buildings, and in all her years of field work, has never seen any building collapse due to any kind of terror attack. Ever. She thought really hard before answering, too.

Haha. A good comment to break this nearly 24-hour scoreless streak for ARSFIPT. Arse-fipped. I think that might mean something in England.
