Don't knock finding nemo," Xavier teased, taking the DVD from my grasp. "It's a modern classic."
"Is it seriously about fish?"
"Yeah, but really cool fish.

An indisputable event, my gallant Ned. Accordingly, people have proposed naming this devil fish Bouguer's Squid.
And how long was it? the Canadian asked. Didn't it measure about six metres? said Conseil, who was stationed at the window and examining anew the crevices in the cliff.
Precisely, I replied
Wasn't its head, Conseil went on, crowned by eight tentacles that quivered in the water like a nest of snakes?
Precisely.
Weren't its eyes prominently placed and considerably enlarged?
Yes, Conseil.
And wasn't its mouth a real parrot's beak but of fearsome size?
Correct, Conseil.
Well, with all due respect to master, Conseil replied serenely, if this isn't Bouguers Squid, it's at least one of his close relatives!

The most prominent word on the page was Bathyscaphe. “Get it?” the guy said. “A submarine,” Chang said. “Capable of going all the way to the ocean bed.” “Originally I called it Nemo. After the guy in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea. He commands a submarine named Nautilus. I liked him because nemo is Latin for nobody. Which seemed appropriate. But then they made a movie about a fish. Which ruined it.” He typed another command, and a search box came up. He said, “OK, start your engines. Thirty-two seconds is the wager.

Finding Nemo," Gavin mumbled. We watched the movie in silence for a few minutes and I felt like a kid again as I enjoyed the happenings on the screen. It had been a long while since I watched a cartoon. "Holy shit, did they just kill off that fish's wife?" I blurted in shock. "Yep," Gavin replied. "That big, mean fish ated her." He said it so calmly - like it was no big deal that a sweet, loving cartoon fish just got murdered. What the fuck was wrong with this movie? This couldn't be appropriate for kids. I didn't think it was appropriate for me.

I want to see mermaids, too.”
“Some would say they are scarier than the megalodon,” I tell her.
“So they are real?” she breathes.
I shrug, smirking when her breath fogs the glass. “Not impossible.”
“So fucking cool,” he mutters before getting distracted by a clown fish and scrambling over to the other side of the building where it swims.
“It’s Nemo!” she screeches excitedly.

Finding Nemo
“
Instead, they were the culmination of a million small moments—the way Jules tried to distract me with her fish propaganda declaration during Finding Nemo, her quiet sympathy when I told her about my patient’s death, the way she tasted and fit against me like she was the last piece in the jigsaw puzzle of my life.

The first time I watched ‘Finding Nemo’, I locked my little dog in the house with a fish!
Then I forced him to play hide and seek; I told him he’d get his bone if he could find the key!
It didn’t go too well as you can imagine, but luckily my dog doesn’t have a sharp wisdom tooth!

Here’s another example, unrelated to cannibalism. The reef-inhabiting bluehead wrasse (Thalassoma bifasciatum) is famous for its habit of removing parasites from much larger fish, even entering into their mouths. In this case, however, it’s the removal of a male wrasse from its harem of 30 to 50 females that alters their local environment. Rather than waiting for a new male to arrive, something extraordinary takes place in the harem. Within minutes, one of the females begins exhibiting male-typical behaviors. Relatively quickly, the former female transforms into a male, a form of phenotypic plasticity known in the trade as protogyny. The opposite occurs in protandry, in which individuals begin life as males and transform into females. Examples include the clownfish (Amphiprion), whose behavior could have offered an intriguing alternative resolution to the animated film Finding Nemo.
