I can't remember which one exactly had that story about the black blob in the water but that scared me enough to not want to go into any ponds/bodies of water.
Yeah, Jaws was never a suspense movie that held up over time. If you saw it at the time, it was the first big blockbuster movie (I think) and certainly the first shark one, so it was a big deal. As more and more came onstream, it lost its impact. But it's still the original and so the king. The big moment in the movie is I think where you see the shark fully for the first time. There's no music, nothing to alert you, comes right out of the blue. Go clean out your underwear. It's that much of a shock. But only the once.

Once when I was a kid I went snorkeling in the Florida keys. You could see really deep into the ocean and there were all kinds of fish. Our guide told us they saw sharks all the time but they never bother people. I thought I saw some sharks but I'm not sure if there were really sharks or just my kid imagination. It wasn't scary and I saw a lot of fish.

Another time a guy fishing on the pier supposedly snagged a hammerhead. Everyone was talking about it but I never saw it. I've seen some gators though. I saw gray whales up close off the Oregon coast. Instead of thinking how beautiful they were I was thinking goddamn if one of those couldn't tip this little ass boat over.

Yeah but were the whales doing drugs?

My least favourite shark. I mean, seriously, if there is a God: what the **** man? Were you high when you created this???
