/OAR/ - OARFISH GENERAL

Can someone give me a quick rundown of this fish?

>>2383985
Really fucking long
Mistaken for sea monsters
Only come up to die
Really weird topic for a fucking general

>>2383985
They get sick and only come to the surface when an earthquake is impending

>>2384023
>>2383792
I wonder what they taste like.
>inb4 le edgy comments
No I mean, they have to have some kind of unique taste being deep ocean dwellers and all.

What's their endgame?

>>2384032

They made the call that ended Atlantis.

>>2383792

Is it possible to keep one in a (very large) aquarium?

>>2384120
no

>>2384026
Shit.
Their meat is basically gelatinous, and they are full of parasites.

>>2384142
So like eating jellyfish with some additional protein

>>2384023
Yes hello do you think this can thrive in a 10 gallon aquarium? Right now I have 3 neon tetra, 2 bettas, 1 dwarf gourami and 1 cory. Thanks in advance.

Let me give you a quick rundown:

>Codschilds bow to Oardanoffs
>In contact with aliens
>Possess psychic-like abilities
>Control the seas with an iron but fair fin.
>Own reefs & deltas globally
>Direct descendants of the ancient royal blood line
>Will bankroll the first oceans on Mars (Oardlantic will be be the first ocean)
>Own 99% of DNA editing research facilities on Earth
>First designer fish will in all likelihood be Oardanoff fry
>Both brothers said to have 215+ IQ, such intelligence on Earth has only existed deep in the Marianas Trench & Bikini Atoll
>Ancient Indian Ocean scriptures tell of two sea serpents who will descend upon Earth and will bring an era of enlightenment and unprecedented technological progress with them
>They own Nanobot R&D labs around the world
>You likely have Oardabots inside you right now
>The Oardanoffs are in regular communication with the Archangels Triton and Cthulhu, forwarding the word of Poseidon to the Greek Orthodox Church. Who do you think set up the meeting between the pope & the Orthodox high command (First meeting between the two organisations in over 1000 years) and arranged the Orthodox leader’s first trip to Antarctica in history literally a few days later to the Oardanoff seep in Wilkes land?
>They learned fluent French in under a week
>Nation states entrust their gold reserves with the twins. There’s no gold in Ft. Knox, only Ft. Oardanoff
>The twins are about 7 decades old, from the space-time reference point of the base human currently accepted by our society
>In reality, they are timeless beings existing in all points of time and space from the big bang to the end of the universe. We don’t know their ultimate plans yet. We hope they’re benevolent beings.

Fuck

OP missed the opportunity to name this thread /OARG/

>>2384026
If catfish is any milestone, they probably taste super bad. All the garbage ends on the seafloor.

>>2384215
Holy shit

>>2383792
Needs moar oar

I could have lived without knowing this existed. Thanks a lot, 4chan.

Oarfish aren't scavengers. They aren't even bottom feeders.

Not only are they physically incapable of hurting you, your chances of ever seeing one are around zero. Don't be such a sissy.

>>2384203
Well played

It's so weird to imagine that these giant fish are just aimlessly floating through the depths of the ocean

It's so weird to imagine that these giant monkeys are just floating aimlessly through the surface of the earth

what is it on the top of its head? what is its function?

>>2384458
a rocking good hairstyle

>>2384457
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

>>2384215
Spectacularly memed, my friend.

>>2384418
Pussy. Oarfish are a cute

>>2384458
It's the front of the dorsal fin. Probably a display function to attract a mate

They're pretty creepy bro

>>2383792
Fish dude here. I'm not gonna lie, I like fishing, scuba, sailing, skinny-dipping at night, but the oarfish gives me the creeps. I ain't afraid of no ghosts, sharks, jellyfish, or sea monsters, but the thought of this creature swimming around with nuclear submarines really freaks me out.

>>2384905
the oarfish possess nuclear submarines?!

Former oarfish enthusiast here. Not gonna lie, it's pretty hilarious watching them surface and die. But seriously, we can't let them get ahold of the submarine codes.

The eye is the creepiest part and it's actually creepier on the live ones

>>2384986

It's staring into my existence.
