MEMES

The NY Times recently ran a science article entitled

When an Eel Climbs a Ramp to Eat Squid From a Clamp, That’s a Moray.


The catchy title resulted in an explosion in the reader Comments and articles like this "NY Times’ Genius ‘That’s a Moray’ Headline Wins the Internet: ‘Deserves Its Own Pulitzer’


I'll toot my own horn when I recall working with a guy in a printing plant back in the 90's who became my best friend.

He would beach dive at daybreak in the summer, harvest some bugs then come to work and leave them on ice.
He mentioned spotting a moray while reaching under a ledge and "When you swim in the sea and get bit on the knee that's a moray" instantly flew out of my mouth.
John worked pre press and immediately responded "When the film's misaligned and you think you've gone blind that's a moire".
That's when we first hit it off realizing we had common interests and semi warped sense of humor.
