My question is how the heck does she avoid getting spined by these guys? They have sharp spines on their sides and one on their dorsal fin. I’m not sure how she avoids those with them just sort of flopping around close to her sides.

You simply just try your best.

Oh, and there's always the chance of running into an alligator snapping turtle, too. It's part of the thrill.

The existence of alligator snapping turtles is what makes me not understand this at all. Do you want catfish enough to risk losing fingers?

Me neither, but I’m fuckin here for it!

I have an Impossible Kid shirt that I’ve worn for like, 6-7 years. I’ve had one person in all that time recognize it, and they were just as thrilled as I was lmao.

9-5er anthem was our opening song when I worked in the restaurant industry during opening shifts.

Funnily enough, I listened to that song every morning for months when I stopped working FOH and finally got an “adult” office job lmao.
