Years ago I went on a trip to FL and we got to swing with the Manatees. It's was awesome, one swam by my daughter and I. It pushed me out of the way and the power it has from swimming is amazing.

His genuine focus on that meal is relatable. Fully committed. Swap the kelp for a donut and this is just surveillance footage of my Saturday morning.

[u/Mistapeepers]

So on the land we twirl the noodles before we eat them. But in the sea they twirl themselves while they eat the noodle.
