It’s kind of sad how much jellyfish lore isn’t common knowledge
like, most people don’t know the scientific name of the most well-studied Moon Jelly (Aurelia aurita)
some people think that jellyfish electrocute people, while others think that they’re fish.
some don’t know about the “Immortal Jellyfish” (despite the hundreds of click-baity headlines, haha)
some still think that pee is an effective treatment for stings.
I hope I don’t come across as pretentious, but it really does make it kind of hard for me to talk about jellyfish to other people because. Well. There’s already a sort of a learning curve? Anyways it’ll be weird if I ever meet anyone who is as infatuated to jellyfish as I am in real life because I don’t think I’ll be used to talking technical terms to other people in real life... We’ll see though
