It's a common misconception that giant great white sharks with a taste for human flesh can't talk. I suppose it's not unfounded. It can be pretty hard to talk when you live your entire life underwater, and when your basic physiology prevents your mouth from closing completely, and when you don't have lips. 

Popular media, like movies, further the misconception. For instance, all of the scenes in which I was talking to Quint were cut, leaving only those in which I was silent. We had some great conversations! Did you know that when Quint and Hooper were showing off their scars, I was actually there? I showed off all the scars I've gotten from hooks and from my food trying to fight back. But did that make into the movie? Nooo. 

I didn't talk to the guy in the pond, though. I just ate him. 

Well, I was given the designation ‘Bruce’ when I was working in Hollywood, but I also go by “ohmygod it’s got my leg”, “get it off me,” and “AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

You should consider seasickness pills. They’re quite effective, based on the lack of vomit in the stomachs of the day sailors I’ve eaten.”

Happens to me all the time. Sometimes there's just lots of dead stuff floating around. I just try to swim through it and gnaw on whatever's edible.

Such friendly people. I would have eaten them, but they tricked me into filling up my belly beforehand by throwing several pounds of raw steak at me.

It's quite a good life, for the most part. I swim a lot. I eat a lot. I have to gnaw on things to see if they're food or not, but I kind of like it. It's educational. For fun, I, personally, like to stalk small boats. It's also pretty easy to get on TV if you're a shark. One year, my uncle and I had a competition to see which one of us could get in front of the Discovery Channel cameras the most. He sure looked like an idiot when I just gnawed on one for about 15 minutes. 

Being a shark is pretty sweet.

You’re a shark, and you’re comforting me….What are you even doing here.

Code names can play an important function in life. For a few years, I went by the code name Bruce.

Sharks inhabit all sorts of place you wouldn't think to find us, including Tumblr. I basically just follow food sources around. Sometimes they fall overboard. Those are good days.

That system will probably work best for us both. I can, I'm afraid, be a little possessive about my food.

Aw, shucks. Of course we can. 

That’s what friends do after all. 

Kill people. 

And then sometimes eat them.
