the twitter thread the artist created after this was one of the best situations i have ever seen in my whole life:
Somebody give this ignoramus a piece of actual shark skin and tell him to rub his face with it, let him find out just how âsmoothâ sharks really are.
Somebody did. I use it as a pillowcase because itâs so smooth.
But buddy.
Shark skin feels exactly like sandpaper. It is made up of tiny teeth-like structures called placoid scales, also known as dermal denticles. These scales point towards the tail and help to reduce friction from surrounding water when the shark swims. ⊠In the opposite direction, it feels very rough like sandpaper.

Buddy. Itâs smooth. The link you sent me led to a website that described how smooth they are. I dunno, maybe you donât know how to read?
this post is transcendent
Youâre thinking of dolphins. Dolphins are the ones with smooth skin that feels like a rubber beach ball.
