Morays not only have teeth, they have two sets of jaws, each complete with teeth. The outer jaws grab the prey, then the inner “pharyngeal” jaws launch forward from their normal position in the throat, latch onto the prey and pull it farther in. The design of the creature’s mouth in the Alien movies was based on moray eels. If you must shove an eel up your ass, don’t use a moray. ---

> [@markn\_1](#): > > If you must shove an eel up your ass, don’t use a moray. I can see your point. But honestly if I am ever in a situation where I have considered and exhausted all possible alternatives and have conceded that the circumstances are indeed so desperate that I must shove an eel up my ass, I am probably going to use whatever eel is most readily available. ---

It was an Indian national. Award for unfortunate juxtaposition of a line from the eel article, and a promo for another story: > [@](#): > > After opening the man’s abdomen, a large eel about 65cm long and 10cm thick was found inside. > > **Watch: Korean Air to stop serving hot cup noodles** ---

Yeah; every so often I see articles & stories about the weird things people stick up their butt for pleasure (a tool box is an example I recall). And in the case of men, weird things they stick themselves _into_ as well. A painful way to discover just how far in the fan of a handheld vacuum is. ---
