Bucking the System

I feel like bucking the system right now.
I always did, I guess, because I never did really like the system.

So here goes.

I say a whale is a fish.

Sure it's a mammal, but why on Earth can't a mammal also be a fish?

It is shaped like a fish.

It swims in the water like a fish.

Sure it breathes air from the surface, but so do some other fish, like
Siamese Fighting Fish.

And lastly, a whale just looks like a big fish.

A whale is a fish, O.K.?

Explains how Jonah survived, now doesn't it?

Then swap the terms 'cargo' and 'shipment'. As things are
at the moment a [car]go is something transported by ship,
and a [ship]ment is something transported by car. Seems
a bit odd to me.

Because it has mammary glands and is thus a mammal by
that definition. Ask your mamma.
