Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Strawberry disappointment.
I sense a remake of 21 Jump Street.
It'll eventually jump the shark, though.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
A fauxrca.
In all seriousness, it's a pseudorca. Which isn't all that useful as information goes, but how much do I love that that's its actual name?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Our wings are not tired.
The OC has lost my love. I only watched the last 10 minutes last night and it reminded me why I don't bother anymore. A shame since Sandy, still cute.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
From that article:
False killer whales do not closely resemble killer whales.
So why the heck do they call them that? Weird.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
So why the heck do they call them that?
They were originally named by someone with bad eyesight who'd read a description of a killer whale years and years and years ago.

Har. Is that true? Because I can totally see that: "Dude, did you see that? It looked just like a killer whale!" "Are you on crack? No it does not." "IT TOTALLY DOES! I know this from a survey I did."
