After yet another week of hearing humans ask them to sink billionaire yachts for them, today local orca pods announced they’re getting a little sick and tired of being asked all the time to do humans’ dirty work for them.

It's like asking the kids to be the adult in the room. We should be protecting them.

These aren't billionaire yachts that the orcas are sinking. They're dinky little sailboats, sailed by hippies who sold everything they own to live their dream of freedom upon the high seas, or by trust fund kids who are wandering the world until the money runs out.
