      In this case I really wonder if it worked or backfired on them, I mean not only is the shale shark harder to transport than a whale (since whales can actually be transported out of water unlike sharks) but sharks tend to be a term that get a lot of attention, so if they'd been truthful, they could have added an additional high value search term to the title without losing any of the existing high value terms

Half the time when my mom sends me baked goods in the mail, they're in a box twice as big as necessary and padded out all around to the point of being tightly packed. I still end up with half of it as just cookie crumbs instead of actual cookies. There's only so much you can do without asking "could you maybe not toss and kick this box around, please?"

      Lathes are used to cut things perfectly round. Have you ever seen someone stick a potato on a drill and then peel it holding the peeler still and then spinning the potato? Same concept, except with metal or wood instead of the potato and way higher speeds. You slap the hunk of material on the axle, the thing starts spinning super fast, then you lower this blade thing down onto it and start shaving material away. Don't worry, I probably never would have learned what a lathe does either, except for that I have to for my job.

    Another similar instance of this is when Six Flags Discovery Kingdom relinquished their killer whale Shouka to Sea World San Diego. They got a massive shipping container and (because they can be) had her semi submerged with life support and caretakers in with her the whole way from Vallejo (1hr N of San Francisco) all the way to San Diego.

      Me at home: "$35k for a lathe is a lot of money."
      Me at work: "That new $500k lathe is pretty underwhelming."
