down your throat, and out your chest.

[–]ILikeSkulls 0 points1 point ago

All this time, I thought it was facefucker.

[–]soth09 1 point2 points ago

Much more apt to hear Steve Irwin was killed by a xenomorph

I don't see what you did there.

[–]orionshmorion -1 points0 points ago

There's no "I" in "team"

[–]ILikeSkulls -1 points0 points ago

No, but there is a "u" in dumbass.

And now that it's on my monitor, it's Sugar Ray behind Rachel Ray behind Sugar Ray with a Stevie Ray hat and a blue ray of an X-Ray of a sting ray with a ray gun on cathode ray.

Someone's overdue for an upgrade.

[–]DrJudgmental 4 points5 points ago

Was that photo taken in Monterey?

My gf's reaction: "Look at the little ribs! It has little ribs! That's adorable!"

[–]slugsmile 42 points43 points ago

I have actually eaten stingray, and it is pretty inconvenient because of all those bones. You have to scrape of the meat with a knife and you won't get very much. And it tastes like ordinary fish, not worth it.

[–]agentmuu 29 points30 points ago

Just blows my mind to realize those are all bones. Lordy.

[–]AwesomeDay 7 points8 points ago

I love stingray because it's so easy to scrape off the meat and there's no bones in between the chunks of flesh. I basically love it for all the reasons you hate it.

[–]zublits 0 points1 point ago

That sounds disgusting.

[–]axonxorz 0 points1 point ago

MMMMMMM. Flesh scraping.

[–]slugsmile 0 points1 point ago

I guess we all like different, eh? I'll make sure that all the cooked stingray I get in life will be sent to you. Have an Awesome Day!

[–]furburger 2 points3 points ago

Sambal Stingray is delicious and there is lots of meat.

[–]sterereo 11 points12 points ago

Would be a cool album cover

[–]dharmagirl07 3 points4 points ago

Cool! Now I want to go out and X-ray other animals.

[–]psYberspRe4DdSpace is deep 15 points16 points ago

I just created /r/XRayPorn - maybe we can make it that place

[–]sanzap 7 points8 points ago

You should try to get in contact with the sfw-porn network

[–]psYberspRe4DdSpace is deep 8 points9 points ago

I know, I mod some of them. It just needs some time until a sub gets included in the official network, about 1000readers.

[–]agentmuu 1 point2 points ago

Godspeed!

[–]kneekaps 1 point2 points ago

i really really really hope this subreddit takes off. i love the idea, very big fan of the SFW porn network

[–]CapnSteeze 4 points5 points ago

More like a sting-RAY...forget it.

[–]sockstream 3 points4 points ago

Crikey!

[–]iceburgh29 1 point2 points ago

I believe it's spelled "Croikey".

[–]DeadIrwin 0 points1 point ago

You're telling me!

[–]AutomaticButt 1 point2 points ago

Too soon...

[–]DeadIrwin 0 points1 point ago

It's fine.

[–]ZedsBread 4 points5 points ago

I find it interesting that almost all animal life follows the basic shape of a sperm: the 'head' that gets propelled by its 'tail' - our spinal cord (+ leg extensions in most animals). Some animals found ways of life where they didn't need to grow legs, of course - pictured above.

It blows my mind to consider this, coupled with considering people who do not believe in evolution. We are all so much more alike than some would have you believe.

[–]Klyk 2 points3 points ago

So what are we looking at here? I mean, are those all bones throughout the capey thing or what?

Can somebody explain like I don't understand Stingray anatomy?

[–]obizuth 6 points7 points ago

Those are pectoral radials. Stingrays are elasmobranchs which means they don't have bones like you and I, but they do have a cartilagenous skeleton. This structure helps support their large pectoral fins.

[–]Klyk 1 point2 points ago

Thank you!

[–]Kratzyyy 1 point2 points ago

This is a top-down x-ray image of a stingray and the bones you see are indeed all the bones in its "canopy".

[–]Klyk 5 points6 points ago

How does it work? Why does it need all those bones?

[–]Creator_of_Cones -1 points0 points ago

[–]dedevbot 1 point2 points ago

Can you find the age of sting rays by counting their rings?

[–]SlayerOfDragons 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of Las Plagas from Resident Evil 4

[–]Henry_James 1 point2 points ago

Not sure if stingray, or facehugger.

[–]evilawesome 0 points1 point ago

[–]vtaznj 0 points1 point ago

I wonder what the stingray would think if he/she saw an x-ray of a human...

[–]ChrisyChris 0 points1 point ago

It looks like that egg that alien plants....

[–]LilRoundhouse 0 points1 point ago

I did not read the title, but I thought it was a lightbulb in an ass.

[–]erikb1224 -1 points0 points ago

Worst part besides being a repost is that it was up last week .

[–]LaboratoryOne -5 points-4 points ago

This has been reposted too often and clearly Downdude agrees.

[–]princesspool -3 points-2 points ago

Goatse!

[–]Gyissan -2 points-1 points ago

Holy shit they look like evolved versions of horseshoe crabs.
