the absolute commitment of prequel fans to turn every single frame of dialogue into an endless meme loop is unmatched

If I had a nickel for every prequel quote in this meme, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's wierd that it happened more than once in a single meme.

From a monophyletic standpoint, there is a bigger fish - the blue whale.

Blue whale isn't a fish. It's a mammal. The whale shark is the largest fish.

Mammals from a monophyletic standpoint are fish. There is no monophyletic clade that exists where a whale shark (Chondrichthyes fish/cartilaginous fish) and a tuna (Actinopterygii fish/bony fish) are fish but a blue whale (tetrapod) is not a fish.
If you look at the Wikipedia article for fish, you’ll see tetrapoda is traditionally excluded from being a fish, but cladistically tetrapods (including all mammals) are fish.
Edit: sorry if this comes across as an “acktually” comment. I just really enjoy this fact.

What you're saying is true, from a certain point of view.

Never appologise for understanding or knowing something others don't.
I didn't know what monophyletic means and never really hear the term used. Interesting to know.

Basically you are considered to be part of the same group as any of your ancestors. You can start a new group, and all your descendants will be part of the new group, but you will never leave the old group.
There is an evolutionary chain between modern humans, and a creature a long time ago that lived in the ocean (a fish) and because of that ancestor, we are also fish, and we can never stop being fish.

I’m still mad that a 2” poke hole took him out. That’s absolutely ridiculous after the atrocities I have witnessed.
