The pet I’ll never forget: I was so proud of my Sea-Monkeys – until their orgies repulsed me

Deprived of pets for most of my childhood, my first came out of a sachet. They were educational and prize-winning, but I couldn’t overlook their incessant sexual bacchanal

@couts The kicker is pretty amazing too:
“I swim in the sea and have accepted that one day I will be dragged into the deep by one of my abandoned Sea-Monkeys, now a giant, sewage-addled mutant.”

Bedazzled by the comic-book ads for X-ray glasses and whoopee cushions, I missed out on the Sea-Monkey debauchery.

@couts If you cannot take the orgies then you are not ready for sea monkeys.
