But really. How bad would that be? Sea monkey world domination. I can see the upside. You'd go to work naked. No more worrying about what to wear. You'd be underwater, so you wouldn't have to worry about doing your hair. Tridents replace nuclear subs. Sea horses become a major mode of transportation. No more worries about fossil fuels and global warming. I don't know if there is a downside to this.
Alright, the tub dwelling sea monkeys get a pass. They will live another day. So now I guess my new mantra around town will be, "Make Sea Monkeys, Not War." I wonder if it'll catch on?

As a kid, I inherited a bunch of comic books from the 1960s and '70s. Every comic, it seems, was required by law to have Sea Monkey advertisements. The fleshtone seamonkeyness was most offputting. Yet I couldn't stop gazing...
You crack me up, Ava!!!
Kameron, you make me feel old. I got those comics NEW. LOL
That pictures dredges up bad memories...faint ones, of the horror of a sea monkey television show...is that what it's from? Eek!
Okay. The whole sea monkey thing is getting a little creepy. Especially the faces and family things.
Kameron-I hear you. I too was mesmerized. I would look at my older brother's comic books, and every one would have the sea monkeys. I always wanted to buy them.
Natalie- There was a TV show?!?!?! Can I get it on ebay? lol.
Not a fan of the sea monkeys, Sue? I have a whole category on the blog dedicated to them. I think they're my unofficial mascots. They're a good go-to category. When in doubt, blog about sea monkeys.
There was! But it was live action, not animated, like I thought:

Howie Mandel starred!

eBay has a Japanese version on DVD!
Hey, I wasn't insulting your sea monkeys. I always wanted them when I was a kid. My stepson had some when he was little. I'd rather not talk about it.
They really do creep me out. Too much like alien, buggy, monster thingys that will take over the world. They'll infiltrate the water supply, enter human bodies and turn us all into creatures like those in the TV show. It could happen.
