It’s from this National Geographic article about a newly discovered jellyfish that has its gonads on the OUTSIDES of its body. Upon close inspection of the jellyfish, a scientist said these gonads look like “skyscrapers in a downtown business district.”
Imagine the conversation when that scientist got home!
“What did you do at work today?”
“I closely inspected a jellyfish’s gonads.”
“What did THOSE look like?”
“Skyscrapers.”
Lisa-Ann Gershwin also gave this new jellfish the finest name ever given to a jellyfish with external gonads: MEDEOPOLIS, which is Latin for “city of gonads.”
