A man saw something out of a nightmare when a deep sea monster washed up on a San Diego beach.

According to KGTV, Jay Beiler was walking on Black's Beach on Nov. 13 when he spotted a scary-looking fish he thought was a jellyfish.

A closer look revealed it was a Pacific footballfish – a fish that lives in the Pacific Ocean at depths of 2,000 to 3,300 feet where sunlight doesn't penetrate, according to the California Academy of Sciences. They have needle-sharp teeth that point inward, and some male footballfish attach themselves to females as "sexual parasites," losing all their eyes and internal organs except for testes, the site said.

In humans it’s usually the other way around.

That is an anglerfish. They wiggle the little whoozits on the mouth end of that appendage growing from their head to lure fish to their enormous mouth area. Open their mouth, create a suction few small fish can escape. The males are tiny compared to the females, and attach themselves to a female for the rest of their lives. Their organs degenerate, except for their sexual organs, and they become dependent on the female for their life functions.

There just to read the love letters in the sand, no doubt.

“losing all their eyes and internal organs except for testes,”

It’s the opposite for liberal men. They lose their testes first.
