"Why do sea horses grab anything they can with their prehensile tail? Why should I only eat oysters in months that contain the letter R?" An inebriated man 'drunk texted' these questions and more to the Ask an Aquarium Educator.

CHARLESTON, S.C. — The South Carolina Aquarium on Monday shared screenshots of messages sent to the “Ask an Aquarium Educator” number from a slightly inebriated, but curious, man.

The man, who was “currently at the corner of Market and Meeting” Streets, asked the educator what that spot would’ve looked like “10,000 years ago before the area was settled by humans?”

He then asked when the area was first settled by humans.

His stream of consciousness then takes him to “why do sea horses grab anything they can with their prehensile tail?” and “why should I only eat oysters in months that contain the letter R?”
