The Oatmeal tells the sad story of the male angler fish in 'How the Male Angler Fish Gets Completely Screwed.' Literally, the poor guy is screwed.
You can learn something new from this cartoon. Did you know that the female angler has several sets of testicles, which she uses to impregnate herself? I now know, but where did she get them? Well, from the poor male who melts into her (see the gallery to find out how). That is one way of 'How the Male Angler Fish Gets Completely Screwed.'
