It's when a woman with tracheotomy performs oral sex on you but pulls your cock out at the last second, takes the load up her nose, and tilts her head back as far as she can before coughing and blowing the shame juice out of her neck hole.
Adrian Brooks

Moby Dick is actually an anagram. It really is mind blowing that no one has noticed it yet. I had a eureka moment when I first figured it out.

It's likely there was a similarly named whale he heard of while he was a whaler

Jesus Christ, the novel's name is not "Moby Dick."
It's Moby-Dick; or, The Whale.

Well. Which one is it? Moby-Dick or The Whale?

Exactly so. Mocha Dick was a famous albino sperm whale known for his grounds off Mocha Island near Chile. His 'human-like' cunning pretty much made him the most famous whale in Nantucket at the time. There was an account of the whale being killed in 1838, but a decade later the same newspaper that published that original account said that the whale had been spotted again in the Arctic Ocean. It's not a huge leap to see the metaphorical underpinnings of the historical/mythological reality that inspired Melville as a young whaler and later as a novelist.

it's in the cetacean chapter which means you never read the book lel
