The genetically engineered piranha must be fed today. Everyone must stand atop the trap doors, and those who can't spell piranha without spell check will automatically trigger the device that opens his trap door.
bon appetit. (I had to look that one up, so I'm in trouble if we have to spell that one on the trap door)
Can you spell "piranha"?
Tomorrow, we give the piranha the descendants of the man who dictated to the world long ago that we should spell "piranha" that way.

Is anyone as old as I am? And remember how all the teachers in the United States (certainly in three different primary school systems I attended), how at least two teachers in each system would teach that piranha were the very animals we saw in James Bond films? And no teacher said different.
Piranha were seen as incredible beasts in those days. Also, back in the day, when we would read Agatha Christie, we thought just one drop of potassium cyanide would kill you in less than five seconds. Venomous snakes would bite you, and you would die before you could say "Jackie Robinson". It was an incredibly dangerous world outside of the U.S.A.. Well, it is dangerous, but mostly because of people.
So now, when we put deadly piranha in a movie, we have to explain that they're genetic mutations, like the cast of IMDB. Dangerous mutations, scary, with big pointy teeth.

Good luck with that... They are a shy fish, mostly herbivores.
