I always wondered how they get shipped.

Apparently (support-) animal welfare prevails

are they even vacuumable? Do they get damaged hurt? Tap for spoiler

From personal testing I found out that some sharkies do enjoy vacuum sealing for easier private transport, with no indication of damage or quality loss. I originally planned on buying them offline and needed to check how many might fit in my largest backpack. Before testing, I made sure my personal Blahash consented.

(I promised to give them away in our local trans group, so I cannot into blahaj pit space 😭).

        But even in German it’s just pronounced Blåhaj.

        Sure, -aj would usually be written -ai despite being pronounced the same and å only exists in South German dialects (why the fuck not North German btw???) but still.

          iam only hear for the general silliness and the tomfoolery, there is neither rhyme nor reason.

          other than that, I’ve never heard a single swedsih word being spoken and lost all my doubts about pronounciation after learning how native english speakers pronounce the name of those guys:

          so i just go with what sounds the most fun.

            Those are daksents obviously, how else would you even pronounce them?

            But I think pronouncing Swedish words in German with an IKEA ad accent works well enough.

      I like to think of it as a running gag that everybody does it slightly differently. When I’m with friends, I intentionally pronounce it /ˈblɑːhɑːʒ/ (inspired by the name Raj) though you can think of it as the personal name of my only BLÅHAJ.
