WORD OF THE DAY. 8/17/12. SHARK DUMP.

Carcharodon [kahr-kair-oh-dahn]

noun
1. Man-eating shark.

EX. I don't think sharks deserve their own weeks, but I won't argue that people aren't obsessed with these Carcharodon. I blame Steven Spielberg. Ever since Jaws (1975), nerds and common folk alike have been obsessed with sharks. I find Batman fans and Batman writers are especially obsessed with sharks.
