A young man goes to his father, and asks him, “Pop, what are ‘ethics’?”“Well, son,” the dad begins, “Let me give you an example. Say you’re working at the store, and a customer comes in and makes a purchase. He hands you money, and you make change for a twenty. As he leaves the store, you look again at the bill he’s given you and realize it’s not a twenty dollar bill, but a hundred dollar bill.”“And where does ‘ethics’ come into that?” the son asks.“The ethical question is, do you tell your business partner?”
Sunfish are rather odd creatures in general. They’re so incapable of defending themselves or reliably escaping predators that their main protection is just being so inconvenient to eat that most predators give up before eating enough to kill them.
An acquaintance of mine once went snorkeling at night in a rather empty region and literally bumped into a sleeping ocean sunfish. It’s quite harmless to humans, but all he registered at the moment was a giant eyeball and a body that looked like just a head. He got scared enough to bite off his mouthpiece.

Lincoln looks a lot like Alfred E. Neuman in this sculpture.

The hoodwinker sunfish would weigh almost 1,900 pounds on Mars.

A 1965 Volkswagen Type I, aka Beetle, weighs 1,600 lbs, so the Hoodwinker Sunfish weighs more than three of them.

If I weighed 100 pounds on earth it would mean I was ill.

Furthermore, you’ll never have a carburation problem with a Hoodwinker Sunfish. BELIEVE IT, OR DON’T!

And yet your mass would be the same. So would your liturgy.
Take care, may Roman Catholic Priest Papadon Enrique Mamadord be with you, and gesundheit.

And the Hoodwinker sunfish on Mars would be a fish out of water.

The ‘Henry Winkler Carp’ is an oily fish – more oily than a Volkswagen Beetle.
Prove it. It will be 54º in Cranford New Jersey today,
Where in the universe can I go to weigh a nicely sculpted 175 lbs.?

And thankfully the Hoodwinker Sunfish does not look exactly like that.

That’s a lot of fish sticks.

Weight is not the same thing as mass.

Sapporo Japan has a Snow Sculpture Festival and the sculptures they make, would dwarf Robert’s.
