    You’re both falling for gambler’s fallacy. This instance doesn’t make shark attacks in general any more or less likely.

    Well, it might be affected by how many stars the shark gives the meal, but the human meat industry and their opponents game website reviews so much these days it’ll probably be drowned out by all the fake reviews.

      Ackshualllllllly, a shark is less likely to attack right after eating due to being full. Checkmate.

        Unless they intend to return to the ocean at a different time because it’s the timing that makes it dangerous now.
