Mantis shrimp 

Gods favorite animal. Being Gods favorite animal it can shatter glass instantly and can see more colors than people due to having more color recepters in their eye. If that wasn't enough they can also be born with one of two types of hands. One of the two types of hands is a claw which has the power to kill a crab instantly. The other is even more powerful and it is a club hand the club hand strikes so fast and hard it generates plasma for a split second. Lastly they also strike in less than half a second.

mantis shrimp 

actually not a true Shrimp, it is actually a type of Stomotopod that frequently comes with live rock. It eats basically anything and can cause havoc in reef systems. Peacock Mantis' are known to grow up to 6'' and some species have the striking power of a .22 pistol! They're by far the coolest live rock hitchhiker. If you have a Mantis Shrimp, it may make a sharp CRACKING noise which means its banging or striking against the glass or something in your tank; known to eat coral, fish and inverts.
guy 1: Dude I just got a mantis shrimp in my live rock, he's so cool looking
me: You're so lucky man!

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
