A manatee is what we sometimes see when observing a well-formed floating turd in the toilet that at first glance appears to be just a ball, but that after glancing sideways we become aware is long and floating in a perfectly vertical position.
I wasn't that impressed when I first looked at my shit because it felt bigger, but then was kinda pleased with the length when I looked from a different angle. Bit of a manatee!

Manatee joke 

A manatee joke is a kind of humour popularised by Family Guy and satirised by South Park. A manatee joke is when one of the characters says something that has nothing to do with the plot or characters in the show, but leads into a flashback of the scene described
"Remember that time you slept with Bill Clinton?"
(Cuts to a scene of Lois boinking Bill).
"Oh Peter, remember when this show used to not rely on manatee jokes?

Guy 2: What are you talking about, she looks like a man, and not a good lookin' one at that.

Guy 1: Oh... I guess you're right, the manatee effect had me going there for a second.

Manatee Flipping

Verb- refers to the act of taking MDMA (ecstasy) and a strong narcotic (such as Oxycontin) simultaneously, producing a gentle, very carefree state of mind, not unlike a manatee drifting about the Florida Keys (before getting crushed by a speedboat full of bitches).
Carlos: "Hullo Xavier. Have you seen Pascual? He seems to be very slow."

Xavier: "Indeed. He's manatee flipping really hard."

Carlos: "We should engage in that soon."
