plenty of kids up for adoption

Maybe this is very country-dependent, but at least in the Netherlands that’s not the case at all (and adoptions from abroad get shady, like without the mother’s consent)

In Dutch, “haai” (shark) sounds very similar to “hi” (the English word), same for “hooi” (hay) and “hoi” (hi). Which leads to this hilarious comic I saw once where a shark meets a bale of hay ^{edit: somehow I typed bay of hale}
