When I was a kid, there was nothing better than water balloon fights. I grew up in Brooklyn: we had the fire hydrants, and we would open up a soda can at both ends and squirt people walking by. I love the kinds of things that encourage you to let your guard down, be open and vulnerable, and just to be laughing sincerely.

Daniel Dennett

The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore so it eats it!

American Philosopher

Hanya Yanagihara

No religion makes more use of color than Hinduism, with its blue-skinned gods and peony-lipped goddesses, and even the spring festival of Holi is focused on color: Boys squirt arcs of dyed water on passersby or dump powder, all violently hued, on their marks.

American Novelist

Andrew Zimmern

If there's one thing I've learned after a lifetime of dining on delicacies like blood pudding, sea squirts, and camel kidneys, even folks who wouldn't come within 100 yards of a Cambodian tarantula want to hear what it's like to chomp on one!

American Critic

George Orwell

The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one's real and one's declared aims, one turns, as it were, instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.

British Author

Jamie Wyeth

From my earliest memories, my aunt was squirting out oil paint. I could just eat it. I would go from her studio and walk down to my father's house, and there he was, working in egg tempera.

American Artist

Gary Bettman

Let's put it this way: I would consider my skiing ability to be far superior to my skating ability. And, in fact, my 10-year-old grandson, who's a AAA squirt, can skate circles around me.

American Businessman

I started doing professional theater and industrials in Chicago when I was a little squirt.

This is unexpected... like squirt from aggressive grapefruit.

Prosperity isn't something that squirts out of rich people.

Suggests a sudden, forceful action, often used when describing how to use objects like bottles or guns.

Action Intensity

Used when controlling the amount of substance, ideal for cooking or dispensing medicine.

Controlled Quantity

Can be used metaphorically or humorously to describe a situation where someone is in trouble.

Informal Insult

When used to describe a person, context can change it from playful to condescending.

Context Matters

The term may vary in perception; in some cultures, it might be seen as more offensive than in others.

Cultural Nuance

 There can be no evolutionary advantage to laying down memories of childhood or perceiving the color of a rose if it doesn't affect the way you're going to move later in life. Now for those who don't believe this argument, we have trees and grass on our planet without the brain, but the clinching evidence is this animal here -- the humble sea squirt.

 squirts out of the pulmonary artery. The ventricular valves, called the tricuspid in the right ventricle and the mitral in the left, can be seen through the clear water opening and closing like parachutes as the ventricle is rhythmically squeezed. This flow of water mimics the flow of blood in life.

How the heart actually...

 because the external water pressure counteracts the internal forces resulting from elevation difference. Whether it’s with the intensity of a fire hydrant or a squirt gun, this system swiftly delivers our urine to the outside world.

 a region important for motivation. Like all addictive drugs, it prompts a squirt of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens which gives users a surge of pleasure. Alcohol also causes some neurons to synthesize and release endorphins.
