Plankton Chronicles: I Know Nothing

My Steemit journey has just started and I'm still on the phase of getting to know what I'm into. Just a few days ago, I realized that the ranks are named after sea creatures and I thought that was cool because I love fishes.

I haven't invited anyone yet to Steemit, I was going to start with my biologist friend, Abraham. He goes to the same dialysis center as I do, we bump at each other quite often. This morning, I sent him a message in Messenger, I excitedly told him that there is a potential to earn and all the other small details I know about the platform. He asked me if I have earned from it, like if I had actually withdrawn an amount as proof that it works. I said no, because I'm still learning how it works and I'm still a plankton. He replied with, "Did you just call yourself a plankton?" I said, "Yes, that's the first rank in Steemit and then you become a minnow, a dolphin, an orca, a whale and probably in the end you become a megalodon." LOL

It took him awhile to reply to my last message. Then he corrected me, that I was not a plankton but a plankter. Plankton is already plural and I should be referring to myself as a plankter instead, moving forward. Oh wow! What do I know? LOL

That's some good to know information. LOL I thought I'd share it here. Most of you probably know that already but anyway, some would be as clueless as me. He sent me some pictures of real plankton from his phone gallery and he allowed me to share it here as well.

I guess it follows that you cannot put an 's' at the end of plankton to make it plural because it already is plural and the singular form is plankter. We learn something new everyday. I hope my friend, Abraham joins me in my Steemit journey, it'd be cooler with him here sharing his Biology stuff all over the Steemit Planet.

Hahaha! I thought you were referring to Jon Snow. Jon Snow is cute and looks like a pine tree. LOL Yep, I hope he joins us soon.

Lordie! If he joins Steemit, I'm never going offline ever again..lol

Hahaha! I hope so, too and drop some spoilers so we won't be too shookt of the twists. lol

Hehehehehe...indeed! Because those twists have been getting more nerve wracking with each passing season

Great job

You touch me with your beauty. Thank you for everything

Meeee toooo! I learnt something valuable today!

Thank you, @surpassinggoogle. This means so much to me. I will support your brainchild projects here, for Steemit and everyone in it.

Hello, plankter! I hope life's treating you well. Take care and be well!

Thank you, I am not so well but I got the hang of it already. Life is tough but we are tougher! You take care, too and all the best.

Glad to know that! 🤗🤗🤗

hello steemian. this is the second time I comment to this post of plankton chronicles. when I signed in to steemit just now, my attention direct to this post😁. before I finish first line reading, I blast my self laughing and laughing. this make me look like crazy to laugh alone. 😁😁😁👏

First and foremost, I had to stop in just because of the Jon Snow meme then I started reading your post, you are definitely right that we learn something new every day, I never knew that a plankter was just a single plankton how cool!! thanks @mermaidvampire

You're welcome. We'll all learn something new here and hopefully earn in the process. Keep Steemin' on!
