The correct term is simply 'gull', sooo......

My Dad finds it physically impossible to let a mention of "seagulls" go past without informing whomever said it that there's no such thing as a seagull, so to keep up with family tradition...

The big aggressive fuckers are usually Herring Gulls:

And the smaller, slightly prettier and almost as aggressive bastards are normally Black-Headed Gulls:

Not exactly teeth, but baleen. Big hairy comb shaped teeth kinda deal.

They can also undo bottle tops including child-proof pill bottles, break into locked ship holds, steal lobsters from fishermen's pots and, if they were given a typewriter, write the Ascent of Man in a 1/4 of the time it took Darwin (probably).
Glad you decided to join the octopus club!

Truth is seagulls don't live at sea. They really live on the bay. They should be called

BAYGULLS
