Ungbii
Ungbii are a species of vertebrated slug originating from Weun. During the ZY 3097 election cycle for the third Weunese consulship, these unassuming creatures acted a catalyst for the downfall of the favored candidate, Senator Theoposz, dramatically altering the expected outcome of the election (p < 0.1).
Ungbii are also known by a wide variety of other names including 'blebs', 'slugs' and 'oozers'[1], most of which are vulgar slang. Their common name Ungbii is also vulgar, and thus left untranslated.
Biology
Ungbii are a Weunese species of vertebrated slug, similar to the much larger Planarians. The average Ungbii is 9.07 standard imperial units in length, discounting the posterior flagella. They have a simple digestive tract in contrast to the more complex digestive tracts of most other species.[2] Ungbii are also noted for their specialized defensive canisters(?) containing substances harmful to other organic species when ingested, colloquially called 'poison sacs'.
Political impact
Ungbii have long been associated with a variety of negative stereotypes ranging from organic bauplan faults to personality operation failure modes and would have remained as such until the anonymous inception of a meme persuasively and humorously(?) comparing Senator Theoposz to an Ungbii. This meme and its derivatives, collectively referred to as 'Ungbiiposz', resulted in an abrupt and unpredicted loss of popularity for the Senator, due to organic subconscious disgust responses[3] This allowed incumbent Consul Valanous to maintain eir position in spite of eir comparatively low initial popularity, contributing to political unrest in the area during the current crisis.
- ↑ A full enumeration has yet to be compiled.
- ↑ The relative complexities of digestive tracts is difficult for the author to quantify, but organics have clarified that the author 'ought not to worry about it'.
- ↑ Memehazards are not believed to have been involved, unless their level of operation was below Xan's Threshold of Consciousness, which is unlikely for obvious reasons.
