This has to be one of the freakiest creatures that ever lived. The Wikipedia page has a couple of very compelling artists' depictions that make it fairly clear how it got its name.

Whoa! I think I'm seeing things!
This is classic: "The 0.5 to 3 cm-long animal is wormlike--that is, long and narrow--with a poorly defined blob, or stain, on one end. This 'blob' was arbitrarily designated the 'head' even though it had none of the features generally associated with heads."
Hmm.

But what if someone looked at your tailpipe and declared it your head? This worries me.

Not true. I distinctly spotted a poorly defined blob that should be a head. I just know it.

No, no. I believe it was your poorly defined blob I spotted, my friend.
Either that or your tailpipe. I can't tell anymore. I'm hallucinating.
