    Yup. As someone who’s worked a lot on ships all over the world, I can tell you that waves can be deceiving. It can look like everything is normal, but suddenly the ships roll and pitch will perfectly time a slightly larger swell which then gets to wash in over deck.

    It is worth noting that the ships themselves have no problem handling this. They’re designed so that any water that washes over the deck gets drained out and doesn’t go into the interior. Whoever is on those decks is another story though. Just because your feet are dry, don’t assume they will remain so.

    idk, waves? waves aren’t unexpected on the ocean.

    that’s a good swell, but it didn’t really WTF break my brain, did this break other brains?

    here, this is more wtf: a serial urinator violating the candle section at dollar tree.

        i know all about rogue waves, thanks.

        people are unfamiliar with waves. I wouldn’t have guessed that, but I guess more and more people live in cities these days.

        this is good knowledge to have in my back pocket.
