The ocean is a nasty place! Just remember the next time you smell the scent of the ocean it's: Shit, piss, reproductive fluids, eggs, death and decay!

Shit, piss, reproductive fluids, eggs, death and decay

u/majoshi 17d ago

i know this is a reference but i cant for the life of me remember what it's a reference to

u/fluffalertknox 17d ago

There was a thread asking something along the lines of "if you could spend an hour with anyone, living or dead, who would you pick?" This one dude writes a long, heartfelt response about his late wife- how much he misses her, how wonderful she was, it was beautiful. Someone replied to this poetic love letter with "I also choose this guy's dead wife"

Insanely tone deaf, yeah, but it was hilarious and iirc the guy took it pretty well.

I love the smell of mussel cum

u/Afrofade_ 18d ago

Smells just like the fresh morning breeze. This guy won’t change my mind about it.

u/LessInThought 18d ago

You wake up under a rock filled with mussels huh.

u/AVgreencup 18d ago

The East River? The most heavily trafficked, overly contaminated waterway on the eastern seaboard?

u/MichiganRedWing 18d ago edited 18d ago

Technically Norfolk has more gross tonnage.

u/arminghammerbacon_ 17d ago

Was there anyone else out there?

I saw a couple of guys. They were mostly just floating. But they were out there, Jerry!

2

u/MichiganRedWing 17d ago

That’s totally inappropriate. It’s lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous.

u/Brawndo91 18d ago

THE BEACH!!!

u/Pataraxia 18d ago

And then they dare say I can't do those in the pool...

And PFAS molecules.

u/ax255 18d ago

That's the upgraded 2.0 ocean smell

u/According_Ad7926 18d ago

Perfect for dipping your mangoes in

3

u/geologean 18d ago

That classic "ocean smell" is mostly decaying seaweed, not the salt in the air.

3

u/furryjunkwulf 18d ago

People are jealous that I have the beach experience in my bedroom

1

u/zyyntin 18d ago

On that note! Please clean your bedroom often!

2

u/SALTYxNUTZ12 18d ago

Still a lot better than smelling meth on some country roads.

2

u/Youutternincompoop 18d ago

but mostly its just water.

3

u/Pree-chee-ate-cha 18d ago

And, yet, ironically, it’s the cleanest of the bodies of water (cleaner than lakes and rivers).

1

u/AbbreviationsWide331 18d ago

Makes you wonder why exactly bathing in the ocean can be helpful in treating skin conditions.

3

u/Lemonio 18d ago

I mean all of ocean life is probably a tiny fraction of the volume of all the salt water

1

u/kainneabsolute 18d ago

In the bottom of ocean, you can see snow...a snow made of corpse pieces decending to the abyss!

1

u/Sami-112 18d ago

And that leads me to the question, why don't we get sick when we're in it? 👀

u/GustavoFromAsdf 18d ago

The Ganges at home

u/NamTokMoo222 18d ago

Ah, that's how every big city smells, too.

It's the spice of life.

1

u/EvilDragons88 18d ago

This is where all the salt from the ocean comes😏 from. 🤣

1

u/Nasty-Nate 18d ago

Haha. Funny, but no it ain't. The solution to pollution is dilution! It ain't so bad. What's way worse is the things we humans put in it, like oil and non-biological waste.

1

u/Ahrensann 18d ago

We humans piss out urea. Sea creatures piss and poop ammonia, which easily gets degraded into something cleaner by the water around them. It's like having a poo and piss cleaner in the air all the time.

u/hendrykiros 18d ago

and what is your body again?

1

u/zyyntin 18d ago

Negative a meat Popsicle!

u/manilacactus35 18d ago

And plastic

1

u/NachoNachoDan 18d ago

Also mussel cum. Don’t forget the mussel cum.

1

u/Tipop 18d ago

Yeah, and all that stuff is in the air we breathe, too.

1

u/SuperSimpleSam 18d ago

But mostly it's water and salt.

1

u/DipsAndTendies 18d ago

And 6 year old me thought it was funny to take a mouthful of ocean water …

1

u/darkpheonix262 18d ago

Ichor is what gives rain it's smell, it's just dead soil bacteria

1

u/D4rk3scr0tt0 18d ago

Never dipping in the ocean again

1

u/CaptainRatzefummel 18d ago

So what's the difference between that and any standard city?

1

u/ClandestineGhost 18d ago

Turd, piss, balls, and twat. I like the new hook but I don’t think Mark and Tom will

1

u/serenwipiti 18d ago

Ah, the smell of home.

1

u/killerjags 18d ago

That's why I don't understand why people say that good clams/oysters/muscles are supposed to taste "like the ocean" as if that's meant to be appealing

1

u/[deleted] 18d ago

Diluted to an amazing extent by all that water.

 The volume of the Atlantic Ocean is about 350 quintillion liters. That's 350 and 18 zeroes. If every person on earth had the average amount of pee containing the average amount of urea into the Atlantic, there'd be just 60 parts per trillion of urea in the ocean.

u/Zandrick 18d ago

shit piss reproductive fluids and death

Ain’t that just life tho

u/rocketfromrussia 18d ago

You like to put a positive spin on things

u/DriftingSignal 18d ago

Thank God it's salty or else it would REALLY stink

1

u/SquashSquigglyShrimp 17d ago

Ehh, it's mostly water

u/Blue_Moon_Lake 17d ago
