I just listened to a passing mother tell her child "Look sweetie! See how high that mast is? That's how deep the rudder sits in the water."
I'm relieved to report that the child displayed a healthy amount of skepticism at this statement. Firstly, because you should never believe everything you're told -- but more importantly because it's fucking nonsense.
That's surely one for the next edition of great lies to tell small kids.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been deliberate bullshit, right? Right?
I wish I could tell you otherwise, sir.
ReplyDeleteI really, really do.
