in case no one mentioned it, starboard/port make no sense until you’re actually on a ship, at which point they immediately make complete sense.
Enlighten us.
aight so
port isn’t “your” left, it’s the ship’s left.
starboard isn’t “your” right, it’s the ship’s right.
so you don’t have to say “something is off to the right side of the ship”, you can simply say that it’s starboard.
Oh, I thought this was going to be more about the etymology.
port is the side of the ship upon which officers traditionally congregated to drink port after dishing out the day’s lashings
the other side is called starboard because during said lashings sailors would be lined up against a board and look up at/curse the stars while being lashed
Tbh despite being a humanities minor I know jack shit about most ships etymology. I can’t tell if you’re bullshitting or not
me holding a gun to a mushroom: tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit
mushroom: can you feel your heart burning? can you feel the struggle within? the fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. you cannot kill me in a way that matters
me cocking the gun, tears streaming down my face: I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU
I installed custom maid 3d 2 but I only just realized what it actually is
I then made maids based off al my friends and they all kept asking me to lewd their maids
This is the equivalent of walking into a brothel and going “wait a second…!” after a prostitute has already removed her clothes and has you pinned against a cheap mattress.
