A Transcendent Shrexperience

May we all be blessed enough to experience the joy of the Ideal Shrek Zone so we can bask in His oniony wisdom.

I feel like I have been in the Ideal Shrek Zone for years :(

Wasn’t that an implosion and therefore instantaneous?

[–] [email protected] 58 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I think I read recently that they had dropped their weights something like 45 minutes before the implosion. Seemingly indicating that they knew something was wrong and were trying to resurface. 🤔

Either way, not enough for a full Shrek movie. 🤷🏼‍♀️ (Sorry if it's too soon)

They knew something was wrong for 45 entire minutes? Every new piece of information about that submersible awakens fresh nightmares, thank you.

Maybe it did ominous cracking noises during those 45 minutes

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

Very likely.

It was much less than that, only a few seconds.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago

Yes, but that just increased the speed at which their IQ was dropping.

Why am I suddenly experiencing the works of Shrekspear?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 months ago

Except we now know the sub imploded, and they were killed instantly. Apparently they dropped ballast seconds before the implosion, so they must have seen or heard something.

Also, the US armed forces have a bunch of undersea microphones to listen for Russian subs, and they knew what had happened immediately, and told the crew on the support vessel.

This is a lie to make people feel better, rather than let them think they will die instantly, let them think for an hour and 30 mins they will calmly enjoy their final minutes listening to Mike Myers. Personally I'd rather go out to Wayne's World if it's going to be Mike Myers.

dyeing instantly would be preferable imo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My preferred death would be instantaneous combustion. No need for a cremation later, just a one shot of death and decorporealization.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My preferred death would be something so utterly absurd that people would talk about it for decades afterward.

So like the one jar guy?

Some of our best shitposting artists are over 60, don't forget.
