The Suez Canal is impacted...and constipated.

What is happening on the commodities markets?

Correct.  Apparently they were mis-careered at birth, and have always known deep inside they were born a Captain in the wrong body...  so brave...

Authorities opened an old bypass, seems like some smaller ships can go through there. It's estimated that it will take several weeks to remove the giant ship.

I am betting this is the case especially as it has now come out that human error was involved. could be a very unqualified man but men are generally held to a higher standard.
This is where diversity and equality will lead the world. right into the mud. I don't care what anyone says, women should never lead or "captain" anything.

show me one thing that both men and women can do, that a woman is the best at.....

Nah, I've been down the Suez and all along the Gulf of Aden, etc. I've witnessed crews of oil tankers and other high-value ships make some pretty big fuck ups, including things like plotting routes straight into rocks. The Russian captain slapped the guy's face so hard right in front of me for that one.

Isn’t this being blamed on strong winds that forced vessel off course and into the shallow end of the canal?
Title: Re: The Suez Canal blocked.
Post by: IroNat on March 27, 2021, 06:58:12 PM
This same ship got into an accident a year or two ago in Germany and hit a ferry.

The cause was said to be "high winds".

Didn't we dig the canal then give it back after a certain period? Now it's still our job to maintain it? USA makes horrible deals.

No it was Van Halen that dug the canal and negotiated the terms of the deal.

Hahahaha, no shit.

How much harm/economic loss to normal people is being caused each passing day that massive piece of shit blocks a waterway so prolific for trade as the Suez Canal?

Just load it with TNT [ideally with the affirmative action captain still inside] with a cleanup crew on standby and be done with it.

Or is that not possible because this ship contains something extremely valuable, like gold bullion bars, uncut diamonds, or millions of face diapers?

No France gave us pizza and the Liberty Bell. After the US dug the Suez Canal the Seuz Indians built the Statue of Liberty as a “modern lighthouse” so immigrants coming into the Hawaiian Islands would know the same freedom the Suez felt by having the canal to open up trade with the Far East.

You’ve made a common mistake brother.

Suez Indians - brilliant  ;D

Reminds me of something someone once said

"What about the massacres in Sri Lanka, honey? Doesn't that affect us, too? I mean don't you know anything about Sri Lanka? About how the Sikhs are killing like tons of Israelis there? Doesn't that affect us?"

LOL!!!

That makes sense, given all the speculation about Hollywood stars being drugged and anally raped, etc.

Maybe a subtle reference to child and youth stars being addicted to opiates. Corey Feldman claimed to have been addicted to drugs [I think opiates, and possibly more] between 1987 to 1989, I think.

I think he's been giving some acting roles lately to prevent him from exposing the names of the casting couch moguls who he said raped children. Whatever happened to him, he seems to have gone through somect trauma.

I never watched that movie...I'm guessing that's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. 🌲⛄

Out of curiosity, how did you remember that specific scene from that post, just from my post? Do you have a world class level memory or something? If so - good stuff!  :) 8)
