Lol everyone is hating on this dude, but I actually saw it as motivating and helpful. This would have kept me distracted from overthinking it and hesitating, and pushed me into a "just do it" mode.

52

u/realhuman_no68492 May 09 '24

I had a similar experience with such "motivation" before. I was both motivated and annoyed at the same time.

u/[deleted] May 09 '24

Me too. Like they were in it together. Like his friend saw hesitance and decided to support him by steering him into the right mindset. And then celebrating his achievement together.

u/whatdidubreak May 09 '24

That's EXACTLY my take on it as well. You just worded much better than I worded lol.

Seriously I'm sorry for taking away from your joke and fucking up the thread. But ya I think he said "before she dives".

u/shart_leakage May 09 '24

You didn’t take away from it. You took it outside behind the shed and beat it to death, until it was a pile of ground meat, and then you fucked the pile of meat.

u/L4n0x May 09 '24

there have been cases of whales seeking humans to help them with stuff like nets etc.

u/uncultured_swine2099 May 09 '24

Yeah, if the whale really wanted to get away from the boat he would be long gone.

36

u/robbak May 09 '24

There's no doubt that whale was hanging around them so they could cut that rope off. The whale knew what they were up to - if it didn't want to be there, it would have just dived and swum away.

u/JohnsonMeatTower May 09 '24

Maaan, people keep giving the guy shit for yelling at uh... what was his name... oh ya Sam. But in high stress, unusual situations like that where you have (most damn likely) never done anything like that before, it honestly helps alot. On top of that, if it was really after 3 hours, shit I would be tired and need someone too be yelling at me to keep going. Like working out with my friends, I appreciate the constant yelling of what's obvious to do cause it keeps my head in the game.

u/LoudBackgroundMusic May 09 '24

George: The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. I got about fifty feet out and suddenly, the great beast appeared before me. I tell you, he was ten stories high if he was a foot. As if sensing my presence, he let out a great bellow. I said, "Easy, big fella!" And then, as I watched him struggling, I realized that something was obstructing its breathing. From where I was standing, I could see directly into the eye of the great fish. Jerry: Mammal. George: Whatever. Kramer: Well, what did you do next? George: Well then, from out of nowhere, a huge tidal wave lifted me, tossed me like a cork, and I found myself right on top of him - face to face with the blowhole. I could barely see from the waves crashing down upon me, but I knew something was there. So I reached my hand in, felt around, and pulled out the obstruction. [George dramatically reveals the obstruction to be a golf ball] Kramer: [somewhat embarrassed] ... What is that, a Titleist? [George nods] Kramer: A hole in one, huh?
