It's not the anchor that holds a ship in place

It's the weight of the chain

This logic also applies to HTC ladies who frequent chipotle in that it is not the appalling length and girth of the vile smelling chocolate anaconda they farted out that causes the clogging situation that results in the custodian having to aggressively yet futilely plunger the drain for hours on end with his insane clown posse tshirt pulled up over his nose oh wait yes it is the appalling length and girth of the vile smelling chocolate anaconda they farted out that causes the clogging situation that results in the custodian having to aggressively yet futilely plunger the drain for hours on end with his insane clown posse tshirt pulled up over his nose never mind

The chain only helps the anchor achieve the proper angle to the seabed floor to allow the best embedding.

Perhaps the heaviest things we lift and carry are not our weights but our feels.

came in to post this

its the tension between the anchor and where the chain is attached, just like how muscles in our body become tense to lift weight and how harder materials can bear more weight.

Maybe the real thing that holds the ship in place is the friends we make along the way.

The thickness of the captain's erection while anchored with his female assistants balances the ship.

I don't know how to even feel about that.

It sounds like it's supposed to be some type of inspirational quote but everyone in the thread said it's wrong.

Lads, I've sat through a few nautical classes and have a PhD in Ocean Sciences - I can tell you that each and every one of you is wrong!

There is a species of Crab, called the Anchor Crab, that run up to an anchor whenever they see one dangling in the water, and clamp it tight with their claws of might.

This stops the vessel from moving/drifting away.
