I'm not dumb I SWEAR!! I just never heard the name of them before
That's hilarious 😂🤣
You've never seen this strip before? Congrats, you're the lucky 10000
Oh, I've seen that plenty. I was just playing a joke on @edgemaster72@lemmy.world with a reference from a previous thread .
That's hilarious 😂🤣
And the containers themselves are called shipping containers.
So container ships ship shipping containers.
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
And in those containers? Car-go 🤷🛻
Shipping container ships
Carry shipping container ship containers
Whos’ contents
Are shipped in containers in a shipping container ship container
It also contains containers!
Which makes it a container!
Or, to be more specific, a container container.
(Yeah. Just let the buffalo buffalo. Whatever.)
If you think about it, the ocean is a container for ships
A container container container? Obviously, the planet Earth is a container for the oceans.
It's containers all the way down.
Container? I barely know'er!
Each of which contains shipments.
You'll never guess what oil tankers carry.
Tanks!
I mean... yes
I realized it when i first saw the docker icon. Its a program that lets you run things in containers:
It's a pleasing icon 😌
If you like that thought, you'll love the ship-shipping ship, shipping shipping ships!
... see also this jalopnik post.
The amazing part about this is that Jalopnik still exists.
What I find more crazy than a ship being able to carry around a dozen ships is that each of the ships lower in the stack are built strong enough to carry four other ships on top of them even though they aren't built for that use case at all.
Imagine stacking 5 cars on top of one another and the bottom one getting out of that without any damage.

How neat is that?
Similarly, you can tell that it’s an Aspen because of the way that it is.

TIL they're called wheelchairs because they are chairs with wheels
Maxpages!
It’s called a fireplace cuz it’s a place where fire lives
They also contain shipments.
Yes, but oddly, if it goes by ship it's car-go and if it's by car it's ship-ment 🤷
There should be a no stupid til community. Just a random observation. Complete non sequitur.
god forbid a woman realize something

Get off the internet, dad!

Just curious, you from a land locked region?
Or not a native English speaker... and there might be a disconnect between "ship" and "container" and "container ship" in their native language.
They're actually called containerships. It's like friendship but way better.
