Oh my god, that scene in the beginning of Amistad just flashed back in my head. I had completely blocked it for like 25+ years and now it is back, oh god, I feel sick.

Well, that's something I'll actually apologize for. This is meant to be a humorous vent, not PTSD inducing.

No worries, no need to apologize, I enjoyed your post :)

Well, I suppose it's PTSD-inducing if someone is a health insurance CEO. But if that's the case...TO THE SEA WITH YOU!!

Everybody wants a rock to wind their CEOs around.

Could we not go for a more sustainable solution? I'm sure they'd make a pretty decent fertiliser.

The CEOs will be fully recycled by sea life. Steel is just iron and carbon, no real damage to the environment as they rust away. And boulders are inert. And we can make sure the CEOs are dressed in suits made of all natural fibers when we chuck 'em in the drink!

We are just replenishing the world's supply of low radiation steel. In a thousand years scientists will be so thankful.

Truly. That's why they like yachts. Deep in their hearts, they yearn for the Sea. They know they are meant to become one with it!
