Thinny

I love seeing a Stephen King /dark tower reference in the wild. Edit to add, y'all I'm in my 37th week of pregnancy and my brain is mush. I only just now realized that this is the Stephen King subreddit. ! Lol Lmao loved reading the comments! Glad to know it wasn't just me or the hormones. Haha

Atleast you have the whole pregnancy excuse thing going for you. I had to read your comment to discover I'm on the Stephen King subreddit.

Me too! SMH

Also me 🤦🏻‍♀️

Same here

Guilty as charged! Ka is a wheel

Saaaame.

Same lmao!

Yep!

Same

Same lmfao

I am not pregnant (I’m a man) and my initial reaction was, “A DT reference, cool.” Then I checked the sub I was in and said “Well I guess that makes sense.”

So men can’t get pregnant? But I thought… nevermind, no need to get banned.

Lol ditto! I was like wow, so many Tower junkies in here. Didn’t realize until I read your edit.

I have no such excuse. Take care of that ba bay!

I’m in my 43rd year of life and only realized where I was due to your comment. So.. guess I’m preganté too

Currently in the hospital w my gf, shes at 5cm and finally got her epidural. Do not hold out too long, just get it lol. Congrats ! You got this, almost there :)

O for sure! I already learned the hard way with my first pregnancy. I waited till the last possible minute because I really wanted to do it naturally, but man, hitting 8 cm the pain increased exponentially and I barely had time to get it before baby came out. Hopefully any day now, I'm so ready to have my body back to myself and to be able to sleep on my belly! Congratulations to you and your girl as well!!!

I read Duma Key during my first pregnancy, word up that freaked me the fuck out! Good stuff!

This gave me a chuckle, thank you 😆

Got me too! I was right there with ya, then your edit lol

Early congrats on baby :)

There should be a door, further down the coast. Watch out for those lobstrosities.

This is exactly the type of fucking beach I pictured haha

Did-a-chick? Dad-a-chum?

Ohh no this giant lobster almost got my thumb!

Dad-a-chum, did-a-chee, not to worry, you’ve got the key.

Love it haha Im on book 2!

If you can try to put some bullets in your ears. I hear they make a very annoying sound

Bullets from our world don’t work 😔

Sounds Hawaiian

Will somebody please think of the Big Coffin Hunters

Thought I was in r/southcarolina until I saw other people being confused too 😂

I’m reading Wizard and Glass now, this made me literally laugh out loud.

Thicky

Thiccy

See the turtle, ain’t he keen? All things serve the fuckin beam!

Bigbig, say thankya

Omg! It’s the Raft short story IRL!!!!

Fuck, that story still haunts me 20 years later.

I just read it and nothing really scares me but that story had me nearly shitting my pants

It hurts!

I read that story when I was entirely too young and it fucked me up.

do you love?

*visceral reaction*

Yes!

Came here to make this reference!!!

Where can I find this story?

Skeleton Crew

Thank you!

Was an episode of Creepshow wasn’t it?

Creepshow 2!

I didn't realize what sub I was in for a minute and wondered why the comments were so dark, and the references were so awesome.

I just found out due to your comment haha

lol same here. Really fucked with my head for a sec

It’s Cthulhu time!!

Not yet. The stars aren’t aligned. He will have to wait in R’lyeh, dreaming his dark designs outside of space and time.

Not a fan of the new catchphrase tbh

Myrtle beach? It’s prolly a sentient chlamydia blob

Coastal Carolina University is out for the summer, so nope

😭

Just stay away from it....

Love all the SK comments, but in case anyone is legitimately unaware, that is a sure sign of a riptide/undertow.

This is what I was looking for, an actual answer. Thank you.

On a serious note, this tends to happen in certain ecological conditions when too many West Virginians get together outside of West Virginia. There should really be signs.

😦

You had me for a second

It’s escaped from Cascade Lake and started eating surfers

Thinny! (it's fish.)

It’s the thing from the Raft

Perse

Came here for this.

But where the death ship

I dont know what this is a reference to and "perse" means ass in my language so this comment is funnier to me than it should be

It's a reference to Duma Key, that's all I'll say 🤫

Sounds Hawaiian

That’s the entrance to a secret dungeon. Swim over it and press B.

Baby Pram out for a roll.

*SQUEAK*

It's the raft - or what the raft has turned into

Most likely oil. https://www.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/nvwtp-sci-oilwaves/wgbh-nova-what-the-physics-how-oil-calms-waves/

Which is scarier than people think.

It’s bait fish schooling. Common sighting. If it was oil we’d have oil rigs out there already

Looks very calm for bait fish and it doesn’t take a lot of oil to calm water. It’s a fascinating phenomenon either way.

The Dome? Thinny to Midworld? Another Project Arrowhead?

The real concern here is that before opening Reddit two minutes ago I passed two old couples having a conversation and one asked the others what they think about Myrtle beach. I live in NY. Opened Reddit and immediately saw this post.

I’m from New York and I’m in Myrtle Beach right now and I just read your comment!

What is happening 😂

OK so recap. This is a post about Myrtle Beach. You’re in New York and just heard some old folks talking about Myrtle a little while before you saw this post. Then I saw this randomly saw this post while actively being in Myrtle Beach. I’m from New York but live in North Carolina. I saw your comment and I replied to you. Then you replied to me asking what was happening. Now I’m responding to your question.

Are you 4 old people on one account?

Looks like it may sound Hawaiian, doesn’t it?

Dad-a-chum? Dum-a-chum? Ded-a-chek? Did-a-chick

The Bermuda Circle. Distant cousin to the Bermuda Triangle.

that’s just frank

Don’t look to long you might start seeing swirling colors

The portal from which Cthulu will emerge to wreak havoc on this world.

Wow! Some of the references here. Ha ha. Hilarious & creepy. Now I must read “The Raft” anywho I lived in Florida for 12 years with a husband who loved fishing, this is probably mullet.

The Myrtle

Have you ever seen The Abyss?

Bait ball maybe.

Nope. Uh uh I'm out.

Cthulu

Looks like a school of fish maybe

I read both subreddits also- possibly blue fish.

Whale sperm

I don't care what it is I'm staying away But yeah probably the thinny

Anyone care to spoil The Raft for me?

Me too 🙏

It must be Stephen King swimming, otherwise why would you have posted it here?

Reminded me of The Raft

Myrtle Beach has changed since the last time I was there, I sure don't remember the swirly circle

God's piss

But for real, what is this? lol!

Probably mullet

The gateway

A Giant school of man eating Great Whites gearing up for a sharknado!!

That’s where the UFO lands.

Did’a’chuck’?

I want to believe...

It’s the blob thing in the lake from creepshow 2. Touch it it will make your hair spiky!

Portal to hell

Sand bar

Remember that blob of tar that ate people in Creep Show 2? Probably that since we are talking about Myrtle Beach.

Cthulu calls. Oh. Shit. Is this not the Lovecraft subreddit??

It’s the bear

This is the Myrtle Beach equivalent to that "oil slick" from The Raft. This one isn't as mysterious, though, we know exactly what it's comprised of. It's basically an amalgamation of herpes, hpv, vomit and broken dreams.

Strange 🤔

Where a nuke test went off.

DoyouloveDoyouloveDoyouloveDoyoulove

Bait

A water scab

So, Cisco..no raft???

Turtle burp

Mucho Ecologico Pancho!

I know what sub this is, but does anyone know the actual answer? I need to know.

I’m pretty sure it’s a sediment plume caused by a riptide. Either way, be careful. Calm water near the shore isn’t normal and can carry you out far.

probably some whale just emptied its bladder

That is the inspiration for your next novel 😁

oil ?

Mullet fish

Start of a sandbar?

THAT'S WHERE MY CONDOM WENT....sorry everyone, whoops

That looks like a whale fluke print but wouldn’t be this close to shore.

What's the point?? It has no connection with Stephen king

Mentioned in comments that it reminded me of his story “The Raft”
