    I can construct a weird true statement from this: All continents besides Antarctica are located North of the South-Pole.

      Technically, almost all of Antarctica is located north of the south pole

        If the south pole is a point, then it has no surface area, so the entirety of antartica is located north of the south pole

    Here I’ll help, it’s also south of the North Pole.

      Top left corner is the Weddell Sea so we know it’s somewhere in that direction

    I don’t know where his ship is, but the man had great taste in blended Scotch! If you run across a bottle of Shackleton in your local liqueur store, buy it.

    It’s like a basic reading comprehension thing…

    The ship is located in the Weddell Sea, which is north of Antarctica.

      they’re saying everywhere outside Antarctica is north of Antarctica, so that doesn’t add anything. it’s deliberately obtuse for humorous effect. basic joke comprehension should be a thing.

      Or south from the Equator line.

    I used to ask my dad where we were on car trips.

    “Directly above the center of the earth.” Thanks asshole.

      The earth is a bit lumpy, so chances are that was a lie and he was actually lost and couldn’t figure out how to get everybody else out of the car so he could go on a trip to get milk.

    If “north of Antarctica” isn’t enough to narrow it down, here are a few tips: it’s also south of the Arctic, further from the Sun than Venus, closer to the Sun than Mars. Now it’s easy to find it!

    most probably between southamerica and antartica.

      See that actually does narrow it down

    Narrowed it down to a single planet.

    • @[email protected]

      narrowed it down to 95% of a single planet!

        If you exclude the landmass you narrowed it down to ~70% of a single planet.

      What a shame. A wreck on another planet would have been way more interesting
