The quarter-mile-long container ship that’s currently blocking the Suez Canal traced a distinctly phallic route in the hours before being blown off course and becoming stuck on Tuesday morning.
The route charted by the MV Ever Given in the Red Sea before entering the Egyptian waterway appeared to resemble a penis, testicles and butt cheeks when viewed as GPS data, per images and video shared online by the live boat tracking websites Vessel Finder and MyShipTracking.com:
Disinformation researcher John Scott-Railton suggested the X-rated route of the boat ― traveling from China to Rotterdam ― was not intentional, describing it on Twitter as “innocent, but terrible luck.”
Of course, other Twitter users had thoughts:
Blocking the Suez Canal being a literal dick move.

No matter how bad shit gets for you today, no matter how hard things may seem… Know this: You didn’t accidentally GPS an enormous ocean cock-n-balls then get your giant cargo ship stuck sideways in the Suez Canal. https://t.co/HhlzI8vSvb
