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

"Directly above the center of the earth." Thanks asshole.

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.

Better north of antarctica than north of arctica.

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

I’m good with it. Keep it somewhat hidden. Once the position gets out, every asshat with a scuba tank and calls themselves “an explorer” will ruin the place.

It's like a basic reading comprehension thing....

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

Narrowed it down to a single planet.

Mark here either has poor reading comprehension, or is intentionally being a little shit by cherry picking part of the title and not reading the whole thing.

The location specified is not 'north of Antarctica'.

It is, 'the Weddell Sea, north of Antarctica.'

Giving 'the Weddell Sea' as the location is actually decently specific, and the 'north of Antarctica' that follows is modifying / adding to the description of 'the Weddell Sea'... not the entirety of the location description.

I would snarkily, rhetorically, ask if people are even taught how to diagram out a sentence structure anymore, but I already know the answer is 'not really, no', because the average adult American literacy level is that of a 6th grader.

Mark, and anyone else who also finds this to be a funny, poignant zinger, need to go back to middle school and relearn grammar.

I assume they mean "just north of Antarctica". But really it could be any body of water on the planet it could fit in.

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

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!

I can specify: south of the arctic.
