When a tiny particle touches your leg and you instantly assume it's a shark.

When you see a jellyfish (plastic bag) float by and run for your fucking life.

When you're watching a giant wave head toward you and instantly wonder who will make it to your funeral.

When you come to realize that the ocean is one big toilet bowl and everyone is 100% peeing.

When your friends are begging you to join them in the ocean and you're like...how about no?

Or even worse — when it gets in your eyes and you think to yourself, this is it.

When you feel the touch of seaweed on your nearly naked body.

And finally, when you get sand so far in your nether regions someway, somehow.
