In the original Hans Christian Anderson tale this guy is such a bag of dicks though, he's already married and basically takes on the mermaid as a concubine even though being on land is literally physically traumatizing for her.

Yeah, animated versions of fairy tales are generally nicer, Prince Eric included.

an on fire ship

if only we had a better word for when something was on fire

It's iffy grammar, but perfectly workable communication.

policing grammar like that is annoying. especially given that not everyone here is a native English speaker.

I was thinking "burning"

"An on-fire ship" feels distinctly like a child saying "timesing the numbers" instead of "multiplying the numbers"

that makes sense, they should have said "ship that is burning"

thanks

For many people in the world (and Lemmy), English is their third, or even fifth, language. An on fire ship makes as much sense as an airship, motorcycle, or sidecar.
