LOL, nice!

That's the best they could do? Make me a sammich? Stupid asses...

Holy fuck that is a level of spite we should all strive for.

She's a fucking hero!

There better not be mayo on it.

Now we definitively know why the icecaps are melting. That burn!

So she's 16 and can make a sandwich...
BladeMcCloud
Underappreciated comment right here
KorbenDallasMultipass
Has anyone else just never been comfortable with the spelling of sandwich?
JapAnus
Sometimes when I overthink
Three5Nines
Um... No? Why?
timefor
Never understood the whole "make me a sandwich" thing. Guys really ask for that? Personally, if you're offering, could you go get McDonalds?
NoThankYouIThinkIWill
If a man is going to ask me to make him something, a sandwich is setting the bar low. Any chump can make a pb&j
szepasszony
Do you honestly not understand it? It's just tired misogyny: women should be in the kitchen rather than doing x. So original /s

How does one become a 16 year old explorer exactly?
Zahnradfee
You need to train and you need to have funding.
JHawke
Getting lost in style, though it helps to have a obscenely rich father.
MxMenagerie
Yes, because all the male explorers ever were entirely self-made, self-funded and never borrowed money from anyone else to achieve anything.
JHawke
You're putting so many words in my mouth here it's not even funny.
MxMenagerie
Then why the need to mention her dad's money being used? How many people have had to find outside funding for exploration and research?
JHawke
Because it.. helps. It's a lot easier as a 16 year old to find money required for a polar expedition when dad can just flip open his wallet>
drmarkus
Yea, I think the joke was the definition of what an explorer is
JHawke
...what joke

That's the fake pole for tourists and diplomats. The real one is a ways away from the base.

AFAICT the reflective globe is AT the geographic south pole. Amundsen base is 300m from SP according to WIP. Is it that distance referenced?
EternalSunshineOfTheSpotlessMind
I've been there. The pole pictured is the ceremonial south pole. There is a different pole nearby which marks the actual geographic (1)
EternalSunshineOfTheSpotlessMind
pole, but it has to be moved each year to account for the ice movement. (2)
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
Thanks for clarifying. How far are we talking, approximately? 10m/year is 5-600 meters, I'm guessing.
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
Found this after, which mentions 30ft/year, which makes more sense now https://atlasobscura.com/places/the-ceremonial-south-pole-antarctica

I'm betting it's frozen tho

yeah yeah. stupid typo. dunno why I've been doing that lately; typing a completely different yet similar word. usually catch 'em, but meh
PancakeQueeen
Was just about to say the same thing
TrombeOverride
Yup. Preserved for whoever comes to claim it. Granted, kept at something like -30 or -40 degrees, I'm not sure it's going to be edible.
Rantaf
Lolwut.
TrombeOverride
A sandwich left out in the middle of Antarctica will quickly transform into a frozen lump of dubious nutritious value. Won't spoil, tho.
Rantaf
How so? Wouldn’t the nutrients be perfectly preserved? Where would they go?
TrombeOverride
Actually, yes, you're right. I had a brain lapse there. But it'll still probably be less than pleasant to eat even when you thaw it out.

Literally and figuratively feeding the trolls.
RackhamTheRed
Maybe I need to tell her to ignore them? She seems to listen to suggestions
LMTumi
Lol. Post pics if it works.
ChunkFromTheGoonies
It just dawned on me that she’s standing upside down on the earth
LMTumi
As an Australian, she probably knew to bring her ground-harness.
teakasaurus
Oxymoronically burning and freezing them at the same time.
ButterfaceTaintClown
i mean... so many men died to get to the south pole. And, like, the third woman makes a sandwich there. Women rock.
stja
Excuse me for withholding my astonishment at a rich kid whose dad paid for a crew to take her on an expedition several times.
StarboardSide
I think thats a hard claim to make when the lads were doing it back 100 years ago. That includes equipment that's a century behind hers
FalseOP
Not to mention that they were crossing terrain that had never been traversed before. It's still not something to be laughed at but nothing/1
FalseOP
compared to what Scott had to go through
LMTumi
Don't get me wrong. I'm twice her age and have never done anything half as impressive. But feeding the trolls just legitimizes them.
ButterfaceTaintClown
1) are you at the South pole? (2)...
LMTumi
No, but what does that have to do with anything?
sturmhauke
Nah, what they want is for the target to rage or have a breakdown or something. But this makes the trolls look like the dumbasses they are.
Simplyyjeff
She's not feeding them, she's leading them to their deaths.
Ijustwantquiet
She forgot the chips though. /sigh
Sauroctonus
In order for to feed them, they have to redeem themselves by reaching the sandwich.
LMTumi
A man can dream.

Having someone make one doesn't imply intentions of eating it

That's an ultimate power move

Oh I'm already full because it took her so long.

Now someone go to the North Pole with a sandwich, put both on the ground, and make a Double-Decker Earth Sandwich
Astral134
Found the Round Earther!
notsgnivil
EternalSunshineOfTheSpotlessMind
Small issue...there is no ground at the North Pole.
Niiorkl
Wouldn't it technically be a triple decker ?
Tikityler
I prefer my sandwhiches without so much crust.
bkcantthinkofanythingclever
Yeah, but once you get to that hot inner liquid, it's worth it
notsgnivil
Damn, that was good!
TheJomsborgViking
Make me a sandwich is a battle cry shouted by all the neckbeards too insecure to actually talk to a woman the right way.

What if I'm at a subway or Jimmy John's?

Speaking as a neckbeard, I'll make my own damn sammiches, thank you very much! ... I know how I like them...
SmugandFurry
Salted with your own bitter tears?
FallingStar7669
Boarshead salami and mild provolone on tomato and basil. Dry, maybe with a bit of lettuce.
SmugandFurry
Fair enough. You should give Lebanon Bologna a try; it's got bit more tang.
painstream
And if your mom forgets to cut off the crusts, there'll be hell to pay!

I totally would, but I don't like ham and cheese. That's the only reason I'm not going to do that. I could. Shut up.

My dad was not in very good health and in his 60s at the same time I was moving across country for a job and had to go on steroids.
Raecracy123abc
I solemnly looked at him and said I am sorry dad that sucks its going to disqualify you from the Olympics this year. He let out a good
Raecracy123abc
ole loud fatherly barrel laugh. Don't worry Im not trying to get you too chop onions the good man is in better health and still kicking.
Raecracy123abc
Still hasn't made it to the Olympics haha but maybe next year.

My first question... funding?
Sarcgasm
It's just a sandwich, they're not that expensive.

Having super rich parents lets you be more adventurous and smug than the rest of us.
stja
Her father is obscenely rich. Money is the kind of thing plebs worries about.
RMaybeth
hm, this explains so much if not everything about this post. "I didn't have real problems so I had to invented them
ICreatedU
She could have made more sandwiches then
smoakit
Wow how brave, much feminism, she sure showed them!
timefor
Why is this your first question? I'd ask if the sandwich is 37 days old or did she just make it.
Zackblaze2
Lol
RMaybeth
well look at the climate so, that sammich will keep literally forever now
IMayOrMayNotHaveTroubleFindingAndOrChoosingAUsername
Liquid still evaporates (sublimates) when frozen, so it'll be stale as fuck. But you're technically correct it'll then last a very long time

Girl: Accomplishes something really fucking impressive. Internet commenter: YEAH BUT SOMEONE ELSE PROBABLY HELPED HER!!!
CerealKillerr
GotBannedForPostingAYoutubeLink
That trip cost around 100k$, so yeah when a teenager does it, you gotta ask who financed it (dad in this case).
Raecracy123abc
Then at the same time gets pissed at girls her age at Oliva Jade or whatever that girls name that got bought into UCLA.
Raecracy123abc
I'll choose her or a Greta any day
Kbantar
OMG, you criticized a girl. You obviously would never have done that to a male. Yes, we fucking would.
haveyouheardabouttheseinternetmemes
You know there wouldn't be nearly this volume of criticism if the post didn't have something to do w/ sexism. Imgur's jimmies were rustled.
StarboardSide
Honestly if it was a 16 yo boy doing that, I'd think the exact same thing. Most people would haha chill out
WhatUpIGotABigHawk
The old adage “Never assume malice when negligence will suffice” does not apply to the Imgur community.
WhatUpIGotABigHawk
I mean, assuming she skied 8 hours a day she averaged just over 2km an hour or 1.25 mph. That’s not exactly earth shattering and shows 1/2
WhatUpIGotABigHawk
That the limit is most likely the ability to be out there 37 days (money) and not any special skill or stamina.
haveyouheardabouttheseinternetmemes
Alright bud. Let me know when you've done something even remotely similar and tell me how easy it was.
WhatUpIGotABigHawk

"16 year old explorer" means "my parents have stupid amounts of money for me to live a life most never will, then rub it in everyone's face"

To be fair, I would too. Minus the rubbing part.

why people hate hearing the truth? Then resort to stupid internet assumptions. She's a spoiled kid, 99% of folks can't afford that life.

A win's a win..
RobErtE87
Well, unless she got carried to the south pole in a climatized sedan chair, the money, that allowed her to do this is not that important.
RobErtE87
She did it, and she did it the same way as the other scientists there.
ematic
I'm not saying she didn't do it. I'm saying 99.9999% of people aren't doing this, let along at 16. $$ ( and other) barriers.
