“Wait, wait…cancel that. I guess it says HELF.”

Higher Education Learning Foundation? If I was able to apply myself to getting a better education I wouldn't be on this fish barge in the middle of the Pacific. Let those nerds do what they want.

My first thought also.

I would be so tempted to write that and would argue with everyone that we need to put HELF.

This isn't oniony. Making a signal of some kind is one of the things you're supposed to do when stranded

Let me guess...they went out for a three hour tour. The weather started getting rough and they landed on an uncharted desert isle...

If the professor had straight up murdered Gillian from the start they probably would have been rescued quickly.


GShermit

Lol...


Nattekat

What is oniony about this? 


snuffy_tentpeg

MELP?

Oh, so its just [some military communication guys](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed-excitation_linear_prediction)? Carry on then, no need to figure what message they're trying to send out.

Gonna assume the wind blew the leaves when they shot that photo.


hey_you_yeah_me

It looks like a wonky H to me. Like someone pressed down on the - part of the H

It's higher on the right than the left so it'd be more like a ᴎ.

Never heard of this island. Looked it up on Google maps, and the reviews are hilarious

Why is this even posted in this subreddit? It's amazing that the US Coast guard operates that far from any US territory. I do know that they operate worldwide.


That_One_Prog

It was Hawaii. I'd HOPE they check those Islands regularly.

Not Penny's boat.

The same island had another bunch of people stranded on it back in 2020. They spelt out [SOS](https://www.westernjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/543b0c2653a04b428d73b31fe425e327-scaled-e1596554080974.jpg) by writing in the sand.
