It’s a Cast Away (2000) reference. Bruce Willis is stranded on an island and paints a volleyball that he names Wilson to be his friend since he’s isolated for so long.
“Looks like all those years of marine biology paid off” as he straps homemade explosives to dolphins for his plans of taking back a cruise ship from pirates.
I don’t get it, is there I reference I don’t know?

It’s probably ported over from Reddit and a bug. The way Lemmy spoiler tags things is with ::: spoilers :::
