TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

question was serious.

how many centuries has fresh water been flowing into the oceans?

okay but ask yourself, where does the fresh water come from? mostly from evaporated water from the oceans. so the salt stays in the ocean, and the water evaporates, rains and flows back.

also what requia said, there's so much salt water.

Rain & snow (not salty) falls over the land.

That water flows downhill (fresh water) into the ocean (salty).

Ocean water evaporates (minus the salt) into the air.

Evaporated water condenses into clouds.

Clouds make rain and snow (not salty) that falls over the land.

Repeat.

The ocean remains salty because evaporation is removing an amount of fresh water at a near-constant rate.

Rumckle

Also, the water flowing into the ocean isn't always completely fresh (though the amount of salt will be a tiny, tiny fraction compared to the ocean).
It's not trolling, it's just satire.

AFK

Because the goddamn dinosaur wizards cast a spell on the oceans that they be forever briney.

So....pouring an electrolyte in an electrolyte solution will do what?
Table salt
sodium chloride NaCl
Baking soda
sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3

Also when you neutralize acids with a base you get a salt. Which doesn't really figure into this because the oceans are salty. Also also, the seas have a pH of roughly 8 which is basic, the opposite of acidic.

I'm also not entirely clear on what's so shitty about the oceans being salty? :?
