You missed something:

Anarcho-Zealot: “Alright, how about this:

Water, water everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink,
Water, water everywhere,
And not a drop to drink.”
Do you know what that is?”

SteemPonderings: “It’s a quotation from Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s famous poem, ‘Rime of the Ancient Mariner.’"

Coleridge, yes, but the quote is incorrect:

The correct version is:

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

(from https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/43997/the-rime-of-the-ancient-mariner-text-of-1834) and my emphasis

You do also know, of course, that the idiomatic use of albatross can also be attributed to Coleridge and this poem?
