That this stuff would tangle you up and pull you under.

That's ridiculous, seaweed and seagrass can't pull you under.

It's this fucker that lives IN the seaweed and seagrass that does it.

RandMart - that is literally stuff of my nightmares.

But, this thread has been helpful, even just knowing I'm not the only one that hates the stuff. (Oh yeah, I like to eat seaweed salad, so go figure...)

After watching that Harry Potter clip I realize two things:
1) I like the underwater world and it's mythological inhabitants better than the surface world. (Those English boarding school kids are especially annoying).
2) That although triathlon swims are a lot of fun, it would be even more fun to hang out in the underwater weeds and grab triathlon swimmers as they pass above.

YES.
I WANT TO BE THAT GUY.

I am going to quit my job, give up triathlon and move in next door.
