Off a cruise and the floor still rocks for days? Mal de débarquement — your brain learned the boat so well it refuses to unlearn it. Loyalty, basically.
Send to whoever's still on the boat.
EXPLAINED (ACCURACY-CHECKED)
Mal de débarquement syndrome is a persistent perception of self-motion (rocking/swaying) after passive motion exposure (cruises, flights), attributed to maladaptive persistence of vestibular adaptation.
Established neuro-otology: mal de débarquement = persistent post-motion rocking from vestibular re-adaptation failure. Textbook-level.
