A skerry is a rocky islet that is typically not large enough for humans to live on. Mostly formed by glacial erosion, they’re common along the high-latitude coastlines of Norway, Iceland, and Greenland, as well as other areas of the Northern Hemisphere. The term “skerry” comes from the Old Norse word “sker,” which means “rock in the sea.”
It is not to be confused with the word “Scary” which describes what it is when a group of politicians running our country blindly follow a defeated, sociopathic, megalomaniacal liar with a bad comb over. Although, come to think of it, a skerry would be a great place to exile a scary narcissist.
