Ever since Taylor Swift showed off her veritable ark of inflatable pool animals during last year's July 4th weekend, it seemed that those swans/unicorns/flamingos/various long-necked animals were everywhere.

Not one to miss out on trends, Amy Schumer joined in on the pool float fun for Memorial Day weekend -- only, true to form, it involved a good amount of flailing around.

Sure, Schumer's surroundings are way cooler than the shabby above-ground situation or $20 kiddie pool the rest of us are stuck with, but the comedian sure keeps it relatable.

Schumer recently shared a photo of herself in a one-piece bathing suit, shutting down her "trolls" with a message of body positivity. The comedian wrote that she feels "strong and healthy," thank you very much.

If you still weren't convinced that Schumer is as #awkward as she seems, the "Trainwreck" star also shared a video showing just how unglamorous it is to actually remove oneself from a trendy flamingo float.
