I'd do a European one that stopped at multiple ports for a couple days each, but yeah I don't really see the point of being cooped up on the ship for most of your vacation. Just fly to an island at that point.
Old people like it. You have nothing to worry about, you have many restaurants, a place to sleep, a pool, shops, daily shows, etc...Then, occasionnally, you stop somewhere and visit shit. There's nothing to organize, you don't have to care about a single thing, and it's a good way to meet other old people and have some kind of social interaction.
I'm climbs up mountains, uses a tank of oxygen and risks death to dive shipwrecks, wastes a day making a half pound of cheese at home white and I find the idea of cruises fricking disgusting.
It's only white people and blacks
Blacks will basically only go on cruises and never vacation anywhere else
Black people hate the ocean, the frick you talking about?
Black ghetto hoodrats love it because you get to scrape up a few pennies to afford a ticket where you get unlimited drinks, buffets, and public pools to go to a carribean shithole for a couple of days. Beyond that you don't need to plan anything out which we all know blacks can't do. If you anons plan on going on a cruise save for like an entire year to get the most expensive cruise you possibly can to filter those homies out.
This is the truth. I got invited on a cruise once.
They literally played Black Panther on the deck at 11pm. I wish I could say I was joking.
Look into the most expensive cruise possible, or just don't fricking do it because it's a shitty floating hotel. Buy a plane ticket instead and rent a boat for the same price.
it's basically just a status thing, you need to be able to take lots of days off from work and these things are expensive. it's just to show that you have made it in life
Sure nigs aren't very good with ships when you see who discovered the main islands off their coasts : Cape Verde discovered by he portuguese, Madagascar and the Comoros by the indonesians. 200,000 years on that continent...
this tbqh. Why would being on a fricking boat magically make mundane everyday shit somehow better?
If you were actually visiting different locations that'd be one thing, but I don't get the point where just the fricking McDonalds-tier boat itself is supposed to be the main draw.
Oh wow I get to go to an impoverished island where locals try to sell me bracelets and then two days later I can go to an impoverished island where locals try to sell me bracelets.
When I vacation, I don't dick around with "travelling." I go to an all-inclusive, get the Plus package, and never leave the resort.
FRICK sightseeing. Once I went snorkeling in Cuba but that was only because you could do it from the resort beach.
I've been on a few cruises in my life. They're there on like the 3rd level. Before you debark, there's a whole mandatory safety exercise with everybody on board that tells you your "muster station". In case of emergency and where your cabin is, you'll go to the closest one designated and they go over all the safety things like life jackets and which boat you're getting in. Takes like a half hour. Which is gay because I just wanted to start drinking right when I got through customs.
Usually the way it goes is people can get good prices if they want to room in a little prison cell and do the basics, but then pay more and more for decent living space and experiences.
I was a bartender and they were in town for a conference and they kept buying me a third shot every time they ordered a round and eventually I got an invite to their hotel room after I closed.
I will admit the one that was hotter was the least into the whole deal but she still followed through.
You've got to remember how fricking big that ship is. Those lifeboats are fully enclosed and can hold several hundred people each. You don't need that many of those to handle the entire manifest.
>4 lifeboats total
um bros...? those are big lifeboats but surely you can't fit 6,000 people onto 4 fricking dinky ass ferry sized lifeboats.
Only one basketball court? That's a logistical nightmare
it's a logistical nightmare to even have one on board. You know what types it'll attract. For this reason I'm typically against having basketball courts even on land in my general vicinity. Tennis courts and golf courses are fine.
>bowling a perfect game >hit wave, ship tilts

the idea of it seems cool, but yeah, I just know they'd be the most disgusting goysloppers you can imagine. But a hypothetical cruise with nice people aboard would be pretty fun.
Greta would probably say that putting all of the rich people who opposed her Green New Deal on the new titanic was a good idea, after it slams into an iceberg all over again or mysteriously gets hit by a falling Chinese (or Russian) satellite or even a Russian missile or a rogue Ukrainian missile.

Does anyone remember what happened with those hospital ships sent to New York?
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/nearly-90-of-coronavirus-patients-on-ventilators-die-in-new-yorks-health-system-study
Or New York saying they need thousands of more ventilators?
I just remember that they purposely killed those people to make COVID seem worth shutting down the entire country and making mail-in ballots necessary. No one uses or needs ventilators for COVID.
>No one uses or needs ventilators for COVID.
They do for severe cases. Even my cousin who worked at a more rural hospital saw patients needed respirators.
I still agree that politicians fricked over the sick and hopsitals just to drive up the death toll to make Trump look bad. Well. That and sheer ineptness. We have the CDC and government in general for outbreaks like this and they bungled it. Again, partly to make the sitting president look bad and partly because they poorly executed plans. The virus isnt even that bad compared to other shit China and other governments ha e in their biowea... er... medical preparedness labs.
God imagine the loss of life and chaos to this industry if some terror organisation launched a surface to water or water to water missile at something like this in the Mediterranean or Caribbean.
I’ve always wondered why didn’t terrorist target cruises. There was the Achille Lauro a while ago but those idiots wanted to hijack it and held the passengers as hostages.
I’m talking about just sinking from within or by approaching it from afar and RPG the shit out of it. The firepower won’t even do most of the damage: the panicked masses will.

it's about the volume of water you displace compared to your weight, in other words it's about your density compared to the density of water >Ships can be built of steel (density = 9.0 g/cm3), as long as they have large, hollow hulls because the density of the air in the hulls is very low (0.0012 g/cm3). A hollow hull ensures that the average density of the ship is less than that of water.
You on the other hand are full of meat, bones and fat and not very much air so you are quite dense
For some reason women have been conditioned to love cruises. They get all hyped and drag the family along. I dug my heels in and refused to ever go on a cruise.
homie just thread water. you can do that shit for hours
I've once spent 3 hours just fricking around in the water on vacation, and that wasnt just threading water, that shit was swimming around having fun while doing it
>what is suction
The massive sinking ship is gonna take you down with it if you're in the water anywhere near it, brainlet. Besides, the MS Estonia sank in cold nordic september waters in the middle of the night. No one could last long in such conditions.
>oh no, i might get dragged down a meters, I could never swim back up
you had enough time to swim away from the ship genious. And the water wasnt that cold.
11 months ago
Anonymous
>you had enough time to swim away from the ship genious.
lol >And the water wasnt that cold.
LMAO
Hypothermia killed most of those who didn't drown. Stop trying to make up shit.
the vast majority of people in a situation like that dont know how bad it really is and don't think they're in too much danger. We have the benefit of hindsight, but being woken up by an alarm at 1am with only 10 minutes to live without you even knowing wtf is going on isn't really an ideal circumstance.
>they only found 94 bodies
The ship was full of corpses so divers weren’t allowed anywhere near it now. There is a video on YouTube of an official dive where you can see one of the bodies. Scary stuff.
If the ship tilts and sinks fast enough, you're fricked no matter what if you're deep inside it. If it goes down slowly, you can comfortably make it to a lifeboat. No need for your own raft.
My great uncle is still down there somewhere in the wreck of the Estonia. My stomach turns itself over when I try to imagine what he must've experienced.
>My stomach turns itself over when I try to imagine what he must've experienced.
do you ever feel guilty for being comfortable in bed when you think of things like that? It happens to me all the time
Cruises are the gayest thing for trashy people; I know there are a few very high end companies that price nogs and white trash out but they are still trashy, just well off- that's the beauty of America, you can be a trashy moron and still be rich
why can't they just enforce a dress code or something and keep prices reasonable?
My one regret in life is not working for a cruise ship. Apparently its a total frick fest for the employees. everyone fricks everyone. the pay isnt too bad too unless you're from a shithole country.
maybe I should do it but odds are it still wouldn't work for me
Making trashy people dress nice won't make them any less trashy, they'll still act like dipshits - if you don't want them on your cruise your only real option is pricing them out
My point is that trashy people won't dress nice. Do you think that they'll go on a cruise if there's no basketball court and they can't wear their jays or whatever? Some might but it seems unlikely
>dress code or something
Kek you've ignored the past 60 years of American capitalism. Of course greedy israelites are gonna extort you to have nice neighborhoods/schools/beaches/restaurants instead of letting you put up a cheap "no blacks" sign and keep the fruits of your labor.
yeah, as I was posting initially I realized that if they could do that, why not just raise the prices anyway. sad state of affairs, really.
>why can't they just enforce a dress code or something and keep prices reasonable?
There are some companies that do that. Cunard I think out of the UK has dress codes and as a result attracts a different kind of crowd than your run of the mill Carnival cruise.

It's me, your great uncle. I never told anyone this but there is a secret family fortune. Recover my body and return me to my beloved.. I will reward you with riches..
>The survivors of the shipwreck were mostly young males with strong constitutions. Seven over 55 years of age survived and there were no survivors under age 12. About 650 people were still inside the ship when it sank.
🙁
getting bent is a function of dissolved gasses in your blood. It takes time for that stuff to accumulate so if it sinks quickly even very deep and you somehow manage to make it topside you could feasibly surface from hundreds of feet deep with zero decomp issues. Now this is of course ignoring other barotrauma injuries associated with those depths, but if your only concern is decompression sickness that's about the last thing you need to be worrying about.
was it this sinking that survivors were talking about how fast societal norms broke down and it was everyone for themselves and only the strong made it? I vaguely remember people having to climb to the deck or something

I find it funny how people are so obsessed with the Titanic that they just associate anything related to the ocean or ships with it. As if it was the only big ship that ever sunk, or as if every other big ship is damned to sink just like it did.
We joked about going out to sea "for a cruise" when I was stationed on an aircraft carrier, but I'd rather go on another 7 month deployment in the gulf than a 2 week cruise on that. Plus there's more gay sex and we were bombing brown people.
actually there was less gay sex than you'd expect because there was a couple hundred women on board and 90% of them would be up for a quickie in a vent space. Only true gays were having a go ay buttsex. Subgays on the other hand, they say 100 single sailors submerge and 50 couples come back up.
The royal carribbean ship I went on a few years ago was already fricking massive. I love big ships but this seems a little excessive especially since the design is ugly.
It's so big that a storm won't mess with it. Tsunami, I assume they just stay away from them.
Same deal with airplanes. You can fly your big jumbo jet in storms that you barely feel that will make a cessna bounce around like a motherfricker. But no one flies in wind shear.
I've been on a cruise and it was shit. Food was bad, everywhere smelled of booze, the interior decoration is extremely trashy, most passengers are old people. The only good good parts were sitting in my cabin and admiring the coastline and seeing the boat itself because it's actually impressive how fricking huge it is when you see it in person, pictures really don't do it justice. Overall, i very much would not recommend it.
I think man made climate change is a hoax but cruise ships of this size should be banned because they run on crude oil and dump insane amounts of garbage into the ocean. Funny how the climate activists care so much about our cars yet never mention the cruise and cargo ships destroying the ocean
So I'm a fat frick who hasn't gone on a vacation in ages. On a cruise I just like eat a bunch of food and swim and enjoy light entertainment, right? That sounds perfect
>On a cruise I just like eat a bunch of food and swim and enjoy light entertainment, right?
That and get drunk. If you don't mind screaming kids running around you can have the experience for really not that much money.

I will never understand the appeal of going on a cruise. Some real white people shit.
It's only white people and blacks
Blacks will basically only go on cruises and never vacation anywhere else
Black people hate the ocean, the frick you talking about?
Why would black people ever get on boats again? Look how badly it screwed things up for everyone the last time they did that.
They desperately, desperately want to go back to being slaves
If only. It would be a containment cell for those morons
I'd do a European one that stopped at multiple ports for a couple days each, but yeah I don't really see the point of being cooped up on the ship for most of your vacation. Just fly to an island at that point.
its fun and relaxing
its basically like being on a little town that ferries you to exotic locations
>exotic locations
Like where? Some resort on a dump of an island where the locals live in abject poverty?
yes, the bahamas
You can't see the abject poverty from the resort.
yes but the beach water is crystal clear
Anyone who goes on this shit deserves to fricking drowned, bunch of fat dipshit cattle with nothing to offer but pollution.
Old people like it. You have nothing to worry about, you have many restaurants, a place to sleep, a pool, shops, daily shows, etc...Then, occasionnally, you stop somewhere and visit shit. There's nothing to organize, you don't have to care about a single thing, and it's a good way to meet other old people and have some kind of social interaction.
>Some real white people shit.
frick off you fricking Black personm you cant understand the joy of the water because you cant swim
You can enjoy water without going on a shitty cruise.
I'm climbs up mountains, uses a tank of oxygen and risks death to dive shipwrecks, wastes a day making a half pound of cheese at home white and I find the idea of cruises fricking disgusting.

Black ghetto hoodrats love it because you get to scrape up a few pennies to afford a ticket where you get unlimited drinks, buffets, and public pools to go to a carribean shithole for a couple of days. Beyond that you don't need to plan anything out which we all know blacks can't do. If you anons plan on going on a cruise save for like an entire year to get the most expensive cruise you possibly can to filter those homies out.

Aren't the women on cruises all married or else literally geriatric?

Yes, but are they hot, that's the big question

>bow is off rimits
Always hated this on charters and cruise ships. Much better to just take your own for this reason.
Seriously, how many lifeboats do you need to have to evacuate 8k people? I see just a few
The ship itself can transform into its own lifeboat.
t. Literally the designers of the Titanic
Who needs em. That thing is too big to fail.
Modern ships don't sink.
the Costa Concordia says hi

Costa Concordia was built in the 80s
And you think cruise ships have changed considerably since then?
They were better at making movies in the 80's. Why not boats?
Tell that to the Costa Concordia.
It's by Mexicans, I ashore you, they can.
You've got to remember how fricking big that ship is. Those lifeboats are fully enclosed and can hold several hundred people each. You don't need that many of those to handle the entire manifest.
>can hold several hundred people each
the irish don't need lifeboats
It wasn't operating in that photo
Why do they keep getting uglier?
they're made for plebs now, nothing like the richgay cruises like the titanic where the third class of irish subhumans was locked below decks
On the Titanic even the third class ate fairly well for being poor micks and other yurotrash.
Christ they're eating better than the modern day middle class
>vegan eggs

WHAT'S SEA SICKNESS LIKE ON SUCH A VESSEL?
DOES IT BEING SO BIG MEAN YOU WONT GET SEAS SICK?
The bigger a boat gets, the less it rocks and so
less chance of getting seasick.

It breaks apart and sinks. But they avoid all that shit, for the most part

Accurate.
it's about the volume of water you displace compared to your weight, in other words it's about your density compared to the density of water
>Ships can be built of steel (density = 9.0 g/cm3), as long as they have large, hollow hulls because the density of the air in the hulls is very low (0.0012 g/cm3). A hollow hull ensures that the average density of the ship is less than that of water.
You on the other hand are full of meat, bones and fat and not very much air so you are quite dense
I’d love to see a titanic remake with one of these
Would be kino seeing that at the bottom of the ocean
Thats a lot of factors that can go wrong. With that many people there is gonna be an emergency like every day.
For some reason women have been conditioned to love cruises. They get all hyped and drag the family along. I dug my heels in and refused to ever go on a cruise.
The sinking of the MS Estonia was way more terrifying than that of the Titanic. Most of the people on the ship had no chance.
Estonia was actually sunk on purpose too unlike the titanic. Really weird stuff
>unlike the titanic
take a look at the passenger manifest and then cross reference with notable opponents of the federal reserve system
>rich people on fancy ship
>must be a conspiracy
Stfu schizo
Fricking hell. Everyone who happened to be in their cabin was doomed to die with the ship tilting that fast.
how can you not get to side rail in under 26 minutes and just jump off
The water had flooded most compartments in 10 minutes
And die in the water? Great plan.
homie just thread water. you can do that shit for hours
I've once spent 3 hours just fricking around in the water on vacation, and that wasnt just threading water, that shit was swimming around having fun while doing it
>dude just tread water in the flooded cabin you woke upside down in
we're talking about if you made it to the deck and got into the water you dumbass
Stop retconning your post
>what is suction
The massive sinking ship is gonna take you down with it if you're in the water anywhere near it, brainlet. Besides, the MS Estonia sank in cold nordic september waters in the middle of the night. No one could last long in such conditions.
>oh no, i might get dragged down a meters, I could never swim back up
you had enough time to swim away from the ship genious. And the water wasnt that cold.
>you had enough time to swim away from the ship genious.
lol
>And the water wasnt that cold.
LMAO
Hypothermia killed most of those who didn't drown. Stop trying to make up shit.
just do the cold plunge breathing techniques
Half of those that got off the vessel died of hypothermia from the cold sea.
the vast majority of people in a situation like that dont know how bad it really is and don't think they're in too much danger. We have the benefit of hindsight, but being woken up by an alarm at 1am with only 10 minutes to live without you even knowing wtf is going on isn't really an ideal circumstance.
>they only found 94 bodies
The ship was full of corpses so divers weren’t allowed anywhere near it now. There is a video on YouTube of an official dive where you can see one of the bodies. Scary stuff.
Makes me wonder, is there anything stopping you from taking your own inflatable raft on a cruise? You can take parachutes onto planes
If the ship tilts and sinks fast enough, you're fricked no matter what if you're deep inside it. If it goes down slowly, you can comfortably make it to a lifeboat. No need for your own raft.
What about your own scuba gear
a wet suit and a pair of fins and you're set tbh
Yes, apparently it's allowed on some cruises.
Good luck trying to navigate yourself out of there in darkness below deck
>what is a flashlight/headlamp
My great uncle is still down there somewhere in the wreck of the Estonia. My stomach turns itself over when I try to imagine what he must've experienced.
>My stomach turns itself over when I try to imagine what he must've experienced.
do you ever feel guilty for being comfortable in bed when you think of things like that? It happens to me all the time
why can't they just enforce a dress code or something and keep prices reasonable?
maybe I should do it but odds are it still wouldn't work for me
Making trashy people dress nice won't make them any less trashy, they'll still act like dipshits - if you don't want them on your cruise your only real option is pricing them out
My point is that trashy people won't dress nice. Do you think that they'll go on a cruise if there's no basketball court and they can't wear their jays or whatever? Some might but it seems unlikely
yeah, as I was posting initially I realized that if they could do that, why not just raise the prices anyway. sad state of affairs, really.
that does sound pretty nice.
>why can't they just enforce a dress code or something and keep prices reasonable?
There are some companies that do that. Cunard I think out of the UK has dress codes and as a result attracts a different kind of crowd than your run of the mill Carnival cruise.
>dress code or something
Kek you've ignored the past 60 years of American capitalism. Of course greedy israelites are gonna extort you to have nice neighborhoods/schools/beaches/restaurants instead of letting you put up a cheap "no blacks" sign and keep the fruits of your labor.
It's me, your great uncle. I never told anyone this but there is a secret family fortune. Recover my body and return me to my beloved.. I will reward you with riches..
>The survivors of the shipwreck were mostly young males with strong constitutions. Seven over 55 years of age survived and there were no survivors under age 12. About 650 people were still inside the ship when it sank.
🙁
Me inside sleeping
stairs of death
Would destroy those milfs
How far down does it sink before you're fricked even if you can get out and swim to surface because you'll just die of decompression sickness?
If the ship is completely under the surface, you won't make it out anymore.
getting bent is a function of dissolved gasses in your blood. It takes time for that stuff to accumulate so if it sinks quickly even very deep and you somehow manage to make it topside you could feasibly surface from hundreds of feet deep with zero decomp issues. Now this is of course ignoring other barotrauma injuries associated with those depths, but if your only concern is decompression sickness that's about the last thing you need to be worrying about.
>and swim to surface
How long can you hold your breath, anon?
3 minutes. Longer if I’m practiced up. Of course, that’s when I’m not panicking.
The Ourang Medan is the scariest boat disaster.
>no actual proof that the ship ever existed or that the incident ever actually happened
Nice urban legend, bro.
Reminder that a swedish submarine sank the estonia and a swedish dredger covered the wreck with gravel to hide this
was it this sinking that survivors were talking about how fast societal norms broke down and it was everyone for themselves and only the strong made it? I vaguely remember people having to climb to the deck or something
Cruises are the gayest thing for trashy people; I know there are a few very high end companies that price nogs and white trash out but they are still trashy, just well off- that's the beauty of America, you can be a trashy moron and still be rich
Damn that's a big ass
euros are so fricking stupid
My one regret in life is not working for a cruise ship. Apparently its a total frick fest for the employees. everyone fricks everyone. the pay isnt too bad too unless you're from a shithole country.
Wayyy too crowded, part of the appeal of a cruise to me is to get away from people, not get crammed into a floating Kowloon.
>Sails into a storm
You could get the same experiences renting a slip n slide, buying two handles of vodka and inviting everyone in the neighborhood over.
imagine the smell of americans
>euro cruise line
>Americans
This is how stupid non Americans are. Remember that.
Looks like a disney kowloon walled city
In other words peak /comfy/
Titanic wasn't a cruise ship it was an ocean liner
only cruise I could see myself on would be on a real ocean liner and making the transatlantic voyage
Wow nothing but ocean sitting around in your cabin for a few days until you pull into a soulless industrial port city.
that sounds much better than being stuck on a floating theme park for the same number of days
This thing actually looks bigger than the supposed biggest ship ever in op pic
Where does it say its the biggest ship ever son?
Well it says it's 5 times larger than a Titanic, I thought them boasting about it's size means it broke a new record or something.
Camera angles.
The Icon of the Seas is still larger than the Queen Mary 2.
QM2 displaces 150 000 tons
IotS displaces 250 000 tons
However QM2 was the biggest in the world when it launched in 2003
>40 bowling alleys
>doesn't use an Oxford comma
Yeah, nice Twatter post.
They don't need an Oxford comma in international waters, bong boy.
How many football fields is the Titanic?
I find it funny how people are so obsessed with the Titanic that they just associate anything related to the ocean or ships with it. As if it was the only big ship that ever sunk, or as if every other big ship is damned to sink just like it did.
Sorry should it brief measured in Britannias?
You obviously know why it's the case anon.
it's by far the most famous and constantly brought up
It's the big fricking meme boat dude of course there's gonna be references to it from now until the end of time in western nations.
We joked about going out to sea "for a cruise" when I was stationed on an aircraft carrier, but I'd rather go on another 7 month deployment in the gulf than a 2 week cruise on that. Plus there's more gay sex and we were bombing brown people.
Did you do gay sex because that's pretty gay
actually there was less gay sex than you'd expect because there was a couple hundred women on board and 90% of them would be up for a quickie in a vent space. Only true gays were having a go ay buttsex. Subgays on the other hand, they say 100 single sailors submerge and 50 couples come back up.
Waterslides, cooooollll
>the waterslide that ends out the side of the ship
The royal carribbean ship I went on a few years ago was already fricking massive. I love big ships but this seems a little excessive especially since the design is ugly.
>5 times bigger than the Titanic
we're gonna need a bigger berg
jim needs to set it up
who would unironically ever have the thought to put a water park on a boat though
>boat
Yeah and I call them "its" and not "shes" got a problem Black person?
>not gendering your ships
Soulless
Why not? Salt water fricking sucks, it sticks to your skin and its full of sharks and jellyfish and shit.
How much food can the ship store for 5000 people?
Not just 5000 people, 5000 Americans. It probably has to have food flown out every day
>fresh food frightens and confuses the Europoor
A frickton, and they resupply everytime they make port anyway.
What if someone pees in the pool?
Does anyone know how the frick they filmed this shot? https://youtu.be/YaqHmmqqNf8?t=42
I've wondered since I was a kid
I'm sure based Emma will make a video about it when it sets sail.
As a footgay and nailgay in general I love vacationing because ALL women have both hands and feet in top-notch condition.
I’ll give her my pepsi can if you know what I mean
How does it survive a storm or tsunami? moronic question but still
It's too big to fail
It's so big that a storm won't mess with it. Tsunami, I assume they just stay away from them.
Same deal with airplanes. You can fly your big jumbo jet in storms that you barely feel that will make a cessna bounce around like a motherfricker. But no one flies in wind shear.
Tsunami are a coastal issue
everyone gets on the bridge and they sail straight into the tsunami wave and go through it
This looks like the beginning of a horror movie. I wouldn't get on that if you paid me.
How braindead do you have to be to enjoy this pigpen?
Sounds like hell on earth. Wonder how many old people it'll kill? Hope the freezers are large.
The exhibit had a whole bunch of scale models.
Space Battleship Titanic - The New Adventures of the Next Generations! Season 5 Pt 6. vol.3. Issue No.1.
israeli Icon of the seas
Even some parts from the wreck of the Andrea Doria.
Imagine this but all 5610 passengers know each other.
They even had a deck chair from the Titanic that had eventually washed up on shore.
>mfw more deckchairs survived than men
Well sure, they float better and don't get hypothermic.
If you like botes there's a titanic museum in belfast
wonder if it was one of the chairs the drunk baker threw overboard
Has anyone here ever gone on a cruise that wasn't 2 weeks of goyslop?
Those slides look fun
I've been on a cruise and it was shit. Food was bad, everywhere smelled of booze, the interior decoration is extremely trashy, most passengers are old people. The only good good parts were sitting in my cabin and admiring the coastline and seeing the boat itself because it's actually impressive how fricking huge it is when you see it in person, pictures really don't do it justice. Overall, i very much would not recommend it.
Free booze tho?
No, not really. You had to pay for booze, and it wasn't cheap.
Why didn't you have sex with a passenger?
Maybe he's not into GILFs.
theres been thousands of ships bigger than the titanic
How the frick does that even float? It looks too heavy.
imagine accidentally dropping your cell phone over the edge
If elites really cared about CO2 emissions we would ban cruise ships. The amount of fuel they consume is unimaginable.
Nuclear Cruise Ships WHEN?
It's extremely difficult to get clearance to build a commercial nuclear ship so most likely never
You're actually right.
Every car in Europe combined pollutes less than like 10 cruisers.
It's over the ocean which releases more CO2 than all humanity will in a lifetime.
Do NOT tell Greta about the bathypelagic methane vents
I've already accepted that anyone crying about global warming is either a moron or a scientist trying to scam the government for more money
I think man made climate change is a hoax but cruise ships of this size should be banned because they run on crude oil and dump insane amounts of garbage into the ocean. Funny how the climate activists care so much about our cars yet never mention the cruise and cargo ships destroying the ocean
Anon, there's a ton of shit already in the ocean far worse than crude oil
Probably be a lot of cutes on board, sexo!
Plus, you know, The Implication.
The thing that scars me most about a sinking ship is the swell as it goes under
I don't understand a cruise. Is it way cheaper to do it at sea instead of just visiting six flags for 3 weeks?
I don't get it.
It's a hotel with facilities thst takes you between tourist destinations
Imagine the smell
So I'm a fat frick who hasn't gone on a vacation in ages. On a cruise I just like eat a bunch of food and swim and enjoy light entertainment, right? That sounds perfect
>On a cruise I just like eat a bunch of food and swim and enjoy light entertainment, right?
That and get drunk. If you don't mind screaming kids running around you can have the experience for really not that much money.
The crew will stop you if you just keep eating.
Let them try.
no they won't.
you know how cheap buffet food is?
>mountain tops, 500 year old churches/towers, wooden boats, jungles, caves
no problem
>skyscraper, cruiseships, rollercoasters, tunnels
immediate dread
why
Because the latter are not 500 years old
this is what i tell myself but i am pretty sure structures don't gain stability the longer they stand
anywho, i'd much rather die in a collapsed cathedral than some faceless steel and glass tower
