1. I'm sure this is compelling, I just need a bigger clue than "watch and weep" to click on it. n/t

I've been on many cruises and love them--- Am I a snob? Don't think so---am I well 2 do--- I do OK...

8. it's a shame that people spend so much money this way
it looks like being stuck in a giant colossal mall with whatever number of people. OOO, but they have gambling & pools & anything you could ever dream of sticking in your mouth. You get to enjoy whatever sport you want and explore this incredibly large hunk of metal that's burning up 7,230 gallons of fuel per hour.

7,230 gallons of fuel per hour.. but NO NO wait, it's okay if I take a teeny tiny cruise ship, one that only burns up 4,000 gallons of fuel per hour :eyes:

This kinda shyt is why I gave up on humans.

4. If it's a destination by itself, why go anywhere on the damn thing.
What a prime example of conspicuous consumption by people with more money than brains.

5. The film was indeed compelling.
I hate to ask something so trivial, but what was the piece of music at the beginning?

6. How does the waste produced by this ship...
compare to two or more cruise ships with a similarly sized passenger manifest?

9. Hmm, no icebergs in the Caribbean.
Otherwise, I keep thinking "the Titanic."
