Friday Wisdom – Cruise Ships

Posted on 09/15/2023 by Andrew Reynolds

Heather and I are traveling soon and part of that will be on a cruise. I’ll post all the details when we return. As part of that, I’m going to be taking a vacation from posting to the blog for about a month. But before I go, here’s everything I know about cruise ships:

You can’t play cards on a cruise ship – the captain is always standing on the deck.

Did you know that the ocean doesn’t speak, it just waves.

I read that cruise ships are planning on installing trampolines. There’s going to be a lot of jumping on board.

I asked the Captain if cruise sink very often. He said, “No, usually only once.”

I was told that ships don’t take certain vegetables on board, like leeks and iceberg lettuce.

I asked a crew member what it’s like to work on a cruise ship. He said it had its ups and downs.

Did you know that fish swim in salt water because pepper makes them sneeze.

What holds up the dock? Pier pressure.

I heard that there might actually be four corners in the Bermuda Triangle. They might have to rename it to the Bermuda Wreck-Tangle.

I saw the Captain in the dining room so I went up to him and asked, “If you’re here, who’s driving the ship?”

My friend took a Spanish language course on a cruise ship. She said she got lost at si.

I’m working on a joke about the world’s fastest cruise ship. It will be a quick one liner.

“arrrr” be what pirates say. “Argg” be what a pirate says when he sits in a belaying pin.

    I liked best the one about “If you’re here, who’s driving the ship?”. Enjoy your travels!

    Let’s hope you don’t encounter pirates who’ll make you walk the plank. They do that because dogs aren’t allowed on pirate ships.

    Wreck-Tangle! I had to look up belaying pin! You’re going to be loaded with new groaners after your travels! May you have a blessed trip.
