Cruise Curmudgeons of the World Unite

[iankh]

Here's are some threads I'm dying to start on the cruise board but daren't:

• Tell me about toilet seats
• Do I have to wear clothing to the dining rooms?
• Would it be OK to tip the cast members with dried fish or beads?
• Anyone else bringing their own Barcolounger with them?
• Will my second cousin twice removed's next door neighbor's friend's mother in-law like a Disney cruise?
• WTHIT OObc CC GPM discount?
• Do they have composting available on the Dream?
• Trout?

I like those, I would also add some others (a bit less esoteric than yours...):

• If no one has been in the lounge chair for 45 minutes, can I just toss their stuff overboard?
• Is there anyone who goes to Disney or on a cruise who DOESN'T have a kid with allergies?
• Is watching my child play in the kid's club all day creepy?
• How hammered can I get on my own alcohol before they throw me off the ship?

When I'm on the 10/1/11 Magic, I'll keep a log of oddities/odd objects/odd actions, etc. to post when I return. Can't wait!!!!!

We're 2 cruises behind you on the 10/15 Magic, so just leave notes sequestered around the ship and then come tell me where they are! I'll look for them, it'll be like a DCL version of the movie Frequency (awesome movie BTW) except without the whole dead father storyline.

We are on the same cruise I'm sure I'll make it to your list of either oddities or odd actions, it's just the way my life works out

We can start taking bets on how long until they really do start showing up.

Hey all! Missed you!
I LOVE the idea of kitchen gadget familiars!!! Since the coffee onboard pretty much stinks, I'm going to bring my French Press on my next cruise - I think that I shall make outfits for it & bring it everywhere!!! Mickey ears & pants - heck yes!! Only YOU GUYS will get it!! Maybe I'll even post pics - like a kitchen "Where's Waldo"!!! LOL
Love the esoteric "Tell me about" threads...
I often want to just post erroneous info in those threads!! But instead I just play devil's advocate & stir the pot... like I did on the "Another cruise line bans smoking" thread!!
Hugs to you all!!!

Speaking of kitchen gadget familiars, on our last cruise we got a big red spoon that the giver had added mickey ears to, it was awesome!!! (Yep, I'm sappy and love doing the FE and creating magnets for my door, but I put like 50 of them out there, if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing!) I now have it on my refridgerator.

So the CB inherits this thread on the 35th page???? Whose idea was THIS?

 

[Mokat76]

Actually we originally were closed on pg. 29, but our moderator reconsidered and moved us here. We appreciate that.

Welcome to our curmudgeonly group.

Aaaahhhhh....like a big shot of zoloft this thread is to me!

I had given it up for dead and was about to remove it from my bookmark bar (yep, I was that attached) when lo, and behold, there were suddenly 5 new pages!

I have been secretly working on a curmudgeon familiar. It will be in the form of a pin or pendant that I will wear faithfully on my next cruise. I will post a picture of it when it's complete so you will be able to identify me. I don't think I want it to smell like garlic. I'm more of a parmesan cheese kind of girl.

nice to read you all again

Hi there!! You might wish to rethink your parmesan familiar... I am currently renting a car while mine is in the shop. The rental has the overpowering "blueberry bathroom" scent that is used to cover up rental car stench... well, since it's been fairly hot here in CA & I left the windows rolled up when I parked, I now know what they were covering up... The car reeks of parmesan cheese!!!! YES, I am currently driving a "blueberry parmesan bathroom mobile"!!!! Eeeeeewwww!!! Stinky!!

That's all.. don't stench out the ship... I personally would prefer garlic...

There's only one proper familiar for a curmudgeon. Well, actually, there are two: Statler and Waldorf.

I guess so, if you want to stick to Disney characters, but Statler and Waldorf can't hold a candle to Walter...
