I watched Trainwreck: Poop Cruise and it confirmed to me how precious Americans are. The ship is in a state of anarchy and they were more concerned about how long they can hold out for before they needed to shit into a biohazard bag.

The highlight for me was when a crew member described the state of the dunnies. (Not verbatim) "There was poo. A layer of toilet paper. Poo. Toilet paper. Poo. It was like a lasagne.

I couldn't stop laughing. 5/5 hobbits

At bush doofs we used to call using a poo filled port-a-loo as "Mr Whippy" due to the stack.

We saw that, definitely 5/5 hobbits. How about the people taking Imodium so they didn’t poo…for days?! It’s put me off ever going on a cruise, though

If it's any consolation, that cruise caused many of the big cruises to install back up generators onboard their ships πŸ˜‚ and have secondary engine rooms!

Yeah. I would've found a dark corner somewhere instead. (Not in my cabin though)
