I agree, we should stop the nautical theme. It is tragic what's happened in Italy, that said, jokes have been and will always be made about such events, so lets not go overboard......
Hey, have a bit of respect please. I read a story yesterday about a young girl that was raped. On the signing front, I don't think we'll get anyone in today, but hope to god we do.
Wasn't supposed to be funny at all. Just highlighting what a ridiculous thing it is censoring some innocent ship/nautical/whatever jokes when they were all made in good faith, humour and spirit. I did read a story about an unfortunate young girl yesterday. There are tragic stories in the world and news every day, most of which you probably haven't even heard of, which would render all sorts of jokes and references to be thought of as in ''ill taste''. Lets just not talk about anything at all, incase it offends someone.
This. Was going to post something on same lines but thought I would leave it to you to explain your position.
