You Know You’re A Titanic Nut When...
No, it’s not about the blockbuster movie—it’s about the actual disaster. Not that I’m making light of it or anything... okay, okay, maybe I sort of am, but hey, if you’ve read my site, you shouldn’t be surprised at this. Don’t judge the morbid people...
You Know You’re A Titanic Nut When...
- Every time you hear the B-52s, you think of Ismay.
- You always seem to wake up around 2 in the morning, bathed in a cold sweat—a very cold sweat...
- You keep mistaking porcelain doll’s heads for children’s skulls.
- You find yourself riveted to the screen whenever something Titanic-related comes on.
- You actually got the pun in the sentence above.
- Whenever anyone asks if you’re feeling moody, you respond, “No, but I am a bit Lowe today.”
- You know all the words to “Nearer My God To Thee”—and you’re not even a Christian.
- Every time someone mentions the North Atlantic, you get that familiar sinking feeling...
- You never ask for ice in your drink. Ever.
- You can’t seem to say “left” or “right” anymore—instead, it’s “hard a’port” and “hard a’starboard”
- Port isn’t a liquor to you.
- “Alvin” isn’t a chipmunk to you.
- Refilling the ice cube tray makes you cry.
