FUN! This cruise is FUN! You are having FUN! Everything is FUN!

[hankandteri]

Beats cruising on the Sad Ships or the Tragic Ships or the Pompous Ships or the Disagreeable Ships, don't you think? That would be another cruise line.

 

I'm all about the FUN. Go ahead, CCL, bring it.

I miss the "Beyond the Sea" advertising too. A few years ago Carnival sent me a Christmas Card that played that song when you opened it up.

Carnival is "The Fun Ships", has been since the 70s, got it. It used to be a harmless little catchphrase. We all have fun on cruises, and before we even go on the Fun Ship we fill out a Fun Pass, understood.

 

The longtime daily cruise publication known as "Carnival Capers" has been changed to "Fun Times". Plus, I can go on Carnival's website and visit "Funville", then be reassured that Carnival is indeed "All For Fun, Fun For All".

 

I feel bombarded by the word FUN in big blocky red and blue font. It's like a kids toy commercial that constantly flashes colors and yells loud exclamations about the product. I really miss the old "Beyond the Sea" advertising campaign. Partially because I like Bobby Darin, but mostly because it was understated and classy.

 

Sorry for the random musing, but it does beat another booze thread.

:D:D:D:p:p:p

 

Just the title of your post alone has me laughing hysterically. Awesome.

Understated and classy went out the window with Uncle Bob.

I know Gary, I know! It must have happened recently, they were still the good ol' Capers on Destiny back in January.

 

Was on the Triiumph last month and no more Capers! i really missed it. Also, no more Captain's Welcome Aboard Party with free drinks and food.

You are correct sir, Uncle Bob is (and will be) missed.

I think Pompous Ship (not RCCL) would be boring and stressful. We almost booked on another line this time. They had a few great islands that I wanted to visit. However, I just couldn't get excited about the more sedate ship.. Oh how exciting, let's go play croquet..:rolleyes:

 

Give me fun anytime!

I found the Family Guy YouTube clip that was the inspiration for this thread, enjoy!

I understand your point, but remember, it could be worse....

 

 

THEY COULD BRING KATHIE LEE BACK!!:eek:

[Tar Heels]

Capers changed to Fun Times ? ? ? ? :eek:. . . . this is so sick.:mad:

 

This thread is more "FUN" than a booze thread???:D

[Cruiser1547228475]

Don't talk about FUN SHIP FREDDY !:mad:

 

:D

[Cruisinini]

What a FUN thread! ...or would that be redundant for me to say that? LOL, anyway thanks for the FUN laugh! I think I've read the word FUN enough times now that it actually seems like a rather strange word...perhaps a good sign of its overuse!
