Details, please!

 

Are we talking TransAtlantic Cable, circling the circumference

 

or

 

Chocolate Fondue Pot?

Big long fat daddy cable that looked like it could go chocolate fondue at any slight movement.

When I posted this question I knew there were disgusting people out there but I have to admit this whole thing has far exceeded my imagination.

If people do these things in public I shudder to think about is done in private. l certainly hope some of the offenders read these comments and take note but then come to think of it, people doing these things probably don't have enough sense to think there is anything wrong in the first place.

Fine: Decrepit woman, probably not retired because she thought social security would be enough, so now she works part time in a local grocery store, scraped all her pennies together to barely afford a low-budget cruise on Carnival.

 

There: is that less offensive than "retiree"?

 

Now you can really LOL

Just remember...YOU will fit that description one day!

The woman at the pool on Conquest wearing a white bra and white underpants as a bathing suit. They were see through when she got out of the pool and lets say she was not well groomed!:eek:

 

I saw "her" on the Fascination a few years back- I don't know, but if you are going to the beach, why not pack a bathing suit? This is definitely wash and wear clothing. Pack light, swim in your undies. Gag me

C'mon. Give her a break! I'm sure she was one of those "retirees" on Social insecurity and trying to make ends meet. How can she afford a swim suit after paying for a cruise?

Fortunately she had enough left over to buy herself some nice white undies. Otherwise......!

I think y'all need to be just a little more understanding and tolerant.

Using the bathroom next to a casino dealer, who didn't bother to wash his hands before going on break. I ratted him out to the Pit Boss, resulting in an awkward time with him as my dealer soon afterwards.:o

 

Unfortunately I have seen this also.

I can't belive what I just read. Fricking gross! I have seen alot of these things, but I try to blot

them out as soon as possible to stop the gagging. That link of the lady who didnt/couldnt get out of her lounge at the pool before peeing, OMG!!!

 

From now on I am not talking to anyone, looking at anyone, touching any thing and bringing my own table tapkins to MDR. I am going to wear a surgical mask, and surgical gown, covered over by a HazMat suite, gloves, boots and my own air tank to breath with.

 

Thanks to all for bringing up everything I blotted out of my memory. I'm starting to gag, again!

:cool::loudcry::mad:

I can't bring myself to read this thread, so I don't know if something like this has been said already... but the most disgusting thing I have seen is a man wearing his sandals IN the thalassotherapy pool on the Splendor. WHY? I'm not a germophobe or I wouldn't be in a public hot tub in the first place, but the idea that he was walking all around the ship in those things (and who knows where else) and then steps right on in that lovely pool with them on.... ew. I was so grossed out.

I see a lot of complaints about people blowing their nose into napkins. Where are they supposed to blow their nose into?

How about excusing yourself and going to the washroom where there is tissue? Carry tissue in your pocket or in your purse. If you need to blow your nose, there’s a really good chance this was not the first time you needed to do it. Common sense.

I agree they should leave the restaurant to blow their nose.There is always someone who blows their nose like a trumpet which puts me off my food.

If people won't excuse themselves from the restaurant because their kid is crying, which is a huge annoyance, you think they're going to excuse themselves for blowing their nose, which is a relatively small annoyance? Not going to happen.

I agree using a napkin instead of a tissue is no big deal. The napkins are washed. Once upon a time, babies used cloth diapers and those were washed and reused too. If poop will wash out of cloth I think snot will as well. I don't think blowing into a tissue at the table would be any less obnoxious.

 

The difference between using the napkin and a tissue is that the server or dining staff unknowingly, have to handle that disgusting, snotty, germ filled napkin and most likely not wash their hands before setting up the table for the next guests. Hopefully a tissue would be put into a pocket for later disposal. But judging by the observations and comments here, that would probably make too much sense. Another reason to carry a pocket size hand gel.

I am just going to assume the wait staff washes their hands between cleaning up after the prior guest and serving the next one, snotty napkin or not. They make guests sanitize hands before entering the MDR, so they sure as heck better be sanitizing their hands too.

Curious which ships 'make guests sanitize hands' at any point on the cruise? I've never once seen anyone making any guest sanitize their hands anywhere on the ship.
