Let me just say I'm tired of hearing about that cruise ship

I got to watch the news last night. They were talking about... the cruise ship! "Oh, the food was so bad and disgusting!" the kids say. Do tell. "A sandwich with just jelly and butter. A sandwich with just cheese!" That's disgusting? I brought that sort of thing to school with me for lunch as a kid! "Oh, the bathroom smelled!"

Look, I'm sure it wasn't very pleasant, and I feel for them, but nobody died, nobody seems to have been in any medical danger (if anybody was, we haven't heard about it), nobody starved or went particularly hungry (excepting those who were on a diet, of course), and it only lasted three days.

Why are we even still talking about it? WHY IS IT STILL ON THE NEWS?

I hate to use this line, but isn't there anything more important we can discuss?

Rich old white people were involved.

I think people are pretty sick of talking about the economy, politics, and crazy people. The heartbreak of bad cheese sandwiches sounds like fun in comparison.

Cheese sandwiches? D: DO WANT! Seriously, if they don't want them, I'll happily take them!

Where are people's priorities anymore? =P

Umm... I have no idea what cruise ship this is or what happened. Although, apparently it wasn't very important, so I guess that's okay.

I dunno. Turkey and cheese sandwiches, or grilled cheese sandwiches - those sound good. Cold bread and cheese? Not so much.
