Australian billionaire: Titanic II to sail in 2016

[Marvolo]

Because the people on the Hindenburg were NAZIS. Nobody wants to watch a story with NAZIS as the protagonists.
Frankly, anybody who calls the the Hindenburg incident a disaster, or a tragedy is an anti-Semite and a Neonazi.

 

[Shemtov]

I'm Jewish, and the loss of life suffered during the Hindenburg DISASTER, IS and FOREVER WILL BE. Tragic. All life is precious. *****e.

But.....it had swastikas on its fins.

Damn near everything in Germany and invaded countries had swastikas on it. It was the mark of the occupying army and controlling government. It doesn't mean the airship was a private Nazi only cruiser. Research is your friend.

Dudes and Dudettes, please, can you learn how to take a joke?

Actually, ironically, the president of the Zeppelin company was known for his anti-Nazi sentiment. He actually refused to rename the Zeppelin that would become the Hindenburg, the Adolf Hitler. They destroyed him for that (well that and all the other stuff he said about the Nazis and Hitler). He was understandably miffed when they put swastikas on his airships.

When its presented as such or is actually funny. This is why we have sarcasm smilies, and phrases such as lol, lmao, hehe, jk etc. Its hard to infer you are joking when you write a statement of blatant idiocy in a deadpan serious way.

It was funnier when it wasn't a joke.

Coming from someone else, I might believe that. But you have, shall we say, a history of abusing Godwin's law. As a Jew myself, I'm embarrassed when I see you proclaiming the UN is a Nazi organization or implying everyone on the Hindenburg deserved their fate. You act like you own being Jewish and that gives you the right to play that card at every opportunity. I'd compare my embarrassment at seeing your posts to being a black poster and having to constantly endure the ravings of a Black Panther.

As long as no one says "God himself couldn't sink this ship" I think everything will be fine.

Irony is what killed the last Titanic, not an iceberg.

Isn't this already just bathing in a similar hubris?

....pwned

 

[Thundercrack85]

Wait, how is the UN a Nazi organization?

 

[Hound55]

This idea is tacky.

Well, yeah... It's Clive Palmer...

IF it was a joke, that's what happens when you don't add the

Anyway, the Titanic II is something I don't think I'd be safe on. I'd feel as though I'd freakout if I see an iceberg.

heath ledger was the greatest joker of all time

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Well of course. Ledger's jokes were hilarious.

Like that magic trick he did.

It will of course probably be extremely expensive to travel that cruise, as it was on the original ship. But even lots of people who can afford it might have second thoughts of this, at least that's what I assume?

Personally I'd just think it would feel awkward. Some kind of museum though, perhaps including interior parts of the ship rebuilt could've been interesting.

 

[Manic]

You know what? If I had the money and time, I'd totally book a cruise on this ship. Unlike the original Titanic, this new one will likely have a handy little invention they call "radar." Not to mention there are quicker and more efficient ways to signal for help and for help to arrive. I also imagine they'd put more lifeboats on it this time around. Even if something did go wrong and I died, my dying wish would be for Kenan Thompson to play me in the film.

I've been fascinated by the Titanic since I watched the movie. I was 7 when that came out and it had quite the impact on me. So for me this cruise would be really cool if it was visually authentic inside and out and had a museum and historical facts spread throughout the ship. Otherwise it would be a waste of money for me.

Three things:
A. I basically retracted that in my apology to you.
B.It was an exaggeration, meant to make a political point. It was a really dumb way to make the point.
C. You said, and I quote: "Let's just forget [about] it.".
