Cruise Quotes

I'm totally slacking on typing all these quotes on here. I still have to finish my old book, but I wanted to type up a few quotes that have been sitting in my draft folder for a couple months. My family and a few of our great friends (pseudo siblings) went on a Carnival Cruise to the Bahamas to celebrate my dad's retirement. It was probably the best vacation EVER. Not only was the cruise so fun in itself, but our group was so fun (and funny) to be around and it was wonderful to spend time with everyone.

So here are a few that I remembered to write down. If anyone remembers any other ones, please let me know!

BEFORE LEAVING ON THE CRUISE:

Playing a game called Masterpiece where you bid on paintings. The person with the most money and valuable paintings wins in the end. The big joke of the night was when Zane didn't want to bid higher, but he did want to bid...
Gary: "I bid $450."
Zane: "I ALSO bid $450..."

-Playing Mexican Train with Gary, Gail, Jocelyn, Zane and me... Its such a fun game, but with a lot of people it takes forever to get around the circle once. Dad was consistently taking a long time and his turn was after mine. He kept saying...
Gary: "Is it my turn again?"
Krn: "Every time after I go...YOU GO."

Still playing Mexican Train...
Zane: "I am currently experiencing no pity."


-Still in Houston- about 5 or 6 adults jumping on the trampoline with Maddie. Spencer was sitting on Sho's back...
Matt Moser: (to Maddie) "Spencer is riding Sho like a pony."

-Jocelyn and Gail were talking to Maddie and asking her which one of her 5 uncles is her favorite. She very sincerely said...
Maddie: "Matt!"
...too bad he isn't one of the choices. :)

-Stuart wanted to get to bed earlier than the rest of us, but due to the number of people in the house, he didn't have a bed. He was trying to sleep on a couch in the main upstairs game room.
Stuart: "Um...I was just wondering if there is a war-zone I could go to to get some sleep..."

Krn: "I had to stop her screaming..."
-I was talking to Janie at the kitchen table and trying to get her to guess what movie I was quoting. After a while I said...
Krn: "Clue."
-She didn't realize I had given her the answer, so she kept trying to guess and finally said,
Janie: "Oh...I don't know."

DURING THE CRUISE:

Every night around 11:00 we would go up to our designated area, eat ice-cream, and play a game with our whole group. Mafia quickly became our game of choice. It was fun to play because we all know each other pretty well, so it was interesting to try to read people's guilt and innocence. We had a few great quotes from different nights playing this game...

-Gary was being accused of being Mafia and we wanted to take a vote to kill him...
Gary: "That would be a HUGE mistake!!"

One time during Mafia, Zane was being very quiet. When we asked what he thought, he said...
Zane: "I am incredible sure right now."
the group: "Of what?"
Zane: "Nothing. That's it."

-Guy had us laughing for hours with his Bahamian/Jamaican accent. It didn't matter what he was saying, because it sounded so funny...but luckily for us, everything he was saying was hysterical too
Guy: "5 dollars off my wife. If you don't believe me ask the dishes!"

Guy: "5 dollars off...no matter the price!"

And we can never forget....SHOWTIME. ShooooowwwwwTimmmmeeee.
Our Maitre D: "THANNNNNNNNKKKKKK YOUUUUUU!" (in a singing voice)

-Playing sand volleyball at a beach in Freeport: Lots of people from the cruise and some locals joined it too. One local stopped by to play and brought a plastic cup full of rum to drink during breaks. Anytime he messed up, this is what Clay would say...
Clay: "Drink more rum, Bahama!"

-One guy we had seen a few times of the cruise was playing Vball with us as well. I was sitting on the side talking pictures when he walked up to be and set his 'water' bottle down. He had been calling it his Gatorade.
Drunk guy: "Don't drink this!"
(A waft of vodka breath slammed into my face)
Krn: "I DEFINITELY won't."

-After digging a huge hole in the sand, Clark and Zane sat in it while we filled it back up. We took some amazingly funny pictures, but problems arose when Zane couldn't get out. We all were laughing and having a good time about it, but obviously Zane was not. He was at a really bad angle and honestly was stuck.
Zane: "I'm Stuck!! FIX IT!"

-I honestly don't remember the context of this next one, but it is amazingly funny by itself.
Stuart: "If you spanked my butt right now, it would think it was a massage and it would accept its fate."

-From our awesome movie 'Ninja Fun: Pirate's Revenge" there was a scene where Zane, Clark and I are talking about how we need to rescue the princess. Clark has a line, where he pauses, but Zane accidently jumps in before Clark has finished. Zane makes it work, but Clark can barely hold it together. Of course, I am referring to...
Zane: "WHAT!? ...Yes."

-Start at 8:20 to see the original (accidental) "What? Yes."

-Another funny moment for the movie is when the Ninjas are eating lunch and talking about kidnapping the pirate princess. Janie was supposed to be in the scene too, but we couldn't find her. Stuart solved this problem by saying...
Stuart: "Why does it always feel like a ninja is missing? What's that about?"



I seriously had the best time on the cruise and it was because of all of you. Thank you for making the cruise so enjoyable and keeping me laughing everyday. :)
