Subject: Who's planning on riding the Titanic II?

Australian billionaire Clive Palmer is funding the construction of an exact replica of the Titanic. It should be sailing by 2016 and I know a cruise will be on my bucket list before I die. Will you sail on the ill-fated ship?

I don't want to ride something that will sink.

Talking about Sweden is an ultrabannable offense.

Too bad being completely and utterly wrong isn't a bannable offense.

As long as it's sailing through the tropical pacific.

Exact copy as in the same brittle steel the original was made of?

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded

Ladies and gentlemen, you've seen him, ya know him, ya love him, you go through a phase where you don't love him so much, yet you don't want to hurt him, so you don't dare tell him of your feelings, so you marry him, you bear his children, and you live out the rest of your days suffering from his cold and silent indifference, say hello to the OP!

Specific things will be unveiled on the 4th at New York. I'm sure they've changed things, and filled the rooms with TV's and all that good stuff. It is known there will be a casino on board, and only 840 people could be on at any given time, not the 2,200 it originally could hold. Although the overall design will be the same, and even the Menu's will stay true to what it was in 1912.

Well since I believe history is doomed to repeat itself, I'll pass.

Pass. Ship will be targeted by Palmers enemies in the QLD government and will probably be sunk by a 'freak iceberg' that suddenly appeared off Brisbane.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

The reason the Titanic sunk is because they didn't bother to build it properly. Is the Titanic II gonna be a replica of a half-assed ship?

Per Audacia Ad Astra!

I don`t know why, but this is so macabre...

I win, you lose, get over it!

As long as they sail in iceberg free areas I might consider it.

Just stay away from pirates.

  • 12.01.2012 3:42 AM PDT

No it's just a ship.

  • 12.01.2012 3:46 AM PDT

Sounds interesting, I didn't even know he was building one. Could be fun, I've never been on a cruise liner.

The Universe demands to be noticed, to be seen, and dutifully noted.

What use all those incredible firework dimensions if no eye fixes and reflects, no brain takes notes, no heart moves with passion at the display?

NASA answers the silent cry of the Cosmos for recognition.

NASA is the witness and we fellow witnesses to the endless deeps.

Gee, it's not like there's anything better to do with the money, eh? I think that actually paying his taxes first would be a good idea.

You have no idea how revolting I can be.

Only if they promise to break the "exact replica" idea by adding more lifeboats...

I don't want to sink in icy waters.

  • 12.01.2012 5:08 AM PDT

Meh. I prefer to ride boys instead

iPhone 4S 64GB Black.

Will it have updated instruments and equipment? No?

Will it have as little lifeboats as the last?

  • 12.01.2012 5:14 AM PDT

If it doesn't sink, I'll make sure it sinks.
