Just got back from a wonderful cruise, but cruising does attract some weird people!
I was in a lift with about ten people, crowded, but not rammed, and a Sikh lady must have trodden on the foot of a male passenger.
He shouted "Owwwwwwww!!!!" at the top of his voice, I mean really yelled it, and the poor woman was in equal parts terrified and embarrassed, you know how diffident Asian ladies can be.
Then he burst into loud laughter and shouted in her face "I bet you're awake now!!" which clearly confused the poor woman, as she obviously didn't understand his 'humour'.
We rode for eight decks in tense silence, and when the lift stopped, he shouted in her face "You'll be glad to know I'm getting off here!!" and he ambled down the corridor, laughing loudly at his own wonderful wit.
Why do people have to behave like this?
And why do cruise ships attract them?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Cruising is much different now than when we went cruising and it was basically for the upper middle class, who behaved well, dressed for dinner and I never saw any bad manners or indeed violence.
Different story today many cruise ships have been built for the hoypaloy, walkind into the dining room inappropriately dressed and lacked basic manners and courtesy.
Get what you pay for.......even today one can choice cruise lines which still maintain the traditions of old.

I went on a cruise years ago and I would never go on one ever again. I couldn't get over the greed of the guests. Two couples sat beside me at dinner and after eating and eating - they went up to fill their plates again - the food was hanging off so much - it had been fruit - the apples were rolling around the table.
that's what it is Bobbs - a floating Hotel - not for me either.
We had a terrible time the first time as the ship was sailing from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean sea and the waves were gigantic and vomit bags were placed everywhere.
I kept screaming to my friend - "This is the Titanic, Ah Jesus", we're going, going going. I said to my friend "Goodbye my love" - it was really scary - next day I saw people leaving the ship.
