Wait, a cruise? I love these guys’ comedy but they have shitty taste in travelling/leisure.

I’ve done the Jonathan Coulton version of this, and it’s pretty great. John Hodgman wrote about it in a chapter titled “A Totally Fun Thing That I Would Do Again As Soon As Possible” in his most recent book, That is All.

A comedy cruise sounds great! But here is something you should know, Xeni. Remember that whole Onion “See you next Tuesday” incident? Guess who is on the “Get over it!” side? None other than America’s Radio Sweetheart, Mr. Jesse Thorn: https://twitter.com/JesseThorn/status/306090536333352961

This definitely looks like another supposedly fun thing that I’d never do again.

Then there you are on your stricken ship, clutching your poop-bag, thinking things can’t get any worse…

Until you hear the dreaded cry… “pillow fight!”

Oh sure, a “Comedy Cruise” is all laughs and giggles… until you have to poop in a bag.

do the comedians still work if the ship loses power?

Of course I’d rather listen to his amazing music, but I just realized… I’d totally pay money just to listen to John Darnielle talking for a couple hours.

Just think of all the awesome variations of movie/tv plot-lines that could feature that setting and that cast.
