Can you get thrown off a cruise?

So in the midst of surfing the web and reading some various twilight parody blogs, which are all pretty hilarious in my book, I came across this little gem: http://www.twilightfanscruise.com/

Thats right. Its a cruise. For twilight fans.

*Insert crazy smile here* A floating convention of twi-hards if you will. A week long extravaganza of all things Twilight! And with a low starting price of only $1299* per person you too can join in the fun this august!
*Price does not include taxes or transportation to/from Seattle. Additional fees and deposits may apply depending on age. All rates subject to change.

Also if you choose for an extra $399+ you can spend 3 wonderful pre-cruise days touring the quaint town of Forks, WA. 
You know I bet the Forks townsfolk just love Ms. Meyer, their town is an instant tourist trap now. I'd so be taking advantage of that, have a B&B with Twilight decorated rooms and complimentary pop-tarts breakfast, special tours around town with a focus on some random meadow that I found, brochures for cliff diving and motorcycle classes in my souvenir shop that sells shoelaces and dreamcatchers with an attached little cafe serving today's special of mushroom ravioli! Oh apologies as I digress but man would I make some good money.

But anyway here's the thing: I so want to do this. I want to go on that cruise. Why, you ask, would I ever consider such a thing? Because..
I would have the time of my life. I would have so much fun blogging the entire thing. I would write a book on all the craziness I would see. No doubt in my mind...get a bunch of Twilight fans together there will be crazy things happening on those seas. Getting into debates with the twi-moms (Oh yeah you know there's a bunch of them going) over the definition of true love and why they should not be encouraging their daughters in this but rather teaching them about real life. Counting how many people brought along their Manllows. Watching girls crying over posters after having them signed as they clutch their twilight books in absolute happiness. Seeing an entire group of various generations in a downward spiral of stupidity over a fictional character and thinking seriously..what the crap??

I would make it a personal challenge to see how many people I could upset. I would wear my Sparkle Out and Buffy staked Edward t-shirts just to see how close to getting lynched I could get.

It would be epic. I would get thrown off the boat, I know this. I would make that a cruise no one would ever forget.

Sigh...Alas...I am too broke to enjoy such a thing. Instead I shall dream of the fun I could have.
But I wonder if they're hiring. Hmmm...

  1. wow it would be like going on a Star Trek cruise only better because most of the people going on the Twilight cruise would be hormone raging teen and tween girls...and I'm sure walking around with a cruise full of people who want to pretend their vampires is much better than Trekkies!
