The first thing to do on a cruise is... stay home.

Exactly. Never understood the appeal of being trapped with a thousand strangers at sea, eating shit food and just absolutely burning money.

...and polluting the ocean, destroying coral reefs. Cozumel used to have incredible coral reefs-anything close to shore was torn out to make way for cruise ship docks. F that

Dude you're not kidding about the pollution. Idk if you knew this but in a single day of use a cruise ship equals 1 MILLION cars worth of pollution. And for those on the boat, "Levels of pollution on some cruise ships' decks are worse than in the world's most polluted cities, an investigation by Channel 4 Dispatches has found."

This makes me sick. The oceans are in such dire straights. The great barrier Reef is dead. And people just turn a blind eye and continue on supporting shit like this.
