It’s Time To Play Name That Cruise!
I am, apparently, dying of what we shall call “airplane sickness” but is probably the flu. This means that I cannot effectively post anything or do anything of substance besides sit here and sweat and occasionally moan pathetically.
If this is the flu, I fully intend to sue, as I did with the Swine Flu and I expect that once again, I will win. Thank you, The People’s Court for ruling in my favorite over that fucking pig and it’s stupid virus.
But the cruise, Pranksters, well, it’s happening. I’m beyond excited that all of you are showing interest in it and Angie and I are putting together more information and we should have it all set up and neatly ready for take-off within the next couple of weeks.
We’re thinking March 2011 because March is a SHITTY ass month, but we’re not solid on dates yet.
Here’s what I CAN tell you.
You do NOT need a blog.
You do NOT need to have a POPULAR blog, if you are a blogger. Neither of us are A-listers or give a shit about that kind of thing, so don’t bother getting worried about that stuff.
You don’t even need to have an internet connection or know either of us.
You can bring your kids/spouse/family/whatever. Most ships have a daycare that you can send your crotch parasites to. Just don’t count on Your Aunt Becky to babysit. Imma be drinking heavily.
The cruise, however needs a name. So far, Angie and I have come up with: “Aunt Becky’s Family Reunion,” which is pretty awesome. But I want to see if you can do better. The “I’m On A Boat” is kinda funny, but won’t be by then. So we have to do better, y’all.
What do you think? What’s a good name? And what else do we need to do?
Aunt Becky’s Snooze Cruise
Dude. Napping on a cruise, whether it be on the pool deck or in the room, is a requirement.
I think you meant March 2011? Cause if you meant March 2010 that would be kind of funny. Everybody already missed it. You could call it the booze & Jews cruise. But you would have to find a few Jews to go on it for that one to really have a punch. Boozin’ & Cruisin’ with Becky. STFU I’m on a cruise bitch, is another one.
Bwahahaha. Yes, I meant NEXT year.
i’m a jew! that’s enough, right?
I was going to write something funny. I mean, not actually funny, not something other people find funny, but something that’d make me laugh to myself as I sit alone in my office.
Sadly, I’ve got nothing. Nada. The lonely, empty space inside the cone inside the cotton candy.
You can study the previous metaphor, it was pretty deep.
Anyway, guess I have nothing to say.
Sorry for wasting your time.
Better luck with the next comment.
How about Pranksters in Paradise or Pranksters do Paradise
Hmm… March 2010? Is this a time-machine cruise? *wink* methinks you prob meant 2011.. stupid flu.
Shit-faced, Ahoy!
I’m betting the evil flu made you type 2010 instead of 2011
Heh. Changed it. Thanks!

Well I hope you feel better and will blame that damn ICK for your date issue – you mean March 2011, right? Has to be. Sorry to be the asshole to point that out.
Anyway. That’s plenty time for me to “come out of the blog closet and tell my husband I’m going on a blog cruise” right? Plenty.
“Ship of Fools?”

“Ship of Fools?”
and i know there’s at least one song with that exact same name…could be the cruise tune!
please delete my assholeness that posted twice.
now 3x.
How about Boat of vomit. Since most ppl get sea sick and also drink wayyyyyy too much.
Along those lines…..The Barf Boat?
or Boatful of Barfin’ Bitches?
or Horkin’ A-Plenty?
I have a couple suggestions:
Bitches on a Boat
Pranksters at Sea
and I will probably come up with something brilliant the second I hit post.
I like both those suggestions as well as
Drunken Shenanigans
OMG. I came here from my Google Reader just to suggest “Pranksters at Sea”, then saw your comment!!!. Great minds think alike!
Have to say I like BB’s suggestion of “Pranksters in Paradise”. Maybe we can get Jimmy Buffet to write a theme song for us. I’m sure he could include “shut your whore mouth” and “crotch parasites” in a pleasing ditty somehow.
You’re on my “list” for mentioning Jimmy Buffet. As a native Floridian, I’ve heard a lifetime-worth of Buffet and never want to hear it again.
YOU? are on my list.
Hmm, there are a few amusing anagrams for Aunt Becky’s Prankster Cruise here are some of my favorites:
A Cab Persnickety User Trunks
A Cab Princesses Turkey Trunk
A Cab Creepier Skunks Nuts Try
A Cab Seersucker Ink Pun Tryst
Hanky panky with the pranksters?
We better get a bunch of single male bloggers on this to go. Unless we want to call it the Lez Boat. (sung, not said). Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Clarification, If we named it the hanky panky with the pranksters is what I meant lol.
I have to say I am partial to “bitches on a boat”
but to make it more blog friendly maybe
blogger bitches on a boat
Aunt Becky’s Bitches on a Boat?
A Boat of Merry Pranksters
ties in nicely with the community name…
okay….
Bitches by the Boatload…
and…I’m done.
Dude, are you ever not sick? Every time you get well, you turn around and get some illness. Get better, now. I said so.
I cannot think of names for the cruise. You could design a bedazzled, and snarkey t-shirt for everyone to wear…something along the lines of a cross between your card collection and your old cell phone, only on a shirt?
She’s always sick. ALWAYS.
Cept for last weekend on the cruise when she wasn’t which was a flippin miracle.
How about the “I don’t drink but still want to go before I stab one of my own children with the left arm I have chewed off due to extreme frustration” cruise? Just a thought. Not that I personally ever feel that way, you know.
I vote for the Family Reunion! Where are we floating?
I vote for the cruise setting sail from somewhere near Ft. Lauderdale FL.
See, that way I could drop my crotch parasite off with my folks and they could have some bonding time and totally turn her against me while I get drunk with you-all.
Sound like a plan?
My brain is fried so all I can come up with is Crusin & Boozin. Then I remembered that people go on Booze Cruises all the damn time and I am not original AT.ALL.
I vote for Pranksters In Paradise as well.

Merry Pranksters Meet-Up
Band of Merry Pranksters has a certain appeal. It’s vaguely intimidating which is always fun in a confined space. It will make people watch us closely which makes us watching them even more fun because it will weird them out.
But I second Bitches in Boats cause I really want to tell everyone i know that I am going on the 1st Annual Bitches in Boats cruise.
I vote Mar 17-20th. My kids are out of school for parent teacher conferences and I’m sure DH can step up to teh plate and go to both while dragging both boys along. After all, I’ve done it twice now due his last minute work schedule changes.

I can’t stop laughing at Megan’s “Better luck next comment” statement which is followed by “shit-faced Ahoy,” from Darius Whiteplume. Yes, indeed, you did get better luck on the next comment.
Who really cares what it’s called? What I want to know is – who’s lining up the sponsors so we can all go for free?
I do like the Family Reunion, though. And, of course, we shouldn’t forget Aunt Becky’s World Tour, Now With Added Pranksters!
I like Bitches on a Boat or Blogger Bitches on a Boat. It’s too much pressure to think of something right away. I’ll sleep on it.
It’s totally the S.S. Prankster Tour of Drunken Awesomeness. Hmm, or All Bitches on Deck. One of the two.
Dude. This is so fuckin awesome. I can’t wait. March works, it’s close enough for me to call it an anniversary present from the hubby. I just have one request – can we make sure it’s NOT on the boat with the creepy hands? Just sayin…. As for names.. I got nothin original because I think I’m mostly brain dead at the moment, but I really like Aunt Becky and the Merry Pranksters World Tour for the G-ratedness factor and being able to wear it on a shirt, which must have sparkles, BTW. Although Bitches on a Boat has a certain ring to it…
I think Butt Secks would be awesome. Would we be able to go to eat & have them all for the “Butt Secks” party of 25?
Pretty clever!
Mommies Synching?
Nah.
How about Pranksters Ahoy! Or more simply, Butt Sex.
YES!!! The Butt Sex Cruise!
Absolute genius!!
Only if Adam Lambert comes on the cruise, and then spends the whole time lusting after me.
So really, it’s a “no” for “Butt Sex.”
O! M! G! Can you die from laughing?
Psssst, she said, “Butt sex.”
Sounds like a blast. Maybe if I get a job sometime soon, I’ll come.
I like the family reunion idea. I already refer to you as ‘my Aunt Becky’. Then I can tell everyone I’m going on a cruise for a family reunion to meet my long lost Aunt Becky.
I had a list of funnies, but I can’t top ‘Pranksters in Paradise.’ Sheesh. I was all ‘Mommy Wants Vodka on the Pool Deck.’
Names:
“mommywantsvodkacruise”
Let me rephrase. “MOMMY WANTS VODKA! CRUISE!!” Yes, yelling indiscriminently words like “vodka” and “cruise” to bystanders will, I believe, get you those things.
Ahem. Next.
“Anut Becky’s Bitchin Boat”
Gots a Tennessee Top Hat / FemMullet viber.
P.S. The misspelling of “Aunt” is intentional. Was initially a typo, but I kept it. Cause it somehow makes sense – a sense of stunted cornholery ambition.
Finally,
“BigBigBoatBitches”
It’s what it is. The double “BigBig” feels Caribbean. You’re welcome. BTW – feel free to pronounce “boat” as BO-at. For any reason.
Thank you for your consideration. I apologize for not finding a way to include a douchebag reference.
You make me want to submit cruise names. That’s hot.
-Mark
I’m going to need to be there. On Aunt Becky’s Booze Cruise.

Ok, Pranksters by the Boatload?? Did someone already say that?

Kids Overboard
I know — all equally awesome, right? You’re welcome.
I’m sorry, but Kids Overboard is freakin’ funny. Wrong, but funny. Nearly spit my tea onto my screen while reading that. My suggestion is:You shut your whore mouth and get on this boat! A little pushy maybe, but so what.
Love you Becky – feel better, dammit!
i love all the suggestions – but my one please please is can you cruise over here to england and pick me up???
end of march is perfecto so i can celebrate my birthday with you bitches on board!
They can pick me up in England while they pick you up. That would make it worth the trip out here, right?
hah. wish i could meet you on the poop deck. okay, no not really. more like the lido. (that’s where they serve food, right?)
Although the odds of getting my not-into-boating-thankyouverymuch husband on a cruise is hiiiiightly unlikely, I will either A. bludgeon him into submission, B. leave my kids on grandma’s door or C. be there in spirit. And since I am totally (a dork) into word play, how about The Bruise! (You know – blogging cruise?) Or the Clog? Or maybe not. 😉
MILFs by the Boatload.
The Search for More Vodka.
Ummmm, i’m going to have to think about this one.
WaterBlogged.
Oh, and can I come even though I’m not a bitch and don’t have boobies? I promise to sit quietly, hands folded, eyes forward, feet flat on the floor.
WaterBlogged is my favourite so far. :o)
The Tank! LOL
On a boat, on a boat, on a mother fuckin’ boat! Thanks. Now that’ll be in my head all day!
Maybe you can call it “Boats and Hos” (a little reference from the movie Step Brothers, not an insult). For some reason that phrase cracks me up. This sounds like fun. I would love to do something like this. I have never been on a cruise and my husband has been trying to find one we’d like so you never know. I think I would leave my crotch parasites at home though so I don’t have to work the mommy hang over thing. Keep us posted on the details.
I don’t care what you name it, I just wanna go! lol
It’s way to early and there has not yet been nearly enough caffine for me to even attempt brilliance this morning. 😉 But keep us updated on this cruise business.
Want to be there even if family can’t make it. Will bring my anti-hangover kit (Excedrin Migraine and Zantac). Don’t know if I want to bring my husband anyway: He doesn’t know my Aunt Becky and doesn’t watch Dexter.
I am overwhelmed by the sheer awesomeness of a cruise. Don’t care what you call it, as long as it has a cussword and the T-shirt is Bedazzled. And a non-spandex option. Don’t need to worry about a diet on a cruise.
Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates and guys are just people to have fun with. -Sex and the City
Holy crap, some of these suggestions are HILARIOUS!

Shut Your Whore Mouth And Get On The Boat
Although I would give my left nut to be on a cruise with Aunt Becky and the Pranksters, this has not been my year and 2011 isn’t really shaping up to be, either.
Besides, since I can’t imbibe, and I suffer from crippling social anxiety, all I would do is sit on the fringes of the group, looking kind of like the kid in 5th grade no one wanted to sit next to because she ate paste. Then occasionally, I’d burst out with something inappropriate and totally not related to the conversation like “I THINK LAVENDER PINE SOL SMELLS LIKE CAT PEE!”. Awk-WARD.
I want to be on this boat. Whatever the cruise is called. We could steal a name that I’ve heard and call it a Booze Cruise. And can I invite friends? We have been dying to go on a cruise forever.
Oh M Geee I will totally try and figure out how to get on this cruise. Even if it means selling my child.
“I sold my child to go on this cruise, cruise”
You can totally invite your friends. And sell your kid. Just don’t say I told you that you could sell your kid.
* Pranksters Ahoy!
* You Shut Your Whore Mouth When I’m Cruisin’
* The Prankster Tour 2011
I’ve never been on a cruise and gotta say, if this thing happens, I might just need to go.
So I realize that I may in fact blow all my cool points with some people by admitting to this but: I don’t drink. My reasons are partially religious but mostly b/c theres a bunch of addicts in my family tree (ALL varieties) and thats pretty much scared me straight as far as abusing any substance other than chocolate.
The point of this confession is this: I’m thinkin the cruise thing would be completely and totally awesome, but do you think I’d be bored outta my mind if all of y’all are completely plastered and I’m the lone sober person on the ship? Will there be non-binge-drinking activities?
Thoughts?
Well, I don’t drink that much and poking fun at the drunk people is very fun. Angie doesn’t drink either. So, I think you’re in FINE company.
Awesome. Thank you!
I’d like to second

aw hell i don’t know i am all out of ideas. ill try some more later.
You didn’t mention if we could be old. Can old people go on the cruise?
I’m pretty old. So totally.
Um, so NOT old. When you realize that you no longer need to bleach platinum/silver streaks in your hair for highlights, but instead need to dye some of the gray back to brown to achieve the effect, THEN you get to call yourself old.
