"Ok folks, we've run the ship into an iceberg and taken on water, what should we do?"
"Well, this new guy, this 'captain', I hear he's not even a captain! He's a bus driver! From a bus company that funded anti-ship newspaper ads!"
"Um, yeah, thanks for that, but the lower compartments are flooding..."
"Well, back in my day, we didn't have any fancy boats like this, we went out and paddled on sticks we tied together."
"I don't see how that's relevant to..."
"I think the captain steered us into that iceberg on purpose! He's part of a vast iceberg friendly conspiracy!"
"Yeah, but the ship you see, it's sinking..."
"I want this captain to fail! I want this ship to sink! That way, I can be king of the lifeboat!"
"Look, we need to come up with some ideas here people, the ship IS sinking.."
"What if we back the boat up a bit and then ram it into the iceberg again?"
"What the hell would that accomplish?"
"I don't know, but that's the direction we were going for a long time, and it seemed right, so I figure if we just keep doing it, but harder and faster, well, that'd be progress of a sort, no?"
"That's insane!"
"Well whatever you folks are doing, I'm taking this gun and all these pastries I stole from the ship's mess and I'm going to go hole up in the crow's nest..."
"But the ship is sinking, that will only help for so long..."
"You sound like you might take my pastries! I'll shoot you!"
"For godsakes people the ship is sinking. CAn we come up with a repair plan? Or someone to work the radio and call for help..."
"I have the radio on right now. There's some guy, Dobs or something, talking about how the ship is sinking because they're were too many poor people in the lower decks see and they all ran over to the right side real fast, and that made the ship start sinking..."
"No, we hit a fucking iceberg you retard - look - out the porthole there you can see it! It's right fucking there..."
"Well, I don't care how we stay afloat but don't expect me to get my feet wet helping you. I can't be bothered..."
"Fuck you people. All of you. Really."
