The Flesh Eating Virus.  One person gets that and the whole shit is screwed.  Same goes for the Bubonic Plague.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>2.  Buffet meals.  I like the occasional buffet but you know they use the same food over and over again and let me assure you that those so called sneeze guards aren&#8217;t keeping everything safe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>3. The very real possibility of meeting a couple who we think we like the first night, then finding out the second night they&#8217;re annoying, then having to dodge them for eight more nights.  I just don&#8217;t have that kind of strength. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>4.  When you flush the toilet&#8230;where does it go?  I don&#8217;t think it goes into the ocean, I think it stays on the boat with you. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>5.  Eventually someone is going to force me to participate in a group activity.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>6.  Those cruise ships seem really high.  If you fall off the side, are you doomed?  I&#8217;m a strong swimmer but I think that fall might be a problem.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>7.  Is someone making sure the captain isn&#8217;t getting drunk and ramming us into stuff?  Like mountains or other ships?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>8.  Once you&#8217;re in the middle of nowhere isn&#8217;t the chance of getting hijacked and forced into white slavery pretty good?  I mean if I were a pirate\/white slave proprietor I would go straight for the cruise ships and I can&#8217;t be the first person to think of that. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>9.  What if a seagull gets into the little window in my cabin and it flies around wreaking havoc and contaminating the food and fresh water I had been hoarding?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>10.  What if I can&#8217;t afford a cabin with a little window and sleep the entire trip because I never see any natural morning light to wake me up?  That happened to me my senior year in college.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10 Legitimate Reasons Why I&#8217;m Afraid Of Going On A Cruise &nbsp; 1. The Flesh Eating Virus.
