Ducks are worthless. Handle them with respect

A crew member I spoke with once informed me that your ducks are disposed of right away when they are discovered in public areas. The argument is that it poses a choking threat and is unhygienic. That means that the great majority of the ducks you “hide” end up in the trash.

During our Greenland voyage, I came across one that had a knit cap that was specially created for it.

We found it to be rather interesting!

My children were directed to them by crew members. If you don’t want ducks to leave them for someone else to enjoy, then why are you so miserable?

Weird take. The security officer I spoke with outside the jewelry store in Central Park, who works as a crew member, informed me that he gathers them during the night and distributes them. Additionally, he showed me other pictures from his collection, which he adds to the kids’ treasure hunt every shift.

Insanitary conditions?LMFAAO… imagine 3000 people pissing in the pools and hot tubs on a floating yacht in the middle of the Atlantic, or wherever, and not cleaning their hands afterward, all while worrying about the fuckin duck(s)… have a life.

Oh no. You top all the grinches I’ve ever seen in my life. You are aware of the joy those things provide to children (and adults). And out of spite, you want to discard them? Nobody is getting wounded by those ducks. Sorry, but just because some irrational, egotistical person says it online doesn’t mean I’ll be tossing away any ducks I see.

I hope that one day you will discover a small item that makes you happy and that no one will make fun of you for it.

Anything you pick up and put in your mouth, in my opinion, is not hygienic. Do you pick up other arbitrary items?

In December, I will be taking a cruise.

I adore ducks.

Some will be taken by us to conceal.

There are duck hunts listed in the daily newsletter that are officially sponsored by the ship, so.

A new class category for cruise ships will be required. Acceptable Ducks or Not Allowed Ducks LOL

Tell your partner that you don’t want to take another cruise, OP.

It’s easier to be resentful of home

You choose a fun game that a lot of people love out of all the things one may stand up for in life and strive to make the world a better place?

You had a conversation with a cruise passenger once, so now you feel qualified to discuss the “vast majority”?

You may have gained respect from others if you wrote this:

I don’t know why the duck game is so fascinating. One crew member I spoke with that they throw them out when they find them in the trash. Although I don’t understand, I’d like your opinion on why other people think this is an enjoyable activity. I appreciate your responses.

THAT post is typical. Something about you is off…

I have only taken one cruise, so I don’t think that’s accurate, although a crew member did tell me where to look for one. Furthermore, since it was as large as a tennis ball and not a choking hazard,

I don’t go duck hunting, but I do occasionally talk to some of the crew from past voyages. Two of them keep an eye out for really unique and adorable ducks to gift or bring home for their little ones (albeit there aren’t many of them, tiny quarters and all). :woman_shrugging:t2: Thus, I suppose it depends on the crew member.
