Just like the pinnnacle pin and people wearing lanyard. Hilarious. Are you really seeing this or having fun with imagination?

Ret MP Posted April 16, 2023 #102 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Hey Hey Hey. I'm a card-carrying gold-plated Pinnacle, Star Class, block on the coffee table/mantle, member of the Britsh Royalty, and a nobody. I resent any and all comments about me. And get off my lawn. Disclosure: I have nothing against any of the above. In fact, I aspire to be a Pinnacle one day. But, at 71 and with limited resources, I don't think I'll make it. I am doing the "nobody" very well, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty obvious how some people take looks so very seriously. Of others, at least. For all of the mad posts about dress code, lanyards, and pinnacle pins, I do hope I’m ruining someone’s vacations. I do my part. lol. If it makes you feel better, I did overhear someone talking about shorts when we walked by them in the MDR on a recent cruise. Made me chuckle that they noticed.

ldubs Posted April 16, 2023 #104 Share Posted April 16, 2023 You know, it comes to a point when it is what it is. Just be nice to the folks around you and enjoy your cruise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I was right about you are imagining things. I see a discussion about dress code and norms. Nothing about how people feel about it, I am sure there are people who are upset just like you mentioned (although I am not sure if they just discussed or really were upset) I just do not see them in this discussion.

Ret MP Posted April 16, 2023 #108 Share Posted April 16, 2023 It all boils down to tablecloths. You can't wear shorts if there is a tablecloth on the table. Oh wait, the MDR has tablecloths on for Breakfast and Lunch but shorts are Okay at those times. I wonder what's going on with that. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learn that in some village restaurants there tablecloth. Do I need to post FAQ from RCI again? Oh, I know ... it is a suggestion, so people won't arrive to MDR for lunch in long pants accidentally. 🙂 Edited April 16, 2023 by Tatka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare nimbex1970 Posted April 16, 2023 #123 Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) There is ALWAYS one, at least one in every dress code thread. The same as there is always one, at least one snickering at others' choice of clothing wear on a ship. Likely the same folks? Who am I to say, busy having the time of my life.

She was a month shy of 99 years old, and it was her time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
