Rare cgolf1 Posted January 5 #53 Share Posted January 5 26 minutes ago, TeaBag said: Good for her. I hate it when men refer to their spouse as "the wife". It's degrading. Interestingly I have heard both men and women use the 'the', especially when referencing a kid. I think the degrading part would be the intent, which all I have heard use it never have had intent. When my wife refers to me as that !**!@** of a husband, that is just life as usual and I hope I am just kidding:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvis 9 hours ago, cruisestitch said: I was once told that the actual proper name of each ship is Celebrity Equinox, Celebrity Constellation and so on. That Celebrity is part of their official name. Can anyone confirm? If your are on a Celebrity ship or on CC no need to say Celebrity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they along with other cruise lines addressing their ships. Doesn't mean I will or have to in a conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean I will or have to in a conversation. For some reason, the rest of my post was chopped off. I also wrote that there isn't any reason to always use the full, formal name in most discussions. But I also think that getting ones shorts in a twist over the use of a nickname is an indication of having too much time on one's hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nails on a chalkboard grammar faux pas is when someone writes "Your going to enjoy a wonderful meal in the Connie dinning room. You're DH/DW will love there escargot." Ackkk, I can't believe that which I just wrote. 🤣🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMLAalum Posted January 5 #64 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Hmmmm..... My High School is THE Mary Louis Academy in Jamaica Estates NY (hence my cruise critic name) and I root for The Buckeyes of THE Ohio State University! I tend to refer to Celebrity ships with a /the/ before the name in posts and in conversation, but I noticed my signature is sans the /the/!
