The QM2 comes to Boston every year on the 4th of July… and … IDK. don’t you find that maybe a little rude? I mean. Just let it go. It’s not coming back. (I’m on a harbor tour with my in-laws who have come over to visit. )

@futurebird Well, actually... :DUS Constitution to the left. To starboard, the USS Constitution. :)

@futurebird I thought the Constitution was the one that got captured, broken up, and the timbers used to build a mill in Hampshire. Am I mixing up my ships or did they build another one so they could pretend it didn't happen?

@DrHyde The tour guide said it’s the longest ship in active service? But I don’t know if that is just mythological history or factual. Would love to know.

@chu I’d expect showing it to them would be like a jumpscare. Which is why I lug it around hoping for such opportunities…

@futurebird Yo Dawg, I heard you like US Constitutions, so I put an US Constitution in front of your US Constitution.
