We're all in a big ship on the seven seas. Who's the skipper? Who's the mutineer? Who's the slapper? Where do we sail? Who sets the course? How do we deal with scurvy?

Splice the mainbrace! All aboard! New answers!

― Will, Thursday, 20 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

In naval parlance, what is a slapper?

― Tom, Thursday, 20 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

There isn't a slapper in naval parlance. I wrote it because we'd all have a better time on the ship with a few slappers aboard. I'd nominate myself - I've shamelessly moved on from the path of Bax to Saffron Burrows with an airy nonchalance

Can I be Ensign Pulver?

After eating your curries I dread to think how dirty the poop deck will be.

― Pete, Thursday, 20 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

'Turnips on the ox!' is brilliant. I have no idea what it means but it is my battle cry from now on
