Captain of the Titanic…..

Where is that bar? The background changes, must a fancy!

……..and didn’t pass ‘Go’, nor collect $200.00.

I think I would call him a swabbie.

Must have gotten married.

But are you “master of your domain”?

The demotion is real.

I never got busted, but I did get a 3-month suspended bust two months before I got out.

I am Captain, until my horse disagrees….

The only American president who served in the military as a private was James Buchanan, and we know how his presidency turned out.

That ship sank long ago.

I use to be a General Nuisance, but my wife demoted me to a Major Disappointment.

He looks more of a shipwreck.

I thought it would be ‘the ship hit an iceberg’

And please, keep it private.

It’s a naval metaphor, not an army one. He got busted to seaman recruit.

No rail in this bar. Unless it’s near the floor out of the panel.

The admiral came through.

Busted! Captain to Private, long fall; Private First Class to Private short fall, still hurts…

It looks like kismet his match.

They made ’im walk the plank!
