RCCL TV Ad Campaign - Who are they kidding?

Has anyone seen these commericials? It looks like an attempt to market to the 25 to 45 year old active, athletic "Outside Magazine" crowd set to the beat of an Adam Ant song. Then you look at these threads and this is what you see: <BR><BR>When do we eat? How much free pop can we drink? What if someone cuts in front of me in the buffet line? Can I wear my jeans? When do we eat? Do I have to share my wine? Why do I have to tip everyone? What if I think the people at my table are icky? When do we eat? Hardly a word about anything active, let alone about actually GETTING OFF the ship and doing something. What gives?

Hey "False", if you follow many of the threads at this site, you'll get the impression that a lot of people are senseless, sarcastic, blathering idiots. Try cruisecritics for some reality in cruising!

Commercials rarely have anything to do with the product or reality. <BR><BR>What does the commercial have to do with what people write on this board?<BR><BR>Why do you care what people write on this board?<BR><BR>Let me suggest if you don't find what you're looking for here you go to CruiseAddicts or Cruise Mates or Cruise Critics.

cruisecritics board aren't a bunch of smart a****.You register, after all. When there is disagreement, it is handled in a much more respectful way instead of profanity and name-calling.
