Man Names Boat "Titanic II" Predictable Results Follow

Let it go buddy, there's no saving it.

Fox News - A 16-foot cabin cruiser named the Titanic II went the way of her namesake Sunday, when she sprung a leak and sunk on her maiden voyage, The Sun reported. Briton Mark Wilkinson, 44, had to be rescued from the harbor at West Bay, Dorset, in the U.K., as he clung to the sinking boat. “If it wasn’t for the harbormaster, I would have gone down with the Titanic,” Wilkinson told The Sun. “It’s all a bit embarrassing - I’m fed up with people asking me if I hit an iceberg.” Wilkinson had bought the boat second-hand, named it the Titanic II, and decided to take it out fishing, The Sun reported. A large hole opened up in the vessel’s fiberglass hull on his way back to the harbour. The “unsinkable” Titanic ocean liner hit an iceberg in 1912 on its maiden voyage to New York; 1,517 lives were lost.

Get a load of this asshole, complaining about people asking him about icebergs and shit.  Hey bro, that's just the tip of the ice berg, as they say...get ready for a lifetime of ice berg straight ahead, king of the world, and Kate Winslet boobie jokes, all at your expense.
 
Listen, you had the gall to think you could just name your boat after the worst boating tragedy of all time and the karma gods would just let you get away with it, you suffer the consequences.  What the hell did you think would happen on your maiden voyage? Everything would just go hunky-dory, you and that old broad would find the purple diamond and you'd come ashore the conquering hero?  Come on bro, get your head out of your ass. Sometimes you're just best off not tempting fate.
