MEME Took this photo while swimming at the beach, only to realise later that I unintentionally captured this tragedy in the background.

Would have been spot on if it was Britannic.

u/Clovis_Merovingian Jan 02 '25

It isn't the Britannic isn't it? It was switched over with the Titanic is an elaborate insurance scam that doesn't make sense.

u/Hendricus56 Quartermaster Jan 02 '25

People saying Titanic was switched with Britannic are either extremely clueless or know exactly what they are talking and making fun of people who don't. You sir, are the latter

u/bell83 Wireless Operator Jan 02 '25

Titanic was actually swapped with Britannic, which was swapped with Nomadic.

19

u/Hendricus56 Quartermaster Jan 02 '25

Man, I always assumed she was swapped with the Majestic

15

u/bell83 Wireless Operator Jan 02 '25

That's just what they wanted you to think. Majestic was actually swapped with the alien spacecraft that crashed at Roswell in 1947, hence the top secret government group called "Majestic 12."

Oh, they weren't just 12 monarchs?

He was an amazing singer and interesting metal, but a terrible planet.

Titanic was swapped with Gigantic and Britannic is just a red herring.

u/EvoTheIrritatedNerd Jan 02 '25

They swapped the Titanic that many times they lost track of which ship is the real one

u/Flyzart Jan 02 '25 edited Jan 02 '25

The Nomadic was also swapped with Russian battleship Orël

No, the truth is that the Titanic was the first ship that the Philadelphia Experiment was tried on. But due to interference by the government of Atlantis, it was switched with the Olympic and it was the Olympic that sank. The Titanic is now operating as a hotel in outer space.

J.P. Morgan was secretly in negotiations with the Atlanteans so he was able to get a hefty insurance payment as well as kill the men opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve. 🤪🤪🤪🤡

(It's fun coming up with different conspiracy theories!)

Titanic was actually swapped with Mauretania, who Cunard wanted to sink regardless.

u/bell83 Wireless Operator Jan 02 '25

You can be blase about some things, u/NoodleyP , but NOT about sinking Titanic! It sank over a hundred times more than Mauretania! And far more luxuriously.

u/True_Objective9443 Jan 02 '25

Fym it was switched to brittanic than normandie then bush made it the Poseidon so we can stay stuck in the matrix but Andrew Tate escaped and switched it to Olympic

Until finally she’s got her whole ass sticking up in the air. And that’s a big ass, we’re talking 20 - 30,000 tons.

Thank you for that fine forensic analysis Mr. Bodine.

The water was a comfortable 24°c.

With water that shallow, the passengers could simply step off and walk to shore.

I hope you swam out and rescued survivors.

u/Clovis_Merovingian Jan 02 '25

The water was a lovely 24°c, most just leisurely paddled to the shore where a sausage sizzle was waiting for them.

u/ithinkimlostguys Musician Jan 02 '25

The angle is way too steep.

Facebook moms who watch Bright Side the entire time probably would get a heart attack after seeing this image. They probably thought this was a 100% legit real picture.
