An 82-year-old Broadway producer and her 91-year-old husband were kicked off the Queen Mary 2 after getting into a heated argument with a fellow passenger at a black-tie dinner, according to a report in the New York Post.

Gloria Sher and Frederick Evans reportedly got into a shouting match with a dining companion who, the couple claims, made an anti-Semitic remark.

Sher said a fellow cruiser told her to shut up, and said, "There are too many Jews on board," the Post reported.

Sher, who is Jewish, told the paper that she became angry, saying, "F**k you!" and "How dare you insult me!"

As you become older, you tend to realize that charm school was something your mother wanted you to go to so she could be proud of your manners.

Two informally dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in Toronto’s airport.
The first lady was an arrogant Upper Canadian married to a wealthy business man.The second was a well mannered elderly woman from Detroit.

When the conversation centered on whether they had any children, the Upper Canadian woman started by saying, “When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me.”

The lady from Detroit commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”

The first woman continued, “When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz..

Again, the lady from Detroit commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”

The first woman continued boasting, “Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.

Yet again, the Detroit lady commented, “Well, isn’t that precious?”

The first woman then asked her companion, “What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?”

“My mother sent me to charm school,” declared the Detroit lady.

“Charm school?” the first woman cried, “Oh, my God! What on earth for?”

The elderly Detroit lady responded, “Well for example, instead of saying “Who gives a shit?” I learned to say, “Well, isn’t that precious”...

Many moons ago, 4th anniversary was spent on the QEII.
The “couple” next door was heard loudly... I pounded on the wall to let them know and both of the guys giggled like schoolgirls then got louder. I had our room changed post-haste.

Nothing but bad memories from the QEII

“then you realize who the hell cares what they think. “

You’re damn right I don’t give a damn what anyone thinks of me!

If at least half the people don’t hate my guts i’m doing something wrong!

An 82-year-old Broadway producer and her 91-year-old husband ...

Hmmm, maybe the Broadway producer was just hard of hearing, and the other person simply commented that people were wearing too many JEWels on board the cruise ship?

Or, maybe not.

“There’s too many muslims aboard”
“There’s too many ragheads aboard”
“There’s too many goat humpers aboard”
“There’s too many islamofascist sympathizers aboard”
“There’s too many fags on on aboard”
“There’s too many queers on aboard”

No one would get upset over those, right?
