Inspired by our erstwhile colleague Seņor Agent Orange in a recent post on another thread, please complete the sentence above. Points will be awarded for originality and form of poetic license taken 😉

Here's my effort....

Well, it wouldn't launch. Because gree outsourced their ship building facility to contractors based in the middle of the Gobi Desert.

If Gree were to relaunch a ship, it would have been built by the funzio ship building corporation.
Having been a solid performer for the funzio company the SS Funzio was placed into dry dock for maintenance, a spray job and a rename prior to delivery to her new owner Gree.
When the chocks were released the slender ship roll smoothly down the slipway and gently into the water.
The Gree team cheered with delight in the splendour and beauty of the mighty SS GREE. What an earner she would be.
What a beautiful sight.
Then Gree flight GR 370 appeard from nowhere and crash into it.
Gree decided to give up on their air and sea fleet and decided to focus on their power generation business instead.
Plans are on the board for a 900 MW nuclear power plant.
What could possibly go wrong.

If Gree were to launch a ship, it would....

Have an slightly skewed and offset rudder for the express purpose of making the ship NOT go where it had been directed.

Have a large sign above the steering wheel stating the ship cannot deviate from its course.

Have a coin slot lock mechanism on the wheel requiring a deposit to unlock it each time the Captain wanted to change course.

Launch fine and on time, but all of the on-board services would be mixed up.

If Gree were to launch a ship, it would...

Set sail into open water based on the guarantee of the engineer that it was "virtually unsinkable". Along the way, the ship's engineers would implement several new features for the passengers to enjoy, but some of the features would inadvertently toss several paying passengers overboard. As they splash in the water and cry out for a line to haul them back in, they would be told by the deckhands, "we are looking into the problem, and should have a liferaft ready for you upon the ship's next major overhaul".

Meanwhile, some of the passengers in the ballroom, still being able to dance to the music, would be asking the deckhands if the ship's captain would be offering a 40% off sale on the stale caviar, since it's a holiday and all.

A few other passengers laugh and toss insults at both groups, the ones drowning in the sea, and the ones drowning in discounted stale caviar.

If Gree were to launch a ship it would look like a tank and be categorized under air. But those would only be display issues, it would still be able to sink....and be really good at it

liked the airplane thread. but it was closed.... they dont seem to understand fun. last thing, which keeps their product alive.... our humor


it would bump against the quay wall cause the harbour seems to be new to the captain. Though itīs the home port. Second time the ship runs into that port just after a 4 week journey, it will bump against the quay wall again....

Gree will colour the ship, bumpss.

Give some free drinks to the passengers, bump....

Extend the journey, but it hits the wall again....

Think it would be a submarine, floating upside down in a water pool they found on Mars
