Fangirl's "1001 Types of Ships"
So I came across giringnijimura and found this particular post hilarious. xD
Iāve received her permission to translate it into English and repost it in my blog so everyone can also enjoy her creatively amusing idea.
Note: Itās not exactly ā1001ā, but, wellā¦ You get the ideaā¦ xD
Also, none of these are my personal idea. Iām simply translating it from Indonesian to English so everyone can understand. :)
Ocean: This is the Fandom. Itās not a ship, but very crucial, nonetheless. You canāt sail any ship without a fandom, right?
Cruise Ship: A ship with lots of shippers and an abundance of fan-girling materials. Itās so blissful as if you were in a marvelous honeymoon.
Titanic: The sinking ship. Usually accompanied by the laments of fangirls with āMy Heart will Go Onā or āI will Always Love Youā sung in the background.
Emergency Boat: When your ship seems to be sinking, you escape here to find sanctuary.
Submarine: A ship you secretly ride on. No one knows that youāre on this ship a.k.a. Closet Shipper.
Kayak: An unusual or rare ship. Not everyone ships it. After all, you can only ride a Kayak alone or just with a few people. The ocean seems to be extreme, too, so you have to be tough to survive with this ship.
Raft: You can even count the number of shippers with your fingers. It looks shabby and pathetic, but at least itās still better than the Paper Boat.
Paper Boat: You might be the only shipper. Itās frail and the sinking rate is high, too. Itās the saddest ship on earth, but you still ship it anyway despite the loneliness.
Pirate Ship: A ship filled with rioters that often sabotage other ships to gain more followers.
Torpedo Boat: The provocateur of ship wars.
Battle Ships: Participants of ship wars.
Banana Boat: You ship this just for the fun of it.
Steam Boat: Used to be a Primadona, but now sadly forgotten. Itās your old ship, but you mightāve forgotten about it and moved on to newer ships.
Rescue Ship: Saves you from various kind of troubles. When youāre feeling down, you run to this ship to ease your heart.
Garbage Scow: Ship with a lot of shippers that litter everywhere. (Note: This probably mean a fandom where the shippers often fights, post useless arguments, etc. In any case, itās annoying and wonāt make you happy).
Gondola: Looks cool and filled with prestigious shippers, but actually thereās nothing really special about it. (Note: Might refer to over-rated fandom/ship).
Noahās Ark:Ā A ship that provide sanctuary to all fans. You simply cannot hate this ship.
Dragon Boat: Since itās a type of sport, you can think of it as a ship from sport fandoms with lots of shippers. (Note: At this point, the original author confessed that she ran out of idea).
Shipping: When two ships encounter each other. Calling it skinship might be legit, too.
Kapal Api (Fire Boat): An Indonesian coffee brand.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦Okay, this oneās a joke. Pardon the pun.
Ferry Boat: Lots of shippers, but only during peak season.
Dredger: Few shippers. Appears only when the season is right since you canāt plow any materials in the wrong season.
I have to add this one
Davy Jones: A sunken ship that suddenly rises back up again for (whatever reason).
