Bruise Cruise 2012, Day One: A Totally Drunk Tweetcap With Pictures!
![]() |
| Father Damian likes to stay sober. But Crossfade's always wasted. |
We here at Crossfade are total fucking pros.
So while we openly admit to being dangerously dependent upon both (1) the internet and (2) alcohol, it is exceedingly rare that either addiction discernibly screws with our ability to produce high-quality online journalism.
This weekend, though, I, S. Pajot, have found myself trapped aboard the Bruise Cruise, a 72,000-ton fantasy class ship with virtually non-existent wi-fi service and unlimited booze of all kinds.
Thus, web-less and wasted, Crossfade presents this totally drunk tweetcap with pictures! Plus, famous guy sightings, philosophical puzzlers, and a full inventory of the Bruise Cruise emergency supply kit.
P.S. Check our bloggage and pics from the Bruise Cruise's opening ceremonies with Dirtbombs and Thee Oh Sees.
