    Dammit, I wracked my brain trying to figure out what that would be called aboard ship. I changed the title of the post but I’ll leave the caption as they wrote it.

    “Downstairs is below, that side is starboard, that’s aft and that’s portside. If I ever hear you say one more civilian word like “stairway” again I’ll throw you through that little round window over there!”
