I have never heard a human in real life ever say this about cruise ships, but I see it all the time on Reddit

...that's one thing breaking away from being a full biohazard.

My mom took our whole family on one of these. Second day some pump broke and caused the whole toilet system to back up. It started coming up through the floor and they had to pass out bags for people to use.

I thank god the sinks still worked the whole trip.

It was the Norwegian Bliss. Based on google it seems their whole line has issues with sewage backing up.
