Cabin (ship)

A cabin or berthing is an enclosed space generally on a ship or an aircraft. A cabin which protrudes above the level of a ship's deck may be referred to as a "deckhouse."

Sailing ships

In sailing ships, the officers and paying passengers would have an individual or shared cabin. The captain or commanding officer would occupy the "great cabin" that normally spanned width of the stern with large windows. On a warship it would be separated from the rest of the ship, and further subdivided into day and night cabins with movable panels that could be removed in time of battle to leave the deck clear the whole length of the ship.

Modern warships

In most modern warships, the commanding officer has a main cabin, the in-port cabin, often adjacent to the ship's central control room (operations room), and a sea cabin adjacent to the bridge. Thus, when likely to be called from sleep or attending to administration, the CO can appear at the Bridge or Ops room immediately. The sea cabin is sparsely equipped, containing just a bunk, a desk, and basic toilet facilities. The in-port cabin is more lavishly furnished, with separate bedroom and combination sitting room/office, and more elaborate toiletry facilities.

Hideous

by: Dickies

you're so hideous
you're not one of us
i really pity you
and i don't want you
it's so hard to face you're face
every time i look at you i feel disgrace
i don't want to find you in my place
you are just a basket case
it's so hard to face you're face
every time i look at you i feel disgraced
i don't want to find you in my place
you shouldn't belong to the human race
you're so hideous
you're not one of us
i really pity you
