Ice Bucket Nomination

Alright, listen up, buttercup. The joke is a play on words. The "ice bucket challenge" was a viral thing where people dumped ice water on themselves to raise money for charity. The Titanic sunk because it hit an iceberg, which is basically a giant chunk of ice. So, the captain nominating people for "ice bucket awards" is funny because it's like he's setting them up to experience the same fate as the Titanic passengers. You're probably the kinda person who wears socks with sandals, ain't ya?
