Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A maritime tradition that if a ship is sinking, the Captain should remain aboard it, or at least be the last one to escape. This can also extend to other crewmen, usually so they can oversee and direct passengers onto the lifeboats first. The latter often goes hand in hand with "Women and children first" (leading to jokes where adult men dress in drag or like children). A common twist in comedic works is for the captain to appoint someone else captain and let them go down with the ship. Sometimes the new captain then uses the "promotion" to reassign the old captain as captain, often going back and forth repeatedly. |
