No matter how many times i read about Stephen being late to a dinner or some other event, i always crack a smile when he's forcibly hauled back and made presentable.

There's a phrase that captures Jack perfectly and damned if I can remember it exactly. Something along the lines of "A man with a great appreciation of all humor, be it his own or other's." That's why you can never fully dislike the pun thing, because he never steals jokes and laughs just as hard at other people's. Every time he tells the dog-watch story he makes sure to give Stephen credit.

The nice thing is that O'Brian pretty much expected that to be the reaction of non-sailors, so your job is to happily nod along like Maturin while checking a cheat sheet if you really want to try and get it. The idea that a sailing ship is a finely tuned machine is what's important, not the exact details, so feel free to skim a bit over rope chat. \/\/\/ Welp.

Living in a loft apartment with four other men, I've gained a newfound appreciation for the "we're all going to act as if we can't hear what's on the other side of this wall" aspect of shipboard life.

That's why the packages are numbered, vagaries of mail being what they are.

Jack's pissed but also realizes he gets to do more math to figure out navigational techniques IN SPACE
