Titanic AKA: "Failboat" It was a ship built with 16 water tight compartments, and deemed to be unsinkable, however on Failboat's maiden voyage, she struck an ice burg, opening the first 5 compartments to the sea, besides striking along the side, the ship also ran aground over the ice burg, as ice burgs are larger under water than the surface, this caused damage to the Failboat's double bottom. Causing flooding in areas of the ship 15 feet in from the hull, coming from below. Likely from the double bottom being severely damaged.
The Failboat's pumps were only able to pump out about 10% of the water that was coming in. And though the total damage was only about 12 feet square (4 meters square) the ship was doomed, and sank 2 and a half hours later, killing more than 1,500 people, many of which froze to death in the freezing Atlantic.
To this day, Titanic is refered to as RMS Failboat. Because of the legendary fail that happened on that cold April night in 1912.
Partially to blame is humanity, believing that not even an act of god can sink a ship, too much trust in technology. That and the noobs that were in charge of writing laws up, instead of having enough life boats for each person on board, instead stated that lifeboat capacity was determined on the tonnage of a vessel.
Milton S Hershey was supposed to have sailed on RMS Failboat (Titanic) on his return to the US with his wife. But then at the last moment a change of plans, saved him from a likely cold wet grave.

Nissan's new full-size truck...with it's 5.6L V8, it produces 305 HP and 379 lb-ft of torque and a 9500 lb max towing capacity, also a 5-speed automatic(boo)...
Dude...Nissan Titan beats the new Dodge HEMI on the drag strip, including every other test on a truck...
Hell, even the Ford SVT F-150 Lightning would beat a HEMI...

the best movie of all time. throughout watching the movie you sit there and hope jack doesn't die, because leonardo di caprio is the most sexiest man alive. it's a look an older and longer version of the song "someone like you" by adele, making you want to sit there and cry while you stuff your face with icecream and wonder why your love life can't be like that.
girl one: me and jimmy just broke up.
girl two: oh, do you want me to play "someone like you"?
girl one: oh hell no. that can't even come close to showing my emotional despair. i think i'm just going to watch the Titanic and eat a pint of ben and jerry's.

From EVE Online.
A giant, roughly phallic starship, able to bring about tremendous destructive power. It takes about a year to train for, and another two to use it effectively.
They've brought in a Titan!

Within the context of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000, Titans are massive, over-gunned God-machines that are deployed to utterly crush opposition that is too well entrenched to be dealt with through conventional arms. The smallest class of Titan is several times larger than the largest conventional battle tank, and the largest Titans (such as the Imperator and Warmonger) are capable of laying waste to entire cities in single volleys of fire.
It is an unspoken rule that Titans must therefore have names of unparalleled gravitas, for example, "Dies Irae" (Day of Wrath), "Dominatus" or "Majesti Indomitabilis".
Players who build the largest classes of Titan within the constraints of Warhammer 40,000 are seen as being either Gods amongst Nerds, or Eternal Virgins.

"Good for him. Now can you come out to my car and help me carry my Warlord Titan inside?"
