How tacky can you get?
There are several items, including lamps and banks, based on the Titanic.
Fifteen hundred people died the night the ship sank. That is half the number of people who died in the September 11th, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York. In 80 years, will there be banks and lamps that appear to be collapsing in a cloud of dust, modeled after the twin towers? With only a few people left alive who lived through the attacks, will it be seen as something to model art after?
I’m guessing if the Titanic had sunk in 2001, and had the same massive loss of life, it wouldn’t be so cool… in fact, these designers would be shamed. Imagine losing a loved one to the sinking ship, or being on it yourself. Memorial my ass… these are tacky souvenirs of a horrible disaster.
