Perhaps they were broken hearted that Boaty McBoatface wasn't accepted.

[curiousgal]

It was accepted for a submarine.

[munificent]

But... that's not a boat. Shouldn't it be Subby McSubface?

[d_t_w]

It's the remotely controlled support vehicle.

Remotey Remoteface?

[TeMPOraL]

Droney McDroneface?

[dredmorbius]

Subs are boats.

[nevir]

They're subnautical vehicles. They're beneath that.

[johnhenry]

The German name, "Unterseeboat", and the English adaptation, "U-boat" both imply that they are a type of boat.

[dredmorbius]

I'm starting to suspect some dark humour here. But it runs silent, runs deep. And seems to have gotten all wet.

[taneq]

Well I guess in that instance Boaty McFloaty was automatically disqualified.

[alphapapa]

Careful now, that's humor, and we frown upon that around these parts. D:

[Bombthecat]

Boaty mcdouble?
