“What’ll you have?” “I want 33 shots of tequila lined up along the bar.” “Certainly. And here you are. Uh… When do all your friends get here?” _chug_ “When you _chug chug_ drink like _chug chug chug_ this, _chug chug_ who has friends?” ---

I’d slightly adjust that to > Nothing can penetrate the all encompassing propaganda pushing > bigotry, racism and stupidity that infects them. Which they eagerly lap up without question because they are angry narrowminded follower simpletons by nature. ---

> [@LSLGuy](#): > > The drinks package is IMO not a great deal. Someone who likes cocktails or hard liquor and is used to paying big city prices needs to get through probably 5 a day to break even versus the ship’s semi-gougy _a la carte_ drink prices. I mean… I was on a cruise last year, with a drink package, and I easily drank twice that many cocktails - mainly mojitos - a day, along with beer with lunch and wine with dinner. I paced myself, so I never got drunk, but I did manage to maintain a pleasant buzz whenever we were out at sea. It was totally worth it. ---

For the benefit of the uninitiated: GHB in British legalese, stands for “Grievous Bodily Harm” and not anything to do with roofies. I’m totally at sea wrt “Affray.” ---

> [@kaylasdad99](#): > > GHB in British legalese, stands for “Grievous Bodily Harm” and not anything to do with roofies. I guessed it was “great bodily harm” so I was close. It reminded me of “GSW” which means “gun shot wounds”. I think “affray” means getting into a fight in a public place, in a way that scares bystanders and disrupts the peace. ---

From the ESPN article, > His car was only brought to a stop when fan Dan Barr climbed into the back seat of the automatic vehicle and held the gearstick in park mode. That took some serious stones.

FWIW … GBH != GHB. In US use “Affray” is the offense of fighting in public. Some states have it on the books; not all. ---

Former manager of the Harvard Medical School morgue has been sentenced to 8 years in prison for selling body parts. > Authorities said Cedric Lodge was at the center of a ghoulish scheme in which he shipped brains, skin, hands and faces to buyers in Pennsylvania and elsewhere after cadavers donated to Harvard were no longer needed for research. > In one example, Cedric Lodge provided skin to a buyer so it could be tanned into leather and bound into a book, a “deeply horrifying reality,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Alisan Martin said in a court filing. > > “In another, Cedric and Denise Lodge sold a man’s face — perhaps to be kept on a shelf, perhaps to be used for something even more disturbing,” Martin said. > **[Harvard morgue manager who sold body parts like ‘baubles’ gets 8-year prison...](https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/17/us/harvard-morgue-case-cedric-lodge)** > > A former manager of the Harvard Medical School morgue in Boston was sentenced to eight years in prison for stealing and selling body parts “as if they were baubles.” ---

> Péchier’s youngest victim, a four-year-old identified as Tedy, survived two cardiac arrests during a routine tonsil operation in 2016. Tedy’s father, Hervé Hoerter Tarby, told the court: “What happened to us is a nightmare. We trusted medicine and we feel betrayed.” > > He said his son spent two days in a coma with his mother kneeling by his bed and praying. The family told the court their son was used by Péchier as an object to “settle scores” between doctors, suggesting Péchier had poisoned the child to harm his colleagues’ reputations. “It’s inhuman, it’s vile,” Tarby said. > > Tedy, now 14, did not want to give evidence or stand near Péchier in court, but his father read a written statement in which the boy described his “great suffering”. > **[French court finds ‘twisted’ anaesthetist guilty of killing 12 patients](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/18/french-court-finds-twisted-anaesthetist-frederic-pechier-guilty-killing-12-patients)** > > Former top medic described as ‘Dr Death’ by prosecutors poisoned 30 people ranging in age from four to 89 ---
