I like that . . . possible whiplash lawsuit in the works from slipping on unmarked wet floor and no cushion to break his fall . . . hope he uses Diddy, Dickem, and Howe and sues their a$$.

This guy should move to the US and get a job in the White Hut.

He’s that good.

Sounds like a Kennedy

Yup.

The same captain—after being caught by his wife—using the services of a prostitute said, “Honestly honey, I wasn’t even wearing a condom...I just slipped and fell into bed with this woman!”

Now that’s a steamin’ pile of Schettino if I ever heard one. Did he get that from the Italian Guide for the Married Man? “I am innocent, cara mia! She tripped and fell on my lap*!”

*Just keeping it clean there...

He also claimed before this that he saved thousands by taking the ship so close to shore.
