    Reminds me of the fat Captain actor accompanying Ernest Borgnine in "The Dirty Dozen"...navigating for him poorly.

    Fecal impaction.

    Knew of a geezer like that locally: stank to high heaven from all the putrefaction. Gut like a drum; last time I saw him he was hobbling about on crutches and probably dead by now.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.

    Had a college roommate whose nickname was Slim - he looked like this guy - 10 steps out of the shower and he would start sweating - his classmates would throw bars of soap at him
