I didn't think they could do one sequel to Cocaine Bear, much less two. But they did it, and in record time. Cocaine Shark wasn't my jam but I'll give it credit for doing a lot of world building. Cocaine Barnacle should have gone straight to video though.

Did you see the Mexican bootleg "cocaine hippos"?

[–] CM400@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I love how there’s a cop posing with it as though it was a big bust instead of some random turning in what they found.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 2 months ago

Thought the same thing... Pathetic

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

and the dumbasses reported it.

I mean... uh.... yeah. the honorable and honest citizens .... uh. er. did the, uhm, right thing?

(for the record it was probably contaminated by sea water, and probably not worth getting the cartels on you for looting their shit.)

Do you know how to move 56lbs of cocaine with limited risk of repercussions?

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 12 points 2 months ago

Well for starters, lift with your knees.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Simple. be a cop. It was probably 112 pounds to start with.

I’ll take coke cut with some sea salt over whatever it gets cut with once it hits the shores and goes from dealer to dealer.

[–] extremeboredom@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Drywall powder. Anything cheap, white, and powdered! Street coke in the US in 2024 is less than 50% pure.

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

They watched No Country For Old Men

[–] Brickhead92@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

God damn! Imagine finding 50 pounds of cocaine just like that.

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What do you even do when you suddenly find 40 pounds of cocaine?

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not a lot options for dealing with 35 lbs of ketracel white

[–] sxan@midwest.social 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Do the right thing, and turn in all 30 lbs of that cocaine.

[–] acchariya@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Better make sure that 10lbs of cocaine doesn't get into the hands of people and is properly destroyed by authorities

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Never mind, the whole cocaine thing was just a rumor.

*Sniff.*
