cotgrave 

A former policeman in Durham, on the run from the law after a drugs bust at Jimmy's house went wrong. He has style, wit, a gun, and a whacking stick. Don't get in his way, or you'll pay! Big time!

He has starred in many films such as "Enter the Cotgrave" and "The return of the copper who wants to kill for justice : a Cotgrave story".

It is generally beleived that at birth he was taken away from the hospital and thrown in a radioactive swimming pool and has super powers. Did I mention that? Yeah he can fly and shoot lasers from his eyes. Also she shoots fire. Oh yeah, and he is super strong.

He is generally found at Jimmy's house where he beats up people he doesn't like such as stupid fags that are like "HAHAHA YOU USED TEH STANDBY GLITCH YOU NOOB!!". Cotgrave is a hero among men. He should have a day named after him, and also he should have a car which is like the Batmobile, but is called the "Cotmobile". Doodles sits on the back seat shooting out the window at passers by of course. Jimmy is in the passengers seat, and Vuvu...well I don't know where he is, lets just say he is on the "Val mobile" which is like the Cotmobile but less cool in many ways.

Anyway like I was saying, if you meet a man in the street with red eyes, a ripped shirt, fire breath, muscles, and wings, you will know that it is Cotgrave, and no matter how well behaved you have been, you have 20 seconds to live..

(If you're lucky)
"Oh my god, argh! He is ripping my head off, with a fork! Raghagh!"

"What up, cotgrave. Please don't kill me".



And now for a role play, where cotgrave is undercover as a libarian..


Man: Hello, where do I return this book?

Cotgrave: Havn't you heard of the Dewey Decimal system?!

Man: No shut up!

Cotgrave : *pulls out sword*. You're fucked now, you stupid moron

Man: Noo, please don't kill me!

Cotgave: You know, up until now, I always wanted to kill a man like you....So goodbye!

*Kills*

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
