But his secret weapon was sheer, unadulterated laziness. He wasn’t fleeing from danger; he was conserving energy for his next epic fall. He didn’t exercise; he called it “maintaining inertia.” He was a human sloth with a sailor’s vocabulary and a pension for chaos.

His Ultimate Superpower: The Complimentary Sherry

Albert was the only man in the world who could get drunk on the scent of a drink. He never paid for a round. Ever. He’d hover near Del’s drinks cabinet like a phantom, muttering about “sustenance for an old man.” He could smell a free drink from three floors away.

And his version of “helping” consisted of saying “You’re doing a good job, Rodney,” while doing absolutely nothing. It was a masterclass in psychological warfare. You wanted to throw him out the window, but then he’d look at you with those watery eyes and start about the sinking of the Ark Royal.

So, raise a glass of lukewarm sherry to Uncle Albert. He was a disaster. He was a liar. He was a walking insurance claim. But he was our disaster. And he gave us the most important lesson of all: You don’t need to be useful to be beloved. You just need good stories. And a chair. And a very, very good grip on the railings.
