Two days ago ago a man attempted to shoot some fire in the air during a wedding in Bteghrine but ended up critically injuring a photographer when he lost control over his gun. (Source)
What’s even worse is that the photographer was then rushed to the hospital but not admitted until three men attacked the ER staff which eventually led to the arrest of the groom!
Talk about a memorable wedding party…
Despite all the calls against firing guns in the air to celebrate the Brevet (grade 9) results today, a lot of people insisted on doing it their own way and fired off rounds into the air which unfortunately resulted in killing an 85 year old man after he was hit by a stray bullet in Baalbeck. At around 5PM I was also picking up my 3 months old baby from my parents’ house in Beirut and got outraged as I heard a bullet fall behind us on the sidewalk…
So, for all those people who felt euphoric for their kids getting this utterly stupid certificate, here are five ways you can put it to good use.
They’re cute and will add a nice touch to the party you will be throwing for your kid.
For those boring summer days.
The right absorbent for those oily Shawarma sandwiches.
Something to match your silly face.
Seriously, stop pretending like your kid actually accomplished something, and reflect about this while you slowly shove that certificate up your ass.
Kess ekhtak 3a ekht ebnak!
