For Farmaz:
Brilliant, but Irvine Welsh gave up smack mate and look where that got him? Not dead like the rest of his friends for starters.
I lived the "start a revolution from my council flat, get banned from cash converters, live from day-to-day, etc. life" and on reflection...it was great sometimes! Often not though, and yes I do look back with nostalgia now and again, a worrying amount of time to be fair, but I think that's testament to the power of opiates, not the fucking life on them.
What I have now is much more fulfilling and not just for me, and how could it not be? I will be judged by the years after gear from now on thank god. And please don't suggest I'm a conformist just because I don't try to pick holes in Churchill, or want to be sick everyday from a selfish drug, be in debt, be in debt to the DWP (of all people), be in poor physical health and mental health, be lonely etc etc. I didn't handle all of that well in the end, but for some people it doesn't even get that bad (there are some on here: lovely, well-rounded, fully-functional, addicts). I was not a functioning addict, and you clearly aren't as well.
It's funny that you call me blind after I described your current Bodda incarnation as being like Saul on the road to Damascus. Mate I was blind, and now I see! What is it that you see that I don't?? What is that you are achieving that I am not?? I am happy by my standards at the end of the day, and it's just a bonus that I now make many others happy. No medication, no AA, just good luck and some hard fucking work.
I am politcally aware enough to be sceptical, but not stupid enough anymore to not use the system for my own personal gain. It's not about the red pill or the blue pill, it's what you make it. Guido Fawkes is a shite avatar for me actually, he failed BIG TIME, and he ended up killing himself actually, that could have been me. I'm going to change it to a shark, sharks have been here in this form for 450 million years, they are the architects of our world, they created you and me, they don't eat people ffs, they fucking know how to live, they CHOSE life.
Choose your life? Nah, been there, done that, sold the t-shirt off my back.
You went to Wonga for your brown! What's next? A career development loan for a screw-driver and bolt-cutters? Niga please...
