lets share nice quotes

My dad told me this when I was a teenager and I thought he was silly but it has some truth.

"...But Begbie is playing absolutely fucking gash. He's got a hangover
so bad he can hardly hold the fucking cue, never mind pot the
ball. I'm doing my best to lose, trying to humour him, like, but
it's not doing any good: every time I touch the ball I pot
something, every time Begbie goes near the table he fucks it up.
So he's got the hump, right, but finally I manage to set it up so
all he's go to do is pot the black to win one game and salvage a
little pride and maybe not kick my head in, right. So he's on the
black, pressure shot, and it all goes wrong, big time. What does
he do? Picks on this specky wee gadge at the bar and accuses him
of putting him off by looking at him. Can you believe it? I mean,
the poor **** hasn't even glanced in our direction. He's sitting
there quiet as a mouse when Beggars gubs him with the cue. He was
going to chib him, I tell you, then I thought he was going to do
me. The Beggar is fucking psycho, but he's a mate, you know, so
what can you do?"

 

Live like its heaven on earth
