    Fucking hell man


    It's a meme. A joke. A lovely tribute to the metre of Irvine Welsh and British Literature. A reminder of a touchstone in British culture. Nobody is expecting you to break it down into bullet points like an artless fart escaping from the crumbling sphincter of a mummy at the British Museum.

    It is a great film and yes the sequel which could have been a disaster was magnificent.

    What I found funny about it was the fact that an old friend of mine, a life long committed heroin user, and tattoo artist who knows more about British and specifically English history than anyone I know ( he reads obsessively on it) posted it.

    Funny because I would be amazed if he was not pro Brexit but also because for a proper head Trainspotting is probably like Poodle rock for a death metal fan

    I thought the sequel was quite touching in a dark way. I enjoyed it. To be fair, it is was a nicely done meme too. I think in all honesty Brexit is something we can all somewhat armchair expert guess about and some experts will say this and others that, but until they get on with it...... Well, I obviously do not wish the UK harm and no I am not profiting from Brexit. It is simply a principle thing with me whilst a lot of that meme info seemed to be about the material. Everyone has their own reasons I guess.

    Watching the Tories getting the bumbling buffoon Boris as their leader and our Prime minister is scary.

    Boris is saying very little as he is an accident waiting to happen. He will screw up Brexit.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
