Yes. My functional immunity only means I become a heroin junkie if I shoot up not in service to the nation. Go wild.

Don't be so down about your work. There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

Been a while since I've seen that movie, something about hard drugs and how the English are not only wankers, but also quite capable of controlling Scotland.

You can't have a proper rap career without at least three facial tattoos these days. It's called dedication to the arts.

Doesn't narrow it down much when you describe it like that. :p

The English are routinely cast as wankers. Being easily-writable all-purpose wankers seems to be our purpose in works of fiction.

If there's ever someone with an English accent in an American show, I'll put my money on them being exposed as a secret hatchet-wielding serial killer before the series is out.

EDIT: BTW, I know Trainspotting is a British film.
