Girl in student unionWhen I was young and naive, I was a student at Edinburgh University. One of it's many (shit) student unions is a cheesy nightclub affair called Potterrow. It's on 3 floors. Anyway, I was pissed out of my skull and was staggering down the stairs when I saw a very attractive girl clearly struggling to stand. She was trying to climb the stairs by clinging to the stair rail and dragging the rest of her body behind her. Always the smooth talker, I pointed and laughed at her saying something along the lines of, "My God, you're sooooo fucking drunk!"
She stopped, looked me straight in the eye and perfectly coherently replied, "No, I'm disabled."
