i think the poverty, lack of education, drug taking, alcoholism and generally being a shit province balance out the fireworks law

I'm struggling to see any forms of poverty or drug taking where I live
the only alcoholism is my own and the education system in Scotland is and always has been far superior to England. And bear in mind I'm English. The only problem I have with the place is small-minded anti-Englishness occasionally. Mostly, though, you can weigh that up against people who think Scotland is full of drug-taking illiterates, when in fact that now describes pretty much any provincial town in England.

I have been in a 'has drugs but no note with which to snort them with' situation on a number of occasions.
Really living the champagne lifestyle dream right there. That and 'inhaling through your nose in a shit-splattered lavatory cubicle' really makes the dream complete.

The good thing is that you recognise this and are
taking meaningful to straighten out cracking on as normal

No, that time it was just a really ugly person standing in front of him
but I can see why you would make that mistake.

yes, but when it's done with an air of raffish bravado, it's probably OK.

This might also be true, of course.
