Yarn bomb? What?

Wankers wrap knitting around street furniture as some sort of hipster graffiti.

Oh, for fucks fucking sake.
Some people are just too fucking stupid to live.

These people should cut their own heads off.

It's rife around here at the moment.
There's even a yarn bombing club that have a pop up stall in a new hipster pub called "the big society"

Don't ask, please don't ask.
It's so stupid.

See, you keep giving all these positives to the South
But I put it to you that I don't have to put up with hipster prick shit like this. Except at the moment, obvs.

I wouldn't trade all the advantages of London for that blissful ignorance I had up until 2 minutes ago.

The one positive about the North is that any lad from above Luton
seeing ones of these pricks would already be kicking the shit out of him before his brain even registered what it was he was seeing.

There are some more positives than that
but right now, you've got to admit that one's a doozy.

Lets be honest if someone tried that on Rose Street
They would soon be collected their teeth

there'd have to be a special trauma ward at Little France
for removal of "aggressively inserted rectal woolens"

This would make me so happy.
I can't even tell you.

If you planned it right
You could have a pint in the greyfriars having encouraged someone to dress up Bobby... Then watch as their face is repeated smashed into an iron dog

In fairness
Since GB is within pissing distance of the Three Sisters, there's a chance of that happening regardless if you time it right.

It's down on the Cowgate.

On Cowgate, under the bridges
End of Grassmarket. It's where the stag dos, hen dos and terminally unimaginative go. So if it doesn't end in a fight and a fuck in either order, it's gone wrong for them.

The last time I was down the Cowgate
I saw a young lass, maybe mid-20s, wearing a short skirt and with shit all the way down the back of her legs, clambering into the back of a taxi.

Classy.

Positively priapic, old stick.
Incidentally, 'Positively Priapic' would be a decent band name. Maybe a Totally Tropical tribute act?

Classy And that, kids, is how I met your mother.

I just don't go down the Cowgate any more.
Although, I did have my wedding reception in the Caves, which is technically at the other end of Cowgate. It's amazing how even down there you get such huge variation between "Classy" and "no, actually, really fairly classy"

That's Edinburgh in a nutshell, to be fair.

Thanks.
Sometimes it pays to be an ignorant bastard.
