Trainspotting - my version

Recommended Posts

Those who have seen this film will know at the start Renton says a few words as he's being chased by the police. Here's the original and my version ..... :)

choose life.choose a job. choose a career. choose a family. choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disk players and electrical tin openers........ Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. choose a starter home. choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. choose DIY and wondering who the fuck u are on sunday morning. choose sitting on the coach watching mind numbing , spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home nothing more than an embarassement to the selfish,fucked-up brats you spawned to replace yourself. choose your future. choose life. but why would i want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? there are no reasons. who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

Choose life. Choose a DZ. Choose a progression system. Choose a rig. Choose a fucknig small canopy. Choose jumpsuits, altimeters, helmets, and cameras. Choose good beer, low pulls, and no insurance. Choose a container. Choose a tie-dye jumpsuit in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose to stay at the bar. Choose packing canopies and wondering “will it mal?” on Sunday morning. Choose sitting at the dz, watching mind numbing spirit crushing weather, stuffing fucking pasties into your mouth. Choose leaving a crater at the end of it all, spreading yourself thinly on the ground nothing more than an embarrasment to the selfish pissed up instructors who taught you. Choose your discipline. Choose RW. But why would I do a thing like that? I chose not to do RW. I chose something else. My reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you have Freefly?

Its been done Alex, some years ago, everyone (in the UK) was wearing 'Skydiving' shirts which mimmicked the Trainspotting logo on the front, and had similar text to yours on the back......

Not to say that a good idea couldn't be revived though, maybe updated to suit this century's jargon and attitudes B|

And its an easy T shirt to get printed up.:)
