Difference Between Knowing and Wanting

Being and knowing the vast difference between what I know and think I am I can quite honestly say this about and in regards to myself When it comes to culture and the fineries of all life has on offer One day I should most definitely find the time to take in An Opera , Play or Museum or Live Show Followed by fine dinning out and sampling what other worldly cuisine have t offer But then again I can say for sure probably less than 5 actual minutes in I would also then get and be bored and so end up leaving Swapping it instead for a greasy burger down the high street followed by as many pints of beer I can stomach Until I eventually am forced to throw up to cram in and make space for a few more Then grab another greasy burger for the journey home And fall asleep on the couch in front of the t.v covered in the majority of the burger That missed my mouth from the previous night before Which come in handy and provide a tasty snack for breakfast And due to the fact I am so concusted and all consumed with an almighty hangover It prevents from realizing the sober reality Would staying just 5 minutes longer really have killed me that much more And then I thought yes it would because at least my night out left me with one at least this as apposed to that one would And what that is in fact this I always find when rifling through my trouser pants from the night before At very least a $5 or two and a pocket full of change I can pop down the corner shop to buy myself a few cans of beer to help me get over this god awful hangover

Brilliant Christopher, we are what we are when it comes to refinery and politesse, you enjoy a pint and a burger then good for you, to be honest too much BS standing and clapping for extended periods at shows and plays FFS, call me a Philistine but I know what I like, cheers David
