oooohhhhhhh . . .
No, Gato, don't get up. Just sit there on the curb for awhile. The dizziness & nausea will pass.
Completely natural after a smackdown like that. Nothing to be ashamed of, really.

Nice one Denz. I think in Korea, just about everything can be excused so long as you were drunk at the time..
in london i actually punched my bosses lights out one time- ..wasn't drunk, just really angry. fled to australia after that, and hearing he was connected to the west end mafia.
In Korea, the angriest I've been with my boss was telling him i was quitting. Took it all back the following monday- worked in winning me some concessions though.. |
