Back from the brink
Posted in Blog by Twenty Major on May 14th, 2008
There was much joy in Ron’s last night as in walked Dirty Dave, looking a bit more dirty and dishevelled than normal, but very much alive.
Stinking Pete, I don’t mind telling you, cried like a little baby, weeping tears of pus and various other body juices at the return of his great friend. There was some back-slapping and even Ron himself bought Dave a pint, so considerate is he to the needs of his customers.
“Where have you been?”, blubbed Pete. “We were so worried about you, weren’t we lads?!”
There were some coughs and the odd muttered ’sure, sure’ as people found their feet incredibly interesting for some reason.
“Well, I was utterly distraught on Friday when I realised I would never find true love. And it hurt me like I can’t even begin explain. Which of us does not seek companionship, someone to hold late at night when you’ve woken from a bad dream in which your eyeball falls out and then when you put it into a bowl to keep it safe you forget there’s water in the bowl and your eyeball, which is somehow made up of coloured rice, melts and becomes nothing but murky water? Who doesn’t long to feel the caress of a beautiful woman on their leathery balls?”
“Elton John!”, said Pete.
“Well, apart from Elton John”.
“Senator David Norris!”, said Pete.
“Yeah, well apart from Elton John and Senator David Norris. And don’t. We could be here all day. Now, I realise I have issues with personal hygeine but my boquet should not be an impediment to happiness. Lord knows I’ve tried. Lifeboy soap, Swarfiga, you name it, I’ve scrubbed myself with it but I am simply a redolent invididual and that is it. I mean, if Simon Weston can get his hole now and again there’s no reason why I shouldn’t be able to”.
“Have you tried Club M?”
“Not recently but that’s not the point. The point is that the sadness I felt, the aching chasm of despair that was opened up in me when I saw just how lonely my life was going to be until my dying day, led me to believe that I’d be better off dead. So I turned my phone off and considered it. Would it hurt? What was the quickest, most efficient way of doing it? Where would I do it? Should I leave a note? What should it say? And I won’t lie to you, I gave it all careful consideration. In the end I decided that I would take an overdose of sleeping pills with a bottle of cognac so I could go peacefully in my bed.”
“So what happened?”, asked an enthralled Pete.
“After writing my note explaining my reasons and saying my goodbyes I turned my phone back on to listen to the messages, to hear my friends voices one last time. Pete, I couldn’t understand a word you were saying on the messages you left”.
“Sorry, Dave. I was fucked out of my head on booze and crack cocaine that I bought from some lad outside the Central Bank. You know when I get worried I need to take hard drugs”.
“Yeah. I know. You mad cunt. Jimmy, I know you’re not a man of many words so I understand why you didn’t leave a message. Or you Splodge. Or you Ron. Or you Lucky.”
“I’m a not know you a missing. Spend all of a the weekend in Dundrum a shopping centre with Elisa to look for a the baby clothes. Little Lucky a coming.”
“Yeah, whatever. But there was one man who reached out to me. One man who brought me back from the brink. Whose message was so full of passion for life that I realised that I couldn’t go through with it. And for that I’ll always be grateful … Twenty”.
“What did you say, Twenty? What the fuck did you say?”, said Jimmy.
“It’s nothing, really”, I said, slightly embarrassed at having my private messages made public.
“Come on, tell us!”, said Ron.
“Yeah, tell us!”, said Pete.
“Nah … I … erm …”
“It’s ok, Twenty”, said Dave softly. “Tell them”.
“I just said … basically … well, it was … erm … basically I just told him that I’d already written about half my second book with him in it and if he killed himself I’d have to start all over again and if that happened I’d find a way to bring him back to life and I’d kill him again in the most painful way I could possibly imagine”.
“I love you, Twenty”, said Dave.


Number one’s never as good as number two…

Always knew you were a soft hearted bastard, perhaps you should form a love triangle with Morgor and MB
May 14th, 2008 at 9:24 am
2
Kind of you to make the suggestion but I’ll leave them to super-AIDS each other up.
May 14th, 2008 at 9:29 am
3
I once had an awful dose of super-AIDS but I plopped it out. A good plop can solve almost any issue that needs solving. Especially unwanted company.
May 14th, 2008 at 9:31 am
4
I think their love has transcended super-AIDs and moved ontoto MEGA-AIDS

God, your a beautifully compassionate man twenty, brings a tear to the eye
May 14th, 2008 at 9:43 am

A tear to the japs-eye more like..

Are you writing a second book? You should have mentioned it
May 14th, 2008 at 9:47 am

Twenty
Sure you have all the characters for a new book in all the morgors. No fucking need for anyone else

Descent into Morgor?
May 14th, 2008 at 10:00 am
10
“Descent into Morgor”
I think that’s what MB is aiming for (with Morgor’s consent , I must add)
May 14th, 2008 at 10:01 am
11
IT wasnt you then on the Last Word with Matt Cooper last night then..Your book isn’t called the Green Marine..
Thats ok then..
May 14th, 2008 at 10:08 am
12
Maria,
was that the Irish Marine who kept lapsing into ‘me and my buddies’ talk?
May 14th, 2008 at 10:12 am

God yeah …We are Marines …Their my brothers…Blah Blah ..I wanted to drive to Dublin and shoot him myself..Was hoping for some whimsical debate on the Green Marine…
May 14th, 2008 at 10:36 am
16
The only good marine is a big marine called Camouflage.
May 14th, 2008 at 10:38 am
17
Twenty ..I think that book is based on Camouflage.I think the Green Marine wants to be Camouflage..that and watching WAY to much TV as a child.
May 14th, 2008 at 10:43 am
18
And may he go the same way as Camouflage…

Jesus Major, you have brought back a whole load of memories there, of drawing the dole and drinking it all whilst some mentaller put that song on the juke box fifty times. Ahh pints of Special and Mad Dog 20/20

“In the end I decided that I would take an overdose of sleeping pills with a bottle of cognac so I could go peacefully in my bed.”
Jesus, if Dirty Dave topped himself like that Elton John would probably have to sing a tribute song to him.
Something like ‘Candle in the Downwind’
May 14th, 2008 at 10:52 am
21
Yeah Maria. He was truly a gobshite. Joined the marines because of 11/9. Then when asked how he felt about occupying a nation that had nothing to do with it, his reply was “I’m just a soldier, me and my buddies, following orders, I’m not political”.
The only difference between him and the average low IQ yank soldier was the Irish link. Reckon it must be the 2nd worst book ever…
May 14th, 2008 at 11:02 am
22
Too much mentioning of Jesus!
Stop it now.

During a discussion on RTE, our Green Marine said “Sometimes when you are ordered to do something (invade Iraq, kill sundry brown children, listen to Damien Rice) you don’t ask questions, you just press the “I believe” button.
It was at this point that I pressed the “Oh for fuck sake” button, turned up the “this guy’s a moron” dial and powered off everything on my “listening to him for one moment longer” console
May 14th, 2008 at 11:18 am

Rob.
I like your style.

Ugh, as if the americans don’t go on about 9/11 enough, now we’ve got fuckwit Irish muppets going on about it.
Religious fuckwit Irish muppets. Grrrrr.

Maybe he Likes killing Brown Babies?..maybe its a hobby of his?..
May 14th, 2008 at 11:42 am
27
that’s fucking hilarious stuff
May 14th, 2008 at 11:48 am
28
SG - Reckon it must be the 2nd worst book ever…
Dare I ask what the 1st is?
May 14th, 2008 at 11:51 am
29
Ah, morgor! The very man!
I think Peurile has been whacking himself off to the idea of me ‘n’ you banging each other.
Send me a nude photo and I’ll do some Photoshoppery to help him on his way. A ‘bending-over’ pose would be nice.

that dave is weak … he should have tasted the gun mental in his mouth and said fuck you god and pulled the trigger.
May 14th, 2008 at 12:02 pm
32
A ‘bending-over’ pose would be nice.
How about my take on the famous tennis girl poster?
(scratching my hairy arse in a skirt)
May 14th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
33
The Japanese know how to kill themselves like real men.
By shoving steel into your belly.
May 14th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
34
Remington Steel?
May 14th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
35
SG - Gillian McKeith - Is she that horrible mad thing that has a root through fat peoples shit and then tells them that from the smell and the texture they’re eating too much fat and not enough fibre. Stupid cunt, can she not tell this by looking at the fat fuck she’s dealing with.
Mind you if she’s capable of analysing your turds what is she capable of in bed. Give on the dirt….
May 14th, 2008 at 12:11 pm
36
Remington Steel?
Mmmm, why not. it’d be a unique way to kill yourself I suppose.
May 14th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
37
Apparently she can make you pop a load with one cleverly placed touch of one of her bony fingers
May 14th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
38
why do all the posts eventually get around shitting the last while?
May 14th, 2008 at 12:20 pm

Second book? Another three quid in the Amazon coffers then…
May 14th, 2008 at 12:21 pm
40
yeah morger its called Seppuku, or the plebs call it hari-kiri which literally means stomach cutting
U know Ive never understood why people generally kill themselves alone ..
why not just top yourself at a premier league match by running on the pitch in a man utd v arsenal game and blowing your head off .
Or why not in the middle of grafton street get out a sword and go and cut your own head off
Its like “hell is other people” so why not let these people see what they have inflicted on the person
May 14th, 2008 at 12:22 pm
41
MMMMMmmm - sounds interesting - might be alright with a blindfold and some ear muffs so you dont have to look at or listen to her.

The brother used to have a big hard on for that laura colt in remington steel . he always sneaked off to the toilet during the breaks ..
May 14th, 2008 at 12:24 pm

May 14th, 2008 at 12:25 pm

I am feeling something coming in on the brainwaves from Brian.
-He is feeling dirty, now that the boyfriend has gone to work. He’s already had three showers, but it’s no good.
-wait a minute…there’s something else coming through…. Yes, what’s that Brian?
-He’s wondering what the average Twenty Major reader profile is. He’s jealous that he hasn’t got some handy no-brainer job, where he could post stupid comments all day.
You’re fading Brian, think louder!
-something, something, something, sense of humour.
Hmmmm!
May 14th, 2008 at 12:50 pm

Semicide: wouldnt that be killing yourself while being Mildly aroused?

“Mr Cooper also could not explain why 24 people were asked to contribute to the £56,000 cost of buying St Luke’s when the old office in Amiens Street was sold for the exact same sum.”

And organdonor, it would be the “semi” that is getting killed, so you would have to be on a vibrating bus, having a nice old time of it, and suddenly see Jo Brand doing the tennis girl pose mentioned earlier…
May 14th, 2008 at 1:28 pm
53
It think without immediate medical care ,that it would be fatal..at least though you could die gushing..technically the wrong fluid but gushing all the same…hurry up with that photo morgor!!
