Your Personal Heaven

^ Sorry to disappoint, Fluff, but I'm not into football tbh:-

Plus Fluff would be there so that he could handle the football stuff on my behalf.

^ I posted this so that I wouldn't have to bother about any football at all in heaven. Sorry.

(Only once did I go to a football match as an adult, because I was friendly with a couple of Brentford supporters at work and they said I should give it a try. So we met in a Brentford pub then walked to the football ground, only to stand in the cold drizzle of a winter's day. For me it was about as exciting as waiting for a bus, but in pre-mobile days, you couldn't suddenly be called away to some social emergency elsewhere. Nonetheless, I had half an hour to think up an escape plan and at halftime I came up with the most feeble excuse of my life: putting on a troubled face I said, "Hey guys, I've just remembered that my library books are due back! If I leave now, I'll just have time to get there before the library closes!")

Library books

I've been to some bad matches too tbh. Maybe you were just unlucky

An unbelievable amount of drugs, music and beer. As it's heaven I'd even be on that 55.36% abv lemon infused IPA stuff that Frown drinks.

I'd spend the days just relaxing in the pool in my garden and getting the barbecue going, wearing shorts and abusing drugs and alcohol. In the evenings I'd invite the local hotties round for card games, a glass of sherry and a sing song round the piano.

Once a week, I'd watch some football on the big screen. Invite the lads round. Villa are top of the league, and challenging for honours on all fronts. It is heaven after all.

I'd have a pet jaguar that doesn't bite.

Nice. You forgot the daily Prince concerts in your garden though.
Also, would the jaguar be an E-Type?

^ Even with the occasional cry of forlorn encouragement, ( Come on, you "B"s !), the home team only managed a nil-nil result apparently. As for me, I went to the library and felt as happy as if I had escaped from prison!

And it's basically vertical with a balcony pool where one poorly aimed butterfly stroke could drop you to your death. Mike's house isn't as cool but his backyard is gnarly and a tennis court in the air is just about the coolest place to chill with a beer at sunset.

Full-time but the only class I teach is Advanced Blunt Rolling and I got an enemies with benefits thing going on with Mystique.

A point perhaps to consider - I know this is all in fun and nobody expects this to happen but still: the old adage, "sometimes your dreams coming true can be your biggest nightmare". Well, maybe it's not an adage: maybe I made it up. But the sentiment holds true. If everything works out exactly as you want every single time, wouldn't it eventually get boring? Fluff, if you knew Villa would win every single match, wouldn't you finally get fed up watching them? Isn't the whole idea about footy the unexpected, the chance that something different might happen? If you knew the results, or could accurately predict it every time, would it be worth watching? How long can eternity be before everything gets boring? Would you still love the music you love now - those albums, both of you who mentioned them - 1,000,000,000 years from now? Something to think on, perhaps.

Well of course Magneto would have to catch these hands or what's the point?

I wouldn't know the results. But they would dominate the league and become a force in Europe, winning the European Cup once more and becoming the world's most powerful club again. I wouldn't get bored of watching them overtake Milan, Bayern and Real in trophies and growth, and seeing VP expanded to 100k 💜💙💜💙💜

I will love the music I like forever and the artists will visit sometimes and drop off new albums they have been working on.

He already gave up Love/Hate but any thread that gives me an excuse to talk about the X-Men is great.
