hangoverplaces


Reflections upon how little information the little word 'hungover' conveys to the listener. Being hungover is not one state, but many under one convenient but uninformative banner. Therefore, take the names of towns and utilize their
particular qualities to describe EXACTLY what a hangover is like. Thus:

Beirut: was particularly bad for some time, but now appears to be getting
better.
Brussels: all you can do is sit on your arse and talk about things that you're
going to do but which never get done.
Riyad: very dehydrated and you've lost all your taste.
Milton Keynes: life has lost its joy and meaning and you keep going round in
circles.
Walsall: everybody is ugly and you have no idea what they're going on about.
Coventry: nobody is talking to you.
Katowice: everybody keeps annoying you and won't leave you alone.
Rotterdam: hardcore; it won't stop pounding...
Ostrava: a dirty, painful place to be ;-)
Aberdeen: no idea where it came from and why it exists.
Birmingham: not as bad as it should be.
Fribourg: dull normality: here yesterds

London: Dirty, polluted; too much happening for you to take in.
Stoke: you have lost your memory and you hate everything.

Tokyo: completely disoriented, you dont know whether you're underground or in mid-air...one moment you're in the future, the next you're in the past...                         Berlin: everywhere you go, you're confronted by events of the recent past...     Hiroshima: after an event of cataclysmic destruction, everything is new...

Valletta: You feel dusty, sticky and hot, and your vision is hazy, you feel like you are in a different century and disapproving old people stare at you.
