@fmf saidI often reference Bradford and do so with the implication of it being a paradise on Earth. (Despite never having been there). Indeed, my published work had the Greek Gods relocating from Olympus to Bradford, primarily for the Yorkshire puddings.
He was trying to mention a "bad" place, I reckon. Bradford is 32% South Asian. He probably did it a bit unwittingly.
Nice try though.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidYes, how could I...? Maybe I want to learn more. 🙂
How can you even ask that question? 😲

Speaking of the gods and drinking, the ancient poets tell us that they drank Ambrosia and got very drunk on it.
But speaking of ordinary humans, alcohol is not the only substance which inebriates. Case in point, the phrase "some are drunk on ego" can be interpreted in a few ways. One interpretation is that some people become excessively self-focused, valuing their own egos above all else. One can sometimes easily spot them by the crowns they wear.
Has anyone ever heard of a dry egotist? That is, an egotist who acts the same whether drunk or not.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidNext, I suspect some rambunctious character will dare to ask you what colors were the walls of your lockdown cell. If you provide the information, the character will then try to impress you with his special maddening ability to interpret colors.
