Fuck you, you don’t owe it to yourself man, you owe it to me. Cause tomorrow I’m gonna wake up and I’ll be 50, and I’ll still be doing this shit. And that’s all right. That’s fine. I mean, you’re sitting on a winning lottery ticket, and you’re too much of a pussy to cash it in and that’s bullshit. Cause I’d do fucking anything to have what you got. So would any of these fucking guys. It’d be an insult to us if you’re still here in 20 years. Hanging around here is a fucking waste of your time.

“When I’m bored, I call up Radio Pakistan and request a song, then I start dancing. I’ll even dance on a rainy day. It’s my way of expressing how grateful I am. I am the happiest man in Pakistan.” (Passu, Pakistan)

Every John green book: my name is Kirk assgun and I m not cool or popular and I'm bullied everyday because I fuck comic books and I watch this really cool show called the Big Bang theory. But it's okay because I at least have 2 other bros and 1 convenient negro friend. You see that girl over there? That's kaydence Tigerlilly Dookieson. SHe is the love of my life. She is misunderstood and like really cool indie bands like Coldplay and she's been smoking since she was 7. She's not like other girls. If only she would realize that the missing key to her life was me, a greasy white boy

Ishq Mohsin humain maqtal main pukare to sahi Pa'ba zanjeer chale jayenge cham cham karte — Mohsin Naqvi There was this expression in a movie I watched a while back, it goes like, "poetry in translation is like taking a shower with a raincoat on". But I always like your posts. No raincoat. I did translate this one. But I think you can do better. Please, if you don't mind. Thanks

Ah, thank you! Translation isn’t an easy thing to do, you carry the responsibility of communicating the essence words, cultures and histories. I am critical of translations myself. 

Mohsin, should love summon us to be martyred

I shall appear with chains adorning my ankles, 

echoing ‘cham cham’
