    When the heat from bombs is hot enough to turn sand into glass.

            I don’t really mean anything, I was just amused by the idea of the english meaning of “glassing” being the same as the military meaning, but nothing else being changed. There’s no depth to it, I just found myself chuckling at the image of some old geezer going “oi mate!” and then just… explosion over a disagreement about when tottenham was most shit

              Actually that has me giggling. I’ve never seen anyone get glassed, though. I’ve heard numerous stories though, probably mostly bollocks, cause that’s what people do. Bet they’re all based on this scene.
