Therdspotting: 2014

A heartfelt message from Danny Boyle, Irvine Welsh, John Hodge, Ewan McGregor and me to Masahiro Wada, in June, 2014:


Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a flipping big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin can openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of flipping fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the heck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing flipping junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, breathing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, messed-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life . . . Choose Therdsak in your starting XI!
