We've all met at least one in our lives.
People whose whole "point of being" is in living for the "pub" and whose demand for attention from the landlord, made obvious from noon until dusk,
starting with some pleasant banter,
but quickly degrading as the "tipple takes hold" and bolder thoughts and beliefs,are spoken out loud.
Garralous gossips, rants about everything from their own own business to everyone else's business and further sinking into the inevitable oblivion causes confusion to everyone but the ranter.
The barman smiles,
appreciative of the fact that the twerp on the other side of his bar is spending so much money, that he the barman can afford a quick jaunt to Barbados or some other far flung place,
The twerp, blissfully unaware of the thoughts and beliefs of his audience,
as he carries on regardless.
What a fool, the bottle makes of the tiresomely talkative chappie, whose neighbourly chatter and worldly woes led him into the bar.
