Nothing disgusting what so ever about his comment.
I saw a guy today on the railway station, let me explain what made this gentleman get stuck in my memory.
He was sitting in his wheelchair buttnaked reeking like a sewage treatment plant, his feet were covered in open wounds which have gone mouldy pretty bad. Hadn't I needed the money to buy some smokes I'd probably have given him a buck or two. And yeah, if it wasn’t Monday but let’s say Wednesday I’d claim it wouldn’t even be among the top 5 most disgusting things I’ve seen since the start of the week.
It's all about the experiences in everyday life that toughen you up and prevent you from going loco.
