Place: Large estate on the South-Side of Glasgow, with more junkies and scumbags per square inch (3.3Cm)than the rest of Scotland. The area has multi-storey flats which attract 'The Salt Of The Earth'.
This area also sees teenage pregancies as a way to obtain council dwellings, methadone habits in kids of the same age, and women with scars/forearm tattoos.
Main attraction is the 'Somerfield' where you can steal batteries for your walkman, and the 'Greggs the Bakers' where the local junkies can bee seen eating a 'Fudge Donut' with the remaining 3 teeth still left in their head.

Tourist - "I hear that Glasgow is a very picturesque city, with a strong line of architecture, and culture. Where do you recommend I visit first?"

Get the Gorbals mug.Gorbals is that one piece of shameful evidence of historical exploitation done to a people, gang-raped by The English. It is the very first organized public housing system that housed many a vulnerable/impoverished person and family. It is a single piece of information that reveals that government/city developers did not know anything about human nature of evolution before they forced folks into this Concrete Jungle. The Gorbals, as with any ghetto, is set up to 'frag' the people not in power.
If one wishes to see the decay of family integrity one need only look at the families that have been forced to reside in the Gorbals.

Get the gorbals mug.The feeling that the American, and general western liberal elites in the media, politics and academia get when they contemplate all the actions of Mikhail Gorbachev--the man they credit with bringing peace to the world, mostly since they hate Ronald Reagan (That cowboy!) too much to credit him with the fall of the Soviet Union. Whether or not they see that development as a bad thing is another story in itself...
A Gorbasm, ladies & gentlemen, is fake. A Gorbasm is a phony feeling of bliss and euphoria. Mikhail Gorbachev was credited by the media, and by many liberals in this country, with preserving the peace and security of the planet threatened by warmonger Ronald Reagan, and with bringing freedom to Eastern Europe and what used to be the Soviet Union.
To me, the Reagan defense buildup showed that we could maintain a world-class defense and a first-class economy, and the Soviets crumbled trying to keep up.
The time for worldwide jubilation was the day the USSR disintegrated. Gorbachev’s ouster has given the best reason in the world to have that one final, but sincere, Gorbasm. For now that the communist regime has imploded, there truly is a chance for lasting peace.

Get the Gorbaler mug.A saying from the olden days.
It means that something is good and filling/fatty, this was mostly used to explain how good certain meat was!
It is now more commonly used in fighting games when an attack does alot of damage to your opponent.
