{{quote|''Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?''|'''Renton''' ''(the film)''}}

Welsh wrote a sequel, ''Porno'', in 2002 which revisits the characters ten years later as they embark on an attempt to finance and film a pornographic movie. A prequel, ''Skagboys'', which details the characters' descent into heroin addiction, is due out 2012.

* [[Amazingly Embarrassing Parents]]: At the celebration dinner following the suspension of his sentence, Mark Renton's mother: tells Begbie and Sick Boy all about her periods; pinches Renton's cheek and calls him her wee bairn, gleefully informing Begbie and Sick Boy that he ''hates'' being called that; then tops it all off by singing Mark his former 'favorite song,' a little ditty about momma's little baby loving his shortbread. Sick Boy joins in. It's enough to make Renton wish he'd gone to prison instead of Spud. He also feels humiliated many, many times during House Arrest, but as it's the degradation of his own addiction that's being rubbed in his face, that's not exactly applicable (for what it's worth, Mark acknowledges many times that he must be quite shaming to his parents).
