In Heaven there ain't no beer, that's why we drink it here, and when we're gone from here, all our friends will be drinking all our beer.

That is true. If you are a man you would do something about it. But that is if you were a man.....

And if I were a man, I would do something about it. Yep. Guess I'm just a whimpering kitty cat.

In heaven there will be dogs... otherwise it wouldn't be heaven 🐶
There is also grass... how else will we play football (soccer to the heathens) ⚽

I don't know, sounds like my kind of place:
Oh, Fiddler's Green is a place, I've heard tell, Where the fishermen go if they don't go to hell. Where the the skies are all clear and the dolphins do play And the cold coast of Greenland is far, far away.
Where the skies are all clear and there's never a gale And the fish jump on board with one swish of their tail; Where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do And the skippers be all making tae for their crew
And when you get to the docks and the long trip is through There's pubs, and there's clubs, and there's lassies there, too Where the girls are all pretty and the beer is all free And there's bottles of rum growing from every tree

Not those family and friends who are in hell fire though, one imagines. Or those neighbours of a different religious persuasion come to that, facing a similar fate.
Also, not everybody gets to sing in heaven it seems:"Then I looked, and there on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with Him were 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads. I heard a sound from heaven like the sound of cascading waters and like the rumbling of loud thunder. The sound I heard was also like harpists playing on their harps. They sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders, but no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. These are the ones not defiled with women, for they have kept their virginity. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. They were redeemed from the human race as the firstfruits for God and the Lamb. No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless." Revelation 5:8-11
"When He took the scroll, the four living creatures and the 24 elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song: You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because You were slaughtered, and You redeemed ⌊people⌋ for God by Your blood from every tribe and language and people and nation. You made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign on the earth. Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and also of the living creatures and of the elders. Their number was countless thousands, plus thousands of thousands. Revelation 14:1-5
"It is more interesting than that"
The colourful and apocalyptic claims of Revelation aside (and we all know how so much of the Bible is just 'figurative' - right?) heaven seems rather a dull place, ruined by a personality cult. The Muslim heaven sounds a much better deal, being sensuous, and more stimulating all round.

Meh. Hell is not permanent, it's remedial and temporary. You've been told that 100,000 times before. www.tentmaker.org/biographies/barclay.htm

And despite your reliance on the (same) link to substantiate your preferred exegesis, you have been shown just as much what scripture, and other faithists actually say and believe in.
