Things about those foreigners that drive us micks CRAZY

adonis

There has been quite the discussion on the other thread about what foreigne people that live here dont like about irish people.
To contradict i would like to know what us Irish people do not like about the obvious influx of foreign people onto these once un-breached golden shores.

i will start with the incessant "phone car" slur directed at me on moore street... I dont know what they are talking about...
i dont know anybody called karl, so why would i call him?

anybody got anything else they would like to relate?

All these "micks"/"mickys" threads are confusing me.

They are too damn attractive. Really pisses me off.

Main thing is those rich spaniard kids who come here during the summer.
Theyre mostly loud, ignorant, messy, annoying and brazen.
eg: 10 of them will go into a fooderie and buy/get one glass of water to share between them. It will just sit on the table all day long while they sit there.

eg: they shout in unnesscarily loud voices on the busses and in confined spaces.

eg: in college, they keep hassling any student who is around at this time of year for their student login, so they can go online.

eg: they dont respect Irish customs or etiquette at all. they are messy and think nothing of dropping rubbish around the place, in parks and the like.


This, perhaps is not something to do with spanish kids, mabye just the ones who come to my town every year. They are rich and spoiled, like.

Nice to have a bit of diversity.

The Spanish students take up a double seat per person. On a packed bus asking politely for them to move their feet or bag off the seat does nothing. You have to pick up their feet or bag to accomplish anything.

Ya you can get some pretty ignorant spanish students alright, noisy feckers...

I agree with the sentiments about the Spanish. Try spending a 12 hour flight with a group of them hollerin' back and forth at each other, it's quite grating.

The hilarious and oft quoted assertion that 'its not like back home', especially common among yankee doodles, kiwis, South Africans and Australians....well doh...ya dont say.....

If another Southern Hemsiphere dimtone tells me about how wonderful life is in the anitipodes compared to our beknighted little country, I'm likely to go nuclear...If its so bloody great etc...etc...etc....and no my friends, sand, sea and surf do not a country make...as your presence here attests, though it does seem to mitigate against intellectual endeavour and cultural pursuits....and no australians, before you start, a barbecue is NOT a cultural pursuit....

Violent, aggressive, territorial eastern europeans also rot my poo, oh and their ability to speak english suddenly evaporating once they engage in divilment, amazing phenomenon. And please,please.... before the PC brigade start bleating, I know I Know, the are are violent agressive Irish people too.....*snore*

Not necessarily, Magoo and I will probably nod and laugh as much at your perceptions/criticisms of us foreigners as ours of you. Can't speak for everyone, but it was never a serious topic then and this one's as open to the same humour and "outdated stereotypical perceptions" as the other.

I don't think your link goes to the right post???

Ok... I'll let you get on with making broad sweeping racist comments, and finding them funny..

Ah well, now if you start factoring in supply and demand and market forces in the context of this thread, we all know which slant it's going to take and, indeed, it will all end in tears

Dyr

no, it will end in politics which will you bore you to tears

I went to the cinema a few years ago and the place was full of them. They kept talking and talking

I hate them ever since, ladies are very attractive though

The loud ignorant masses of Spanish teenagers that take over the streets for the summer. Even when I say "Excuse me" in Spanish to them, they ignore me. Also where I work I come in contact with our Eastern European neighbours quite frequently and it just annoys me when they dont have any english at all (why move to a country where you dont speak the language???) and they expect me to know latvian/russian/polish etc. I swear, at least once a day someone will try converse with me in a foreign language.

Errr, I'm a foreigner = the comments will be aimed at me and my ilk, not made by me!

Now thats an arrogance/ignorance you could aim at the English with no argument from me at all.

So you only find abusive, racist comedy funny when it's aimed at the Irish?

Well I'm not English! When I was in Austria I got by speaking basic German, I already speak Spanish and I'm brushing up on my French for when I go to France, so why would anyone come here with out the basics? I cannot adequately serve anyone in the shop where I work if whenever I try explain anything to them they look at me as if I'm speaking a foreign language (which I am) and say "miszhajdhb sjhfbwihdb". Now this isnt with all foreigners, 95% of them do speak english, and do so very well, but as this is is a thread about what annoys us about foreigners, I'm just ranting about the minority who speak to me in their language and make no effort to learn the language of their adopted home country.

If its any consolation re: The Spanish teens, they're just as bloody bad in their own country, I used to teach the little horrors for a living!

Spot on re: the ex-soviets, cant understand their arrogance, attitude and gargantuan sense of entitlement..i.e. why arent all services available in their own language! Breathtaking!And then to really put the feathered fedora on it the way we try to accomodate them, just learn the bloody language already!!! I've lived in three continental countries and had to learn, indeed expected to have to learn, the language to get along...

Im not one to make sweepin generalisations but......


Spaniards and Italians, for nearly running me down every day on their bikes on my way to and from work. On top of that, Ive found if your walking through a door with one of them infront of you, they seldom if ever hold it open/push it back a bit.

And theyre noisy on the bus

And theyre gorgeous at 17/18 but detoriate rapidly by the mid 20s (which is unfortunate, as I work with a load fro that age group)

And their women have woeful fashion sense

The fact all decent looking Russian/Polish birds have emigrated here with some mafia enforcer boyfriend in tow (thats what always makes me laugh about the "foreign women are deadly" threads, people coming up with lines like "Ive went out with Russian, Polish, Slovak, French, Irish and Italian women, and the Irish are the worst" completely oblivious to the fact that anyone with a brain knows this is a near impossibility due to the large majority of them being here with some lad). Not impossible to get your hole if hes not around, but going out with? Me bollix. These McDonalds and BK birds know their best bet is sticking with a guy who earns 12 an hour on the buildings so she can live like a queen when they go home in 7 years, rather than getting shacked up with an Irish guy on the same wage but who in 7 years will have a murderous mortgage to contend with.

Anyone who worked in a shop/take away will know that a sizeable minority (about a third maybe) of the Nigerians dont say please or thank you

The roma gypsies- nearly as downright shifty as our native ones.

Americans- wah wah, like, you Irish guys drink too much! My mate went out with an American bird, biggest retard I ever met in my life. An 87 year old woman in a 19 year olds body.
