    ..."as long as you don't rent to n*gg**s, that's okay".

    I suspect by "n*gg**s" he means anyone not born in Ireland. He's not very bright.

    Being the hero that I am......:rolleyes:......I told him "go **** yourself".

    So, we're not talking now. Oh woe.

    Incidentally, he's an able-bodied man, father of two, who has been unemployed "for as long as I can remember", as he proudly told me.

    But that's okay, he's Irish.

    We're a great little country.

    Tell him Beyonce was looking to move in, but you didn't want to upset him.

    Have you tried Ctrl Alt Del?

    But make sure you press them all at the same time.

    Unless you're a Mac user. In which case you're laughin'.

    I doubt he ever sat it, to be honest. He'd view education as gay.

    Cheek of him. Ya should put up a "no irish need apply" sign for the laugh.

    True enough, the neighbour said: "go ahead with your n*gg*rs, make my ****in' day, ya ****in' scumbag ya". After that the conversation went downhill.

    I saw one of those tribal African lads in Cork a few years back beating his drum. I told him that I didn't like the sound of it.

    It didn't resonate very well

    Fair point! Especially if they're non-national naggers.

    You could also 'lease' the address to all of the people flying in to collect their dole and children's allowance once a month.

    Then you could fill the house will homeless people off of the street, just to balance out your karma.

    The comments are at least funny.

    I was approached by somebody wanting to buy a property from my family. Very respectable accountant. He didn't say anything racist himself by saying he had a plumber in who said
    "It is getting very dark around here".
    I looked at him blankly and then he said in a hushed voice "You know with all the Nigerians".
    I continued to look blankly at him and there was an awkward silence for a bit and said "So did you continue to use the racist plumber or was it just a bad taste comment?"
    It then turned into him deflecting by saying it amazing what some people say to people they don't really know blah blah...

    He was trying to get the property cheaper because he hoped I would perceived a value drop based on skin colour of people in the area. The unfortunate reality is some people will/would avoid areas due to skin colour. This will combine with the fact most immigrants are lowly paid that a real stigma could appear in areas.

    If I was in that same situation I would only interview and rent the house to the people he is so fond of.

    Maybe he was unhappy about "They took yer jobs"?

    Should have come back with the classic Irishness of playing stupid and said something like

    "Ah yeah, but sure the clocks will be moving forward soon and then there'll be a great stretch in the evenings"

    Just to see someone try to explain themselves in that situation is worth it.

    "Well I'm not a racist but..."

    Please oh please invite every person you know who isn't european to your house for night of exotic cultures rave, with all the latest in carribean dance hall, Indian rave and westside rap.

    I'd pay to see the expression of your neighbour afterwords, then again he might "ge da lads rond to batttttttttrrrrrrrrr yizzzzzzzzzz" or something along those general lines.

    A lad I know(not a friend or anything) Is as bad if not worse than the lad in the OP's story. He lives in London and there was a big group in the pub at a function and he was telling a few of us(out loud no shame at all) that if his daughter ever came home with a n****r or or anybody from anywhere further east than Germany basically he would kick the **** out of him and disown his daughter on the spot. He then went on to say that its not natural to be mixing with them dirty n*****s etc etc. He is Irish btw but has been living in London for a few years. I have been told he is always talking like this.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again: we need to step up our inter-breeding to create a unified race of beige humanoids. All our problems will then be over. Unless we then start discriminating on equally frivolous grounds e.g. right-handed versus left-handed, inny bellybutton versus outty bellybutton, can roll tongue versus can't etc.
