Is Ireland Crap?

DrumSteve

well is it crap?

I personally dont think its that bad.

Terry

No. People who think Ireland is crap are just unimaginative and whiny bitches who think everything should be handed to them on a plate.

So much attack was warranted, there was always the regrettable possibility of collateral damage.

It's a great country, people are just to lazy to go out an enjoy it for what it is.

Get off yer bleedin' computers and go for a walk/cycle around a forrest, or a drive through the mountains.
The weather s fúcking amazing the past while, go to one of our great beachs.

Bleedin' pessimists... :mad:

Chances are it will be around for a few more days at least. Enjoy it while it's here. It will be back too, this year is predicted to be much better than the past two years, do to changes in currents ect... Go to the weather forum for more examples.

I just dont like the way certin things are dearer to buy here than out side the republic.:mad: also the weather too but this summer is looking to be a good one:cool:

mega man

better bring an umbrella just in case.

Biggins

No, its is not crap.
It has its problems - what country hasn't!

- but at least we can still shout about any problems we have, we can write about them, we can protest, we can complain in person or by other means, we can communicate to each other our complaints, we can organise and create meetings of any possible numbers to tackle a problem (in public or private), etc.

Try doing that alone in China, Burma, North Korea for example and still say Ireland is as crap!

your poll is crap never mind Ireland

mle1324

For the adults that say its crap,just wondering is it because of the way Ireland is run by the goverment?

In case this thread was aimed at the state of the economy, Ireland was crap long before it. Crap weather, crap small-minded attitudes.

I think that has all changed in the past 20 years.

Banned.

As for Ireland, if you don't like it then you can git out.

For me yes, because I hate nature

Well, can you elaborate on that a little? What is 'all that'? If you are fortunate enough to live in a broad-minded community, you are lucky. I don't live in a town per sé, but the nearest town is riddled with the most small-minded gossips and racists I've ever come across. But the town in question is not exclusive to this kind of behaviour either.

@Terry, good Sabbath track:cool:, it's crap that they or Heaven And Hell don't play here.:(

It's more of a social thing. I hated that fact that most of my friends, when I lived there, lived for the pub, football and nothing else. Now, while I'm all for this once in a while, there IS more to life. This is what I mean by unimaginative.

Don't get me wrong - I'm NOT saying it's "crap" - just unimaginative.

Hate to shock you but some people actually like the weather here.

Why? We don't get much dry air, its usually moist and above all, we dont get the searing heat.

Some foreigners from hot countries i've met have stated they prefer the weather here than back at home because its tolerable than living every sweaty day at a constant 35C.

Hmm ... from a very low base as they say. The sunday business post happened to ask a few mobile service providers why they don't offer porn services, and couldn't get a straight answer. There are still a few reminders around of the dark old days, and in some ways we're headed back that direction imho

What do you not understand?

Is the heat you experienced today in Ireland affecting you?

The lack of porn on mobiles is problematic? Dude, seriously. Get a hobby.

Purple Gorilla

Ugh...people who think Ireland is crap are just jumping on the whole negative nancy bandwagon because they think it's cool to hate Ireland.

What is there to hate about it? The accent has all the American girls drooling, we have a day that is celebrated internationally just for us etc...

Everyone is pretty nice and it's laid-back here...Sure I'm only 17 but I love it here! And that's after living a few months in the US... Just yesterday I was in a field with friends...there was alcohol being consumed :P And the Gardaí came and all they did was go "It's ok lads, we were young once too. We won't take your drink but be sensible and keep it down" and they just walked off! It was legendary! Don't know where else that would happen! And an American guy who came to my school for a year was with us yesterday (he's going back to the US on Monday) and he says his time in Ireland was the best of his life and he's coming back for College...

To summarise: I Ireland

Holsten

Yes, yes it is.

I had money I'd be gone.

Fluorescence

No it's not crap! Parts of it are a little backwards perhaps, but on the whole we are in what we must remember is a 1st world country. We could do a lot worse then Ireland (which I love )

No, not problematic, but shows that the residue of the Catholic Church remains. I couldn't care less one way or the other, though your comment about me needing to get a hobby just for pointing it out further illustrates my point ... "hang up", namely.

Ireland is not crap its a great place just gotta find things to do think outside the concrete box.
However Ireland is in the crapper but thats another thread:P
