You guys know anything about the IRA?

Mr. Spock · 2011-02-22 21:15:24

I read about it in a Tom Clancy book last year. Seeing as this is an Irish board, and I'm a stupid American, I figured I'd ask. So tell me. What is it? Are you guys part of it?

Yes, I know a bit about the IRA. It stands for Irish Rastafarian Appreciators. Basically it's a non-profit society to promote Reggae Music, Legalising It and improved diplomatic relations with both Jamaica and Ethiopia. They do a lot of good work.

What ? The International Reading Association ?

Why it's an association that aims to provide descriptions of effective reading practices around the world.

Yes, all Irish people are members of the IRA. By the way, just watched a film on the southern American states, tell me, are you a member of the KKK?

But which IRA do you mean?

The Official IRA?
The Provisional IRA?
The Real IRA?
The Unreal Tournament IRA?
The IRA-lite? (now with 50% less Semtex)
The I-can't-believe-it's-not-the IRA?

Once you've heard the two of us, then maybe you'll get an idea of what they really are (and I'll be all 'Tiocfaidh at La' etc.)
