    I'm sitting here ( at work ) and 4 Spaniards come in to play games, after actually showning them where the games folder is on the pc's they then complain about not getting into any cs servers, already my patience is wearing thin, so I get them into a Spanish server, and then for those of you who don't know cs a little thing comes up when you join a server asking whether or not you want to be a counter-terrorist, terrorist or spectator, they start complaining again because, apparently they can't join the game, needless to say all that is required is pressing one button for this choice, but no they gotta make an issue of it :mad: Then they get sick of cs and begin playing mohaa, of course they don't know how to start that up either. Usually I would'nt have any problem showing this to people, only they have to make an issue out of it. Once they start playing games they turn the speakers right up, every single one of them, I even give them headphones, but no that won't do, they HAVE to use the speakers to pronounce to everyone in the cafe that they are playing games. As I speak they are banging there heads and jumping around the place causing a racket and are VERY close to being kicked out, with aggresive force. Anyway they were wrecking my head so I started this thread. I reckon I'll put up a poll too...........................

    P.S. Not a rascist thread.

    P.P.S I've got nothing against any people in any other nationality there, most of them were suggested by Dustaz :p

    Ergo, all foreigners are annoying....

    I'm going with the good old yanks as usual, although the Spanish with their fish-stealing almost made it. TBH though the people who have pissed me off most the last few days have been my countrymen. Ah well. Blaming the yanks is more fun :)

    Apart from that Spanish students who walk through Dublin 20 abreast down the footpath annoy me a little.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭Wolf


    I find its not foriengers but tourists that are the biggest problem BUT outa them all the AMERICANs are easliy the worst when they cant get there e-mail and expect you to go "OOOOOARRRR il just go kick meh donkeh and get the land lord to give meh a beatin by gubbin want a cup of pig **** fresh from the hovel" Then you show them that in fact using a computer here is the same as "at home" show them up to be total ignorant in every way then they go all quiet an annoyed.
