    Which Irish historical would you go for a pint with?

    Irish historical what?

    What is with people using adjectives as nouns all of a sudden? It's like this new marketing trend that has appeared recently. I can just imagine the haircuts that come up with this stuff.

    -"We want to say that we support brave people"
    -"Let's just say "We're backing brave"
    -"But that sentence doesn't make sense?"
    -"What's your point?
    -"My point is that I hate stupid"
