    Finnish, they have great music, cool language and incredibly sexy men.

    Most obviously Japanese, but that's not to say I don't like being Irish, even if the Irish music industry does make me want to hide my head in shame.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭shane86


    definitly jamacian :D

    lol, I second that :D

    For me, probably

    Dutch, cos theyre the West Europeans that are culturally most like the Irish

    Polish/ex Soviet etc- because I could come here, stockpile my money, go back home and live like a king

    Australia- the women are beautiful, and the whole place is just mad bastard central



    Wouldnt fancy being Spanish, Chinese or any other country where irresponsible drinking is culturally frowned upon. Having said the above, the weather is ****e, the football team is ****e, theres alot of pretentious bastards amongst us but still, cant bate being Irish :D

    I'd be Chinese or Japanese but only if i could travel back in time and be a monk or samurai respectively.

    If time travel wasn't an option i'd be Japanese, Spanish or Dutch.

    I'd hate to be American or Australian.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,820 ✭✭✭Vorsprung


    Australian for me!

    I'd able to surf well, and I wouldn't be pasty white. And Irish girls would swoon at my accent!!

    Breaking news for ya bud...the sixth commandment is thou shalt not kill.

    You say loose….I say hypocritical, Mr. Soprano.

    I happily renounced my Catholicism aged 12 after I coined it in on my Confirmation day.

    California (if it was to become independent of the USA)*







    *Would be the 5th leading nation in GDP (state economy is booming).
    *Is demographically and internationally diverse (and becoming more so).
    *Almost produces enough oil to meet it's needs.
    *Produces a surplus in agriculture.
    *Has it's problems, but would be in a better position to correct them if it's billions in taxes were not wasted on tragic and useless wars.
    *Has grand beaches, mountains, valleys, deserts, and places to live, work, and play (other areas could be improved with now wasted tax dollars).
    *Vast majority voted against Bush in both presidential elections.

    Icelandic because of the women (Oh God, the women....) or Japanese for the culture. Or some strange hybrid of both, like Japanalandic.

    I'd like to have dual nationaity Irish and Australian.
    That way I could go back there and work without
    having to get sponsored and all that jazz.

    I could also amaze the Aussie ladies with my pearly
    white legs and amazing ability to get sunburn, in
    10 degrees even when I'm inside wearing factor 50+
    and a jumper.

    God I miss that place ...
