    if you were asked for some positives about living in ireland then what would you say?

    the weathers unpredictable but it means you have to go on holiday regularly to really nice places

    excellent culture scene, small cities with good close knit scenes no matter what you're into

    totally apolitcal society, just voted against the lisbon treaty because they couldn't be bothered trying to understand so they kick to touch

    having an argument with them depends on how much they've drank to decide whether or not they agree with what you are saying - when i say how much it usually means days, not bottles

    theres nothing prettier than an irish girl

    alcohol - mosts of its best known brands names are based on beer, whiskey and cider

    Tbh I think he was preempting the inevitable band of people complaining about prices, drinking, women and so on.

    On the flipside I'd gladly admit us Irish men are some of the ugliest people around, you notice it abroad especially, our mutton heads and crap haircuts and no sense of dress can be spotted a mile away.

    That bollox is dead. You must have heard someone else say it.

    Jigsaw say, "If you are prone to failure, do not pursue that at which you fail and attempt to acquire a life".

    Change to 40 posts per page, then it will only be 15 pages long.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,173 ✭✭✭✭kmart6


    Or just have one continuous page so people will only read the first and last 5 posts!:D
