There's a waiting list I hear. Contact Pighead. Not to worry though once your name comes up he'll come for you straight away.

Seriously dude - get down to Galway -Perfect excuse presents itself in form of boards beers 19th of December!!

You could be celebrity Boardsie (out of all 5 that turn up) the butch Americian one!:D

I gotta ask- you don't have one of those whiny high pitched massively expressive accents though - do ya?

Kintarō Hattori · 08-12-2008 10:16PM

Hmnn any young american ladies I've ever dealt with have been very far from butch. Just as feminine as the european ladies. Now the older american women, that's a different story.

Nope, I'm a visiting student in my last year of uni. But it seems to me that every time someone mentions UCD to a Trinity student, their eyes glow red and they seek carnage. Perhaps I haven't yet learned the intricacies of the UCD/Trinity relationship.

Will do. But he better not be one of those metrosexual Dubliners with eyebrows more perfectly groomed than my own.

Pffft... Perhaps the two of you could get swept up in a whirlwind romance that unites the two universities. Kinda like Romeo and Juliet gone right.

But the other BBs are on the 20th! How long does a train ride take from Dublin to Galway? I'd definitely come! Butch American Boardsie, ftw!!

Lol, I probably do have an annoying accent. I dunno, no one's commented on it yet. (Not to my face, anyway.

)

But Romeo and Juliet were like, 14. I think that ship has sailed. Bring on the hate! :pac:

I think rotten fruit is one step over the line, man. I can't handle that smack. We'll go with your first idea so.

He falls somewhere between Rick Astley and Shane McGowan on the spectrum. I hope that helps.

Perhaps, if I hadn't graduated from UC-double-D two years ago.

Edit: The UCD/Trinity thing only lasts for your first year (and maybe a bit) in college. Then, if you're in Trinity, you realise that you're in college with a load of ogres and would be better-off broadening your horizons. If you're in UCD, D, you're anyone's. Indiscriminately.

Lirange · 08-12-2008 10:36PM

All degreed up and nobody to matriculate with. Ah.

RonMexico · 08-12-2008 10:37PM

I know many American wimminz and I have to say they are far more desirable than the swampdonkeys that pass for wimminz here.

All the Yankee wimminz that I know are hot and wouldn't be seen dead in a GAA jersey and tracksuit bottoms.

Having gone out with a UCDer (oh, the shame), I can fully attest to the veracity of your post. Hate sex is definitely the best kind.

Saruman · 08-12-2008 11:07PM

Well i can speak from experience.
Im married to one and have been around Americans all my life.
American women are not butch nor have i ever even heard them referred that way by Irish people

Irish girls are more stuck up and far less friendly.

I think they are ogres! They all seem sort of stuck up. Not all of them, but lots. Sort of up their own arses a bit. What a horrible traitor I am.

Lol, swampdonkeys, that's a new one. I see beautiful women everywhere in Dublin. Like, they could be models. It's sort of ridiculous.

American wimminz go to class in their pajamas. Not me, of course. :rolleyes:

I second that motion!
although it could just be the lure of the exotic wimmins
I'm in cork and there's some right swampdonkeys down here

hullaballoo · 09-12-2008 01:11AM

Swampdonkey is definitely now in my Friday night abuse lexicon for muckmunchers. Thanks for that.

tribulus · 09-12-2008 01:16AM

Having never been there and no intentions of going I only have porn and tv to go off, so no, you're all in great shape!

LolaLuv · 09-12-2008 01:16AM

What is a muckmuncher and why don't I know the words the cool kids know?

Red Hand · 09-12-2008 01:35AM

Butch? No. They would have a reputation for being loud maybe? And the typical Irish male (outside of middle class Dublin that is) is going to clam up amongst loud people (unless drunk).;)

Whereas, down the country, there are the more masculine of us male Irish, with our pasty white skin, freckles and hairy backs. We're no soft handed metrosexuals! :mad: No cafe lattes and bagels for us!:mad: Them foppish scholars with their iPods and youtunetubes and their bleeding Che Guevarra T shirts!:mad:

Black tea, strips of boiled bacon and slices of bread as thick as bricks-that' what we thrive on! That and cursing! Going out to a f*cking bog in the middle of nowhere and pulling fecking great big tree shtumps out of the ground with our bare shovel-like hands is our greatest joy. The bog is our university. It is out great love.

There is nothing like a bunch of burly countrymen going round in the flogging horizontal rain, shouting at the top of their lungs as they sunder apart great stumps and rocks with nothing but metal bars.

Jesus, I weep thinking of it.

Do you think American women are butch?
