Irish people are like sand.....

Kalashnikov_Kid

we get everywhere!

Im currently having the pleasure of listening to Ronan Keating's manky accent as a Saturday morning DJ for Radio 2. How the hell did that happen?!

This got me thinking...Do you feel in general that us Irish do better than most nations in mixing within other societies abroad, ultimately leading to higher than normal levels of success for ourselves? Or are we just good at getting other people drunk so we can use them to our personal advantage? :pac:

I was sure this was gonna be:

Irish people are like sand, once they get in your vagina they irritate it and are really hard to get out.

"Is there anybody here with a bitta Irish in them?....Any of the girls here wanna bit more Irish in them?..."

Phil Lynott was so cool. I think half it is a lot of us say what e think but I wouldn't include Mr Keating in that the cynical git. He is the type of person I could see searchng boards for a message about himself.

I dont like you Ronan

On reflection on your thread OP - I believe it was Tommy Tiernan who said it best:

'two people arrive in a foreign destination armed with a sleeping bag and a phone number...they go up to the tallest person in the village - don't mind us we're Irish - we're great craic hahaha - mad as badgers, jaysus i was on the lock last night came back and put the rashers in the toaster.. the two Irish people go into a cottage then they emerge 2 weeks 47 Irish people walk out...'

.... the local council are always trying to stop people removing tonnes of us from the beach in the back of lorries?

Irish people are like sand.. If melted at the correct temperature, they will turn into glass. However, that said glass may not be economically viable to sell due to the shaky economy.

Too much?

They're a reddish colour and they end up fucking everywhere.

I was in the Peruvian Amazon in a remote river village and i thought i heard take that or back street boys or one of those shower. Anyways it turned out to be westlife. That was a few grains of sand that raped my ears.

Ronan's slightly less egregious than the the rest of that crew, I suppose. It has to be said, English speaking foreigners love the Irish accent, which works out "grand" for us.:)

Ah yes, I remember when living in Cardiff hearing one The Corrs classic choons bellowing from my Malaysian flatmates' room.

Thought it was a bit ironic that this was happening and yet The Corrs are from my hometown but I wouldn't be seen alive listening to them!

I never understood this. I remember talkin to a couple of English girls about this and they thought the Irish accent was very sexy. Ive heard meself on tape recordings - Im convinced I sound like somethin out of D'unbelievables.

On St Patrick's day we are like sand - everywhere, parades in some cities around the world where one wouldn't expect anything.

Was in a shopping mall here in Vancouver yesterday, and heard a Lisa Hannigan song being played in the food court.
