What are the best Irish things ?

AskMyChocolate

Admittedly, this just sprang to my mind, so I probably haven't given it the thought or time that a question like this deserves; but off the top of my head I'm going to go with, and in no particular order:

1) Sing-Songs

2) Red Lemonade

3) Butter

So, Ahers, what are your faves?

Guinness. Dirty fish & chips. Breakfast rolls. High standard of living.

'Irish' music. Can't beat it.

And a complete inability to drink in moderation.

Céilís in secondary school were always great fun. Sneaking in a naggin, jumping round like a prat and fingering some one girl in the bike shed afterwards. Good times...

Tanora, but now they've changed it :mad:

Red lemonade is mank.

Sausages? Hell yes! We do them really, REALLY well, I didn't realise how well until I lived in Britain where even butcher sausages are yock.

Our drop dead gorgeous politicians.

Smithwicks.

Hiberno-English- I quite like that fact that the English spoken in Ireland is that bit different to that spoken anywhere else.

Tayto sangwiches.

The fact that the elderly in Ireland are the real deal- nostril hair, trouser braces, those wheely things aul wans carry their shopping about in. Not trendy, hip, Nike wearing, American style OAPs. Our old folk are the real deal!

The Irish sense of humour.

King cheese and onion.

God no, English sausages are better. Cumberland sausages....drool....

Our ability to build more vomit coloured bungalows, despite knowing what the first one looked like.

No way, nothing like butcher sausages or superquinn ones.
The english haven't got a clue how to do a good fry up!. I find the food in England to generally be of a poorer standard than here.

Things about Ireland I love:

Sense of humour - unique to us and not always gotten by others
Our pubs
GAA
Our use of the English language

Tayto crisps, club orange and a 'hang sangwich' in tinfoil

The ability to fill silences with often very funny nonsense.

Beating the English at cricket, a very Irish thing.

"Marge, have I put my can down?"

"Yes, Homer"

"Good. Then turn down that Paddy Reilly album and hand me my broad black brimmer"

"You swapped your broad black brimmer for a sandwich years ago"

"Fine so"

No. No. A million times no. The gristle and rusk farce that the Irish try to pass off as sausages are a culinary travesty. Rashers, by all means, but those 'sausages' are just vile.

Irish milk, beef, lamb and humour are our real national treasures.
