    Despite the shite that's piled upon us.

    Despite the doom & gloom bollox that's served up to us daily on a plate by the Tv & radio.

    Despite all that, we are a sound bunch of people.

    Just thought I'd say that because no-one else seems to be saying that these days.

    It would be a great country if you didn't have to live here

    I'd prefer to live here than anywhere else. Such nice people, friendly, funny, and positive... for the most part anyway.

    Ireland is pretty great! 'cept Leitrem. Hardly a county at all!

    No one needs a Fianna Fail government.

    Not ever,

    Not really.

    Leitrim has a scary amount of sexy women in it.

    Seriously - it gets dissed, but it has more than it's fair share of fair maidens to it.

    Live rugby in Hi Def on TV, Live MMA on UFC.tv, netbook on the lap in a positive thread about Ireland, few cans,

    This feels good.

    I believe in a united Kildare. our day our daily bread will come


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,499 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    Well I suppose we believe that we're great but I'm not sure do the rest of the world feel the same way. I experienced plenty of Anti Irish abuse worldwide in my travels, most noticeably in Sydney where I was turned down for jobs because I was Irish on 3 separate occasions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73 ✭✭s20101938


    I beg to differ. Irish people on the whole, are belligerent as5holes. A bunch of smart ar5es, "slagging" is the height of their cultural wit. They have persecution and inferiority complexes, and they never shut the fukc up about being Irish, like anyone cares.

    They are also ugly as sin.

    You're just jealous because you have no friends and everyone hates you.

    Just had a quick sconce at your posts and found some of your congealed bile...
    As you're using the term "wan" and "fella" I'll assume you're all skangers. If so, please march to the pier at Kingstown (Dun-o'-the-Leary-Shire) and walk the plank while I sip English Breakfast tea from the Sailing club and laugh. We are returning to England's fold from whence we came. Till we have built Jerusalem, in Englands green & pleasant land. Magnificent England our generous protector I swear loyalty to the Queen and Tony Blair.

    God Save our gracious Queen
    God save our glorious Queen....

    understood, skangers?
