    The Spanish, as lovely as they can be, are a big bunch of babies who live at home with their families until they're 35 and the reason they've such a high unemployment rate is because they're too lazy and scared of emigrating and afraid to be alone and of leaving their creature comforts so make excuses about how they could never leave their family because they're "so close". Feck off, grow some balls and use this crisis as an opportunity to expand your horizons and stop sponging off your parents.

    People who wear sunglasses indoors are always twats.

    Every single man from the country of Foreign is better looking than all the men who don't live in the country of Foreign.

    Okay going by that logic would you have a problem if i had sex consensual sex with a 13 year old boy considering everything humans do is "natural".
    Oh I'd have a big problem with that. But to say its not natural is a fallacy. Natural and moral arent the same thing.

    there is a reason why plenty of male/female couples can't produce a child either.
    I suppose you're going to tell them they're not natural either?

    That in no way invalidates the fact that everything humans do is natural as we are a part of nature.

    What if they're blind, or had some kind of disfigurement or surgery on the eye?
    They wouldn't be twats surely?

    Should really be called things that annoy me...

    Formula one is not a real sport...driving round and round for hours arouond a track is ridiculous, and these guys make millions for it!! IMO if you don't even break a sweat while participating, it ain't a sport.

    Rugby is waay better than football or GAA, really interesting to watch, good regional teams and I just hope it doesn't end up like the Premiership full of money grabbing w*nkers.

    Foreign men are much hotter than Irish guys, and less intimidated by a smart girl with an actual opinion.

    Girly movies or general romantic comedies aimed at women are utter horsesh!t, and send a terrible message to women - that its ok to waste years of your life secretly in love with your best guy friend who's a total man-whore and doesn't notice you because you're not hot enough for his standards, treats you like crap and sleeps with every thing that walks....until eventually years later when you find someone else and decide to get married he'll declare that he really loves you because you 'get' him and then you should drop your average looking but solid fiancee becuase he suddenly decided that you're interesting...this is literally the storyline for dozens of sh!tty movies.

    what else...oh yeah weed should be legalised, but regulated heavily. It is no worse for you than alcohol or cigarettes, drugs which kill millions of people every year but are ok simply because they are legal - what a load of crap!

    Just giving birth to a child is not 'a huge achievement' in and of itself - its simple biology; raising a decent human being who contributes to society and is not an axe murdering scumbag is an achievement. It annoys me when people say my greatest achievement is my child when the child is like three weeks old - you haven't done anything with it yet!!

    Abortion should be legally available in this country, and sex education in schools need to be much more comprehensive.

    Immigrants did not ruin this country, they should be able to come and work if they want, Irish people go anywhere and everywhere to live and work and don't necessarily do it legally.

    No we are not, humans individually maybe, but the culture is not. There is nothing natural about civilisation. We are even skipping evolution and preventing its natural outcome. Geologists have even coined the effect on Earth as the Anthropocene the human age. We stopped been natural a long time now.

    But we are still animals but collectiblely we are not.

    The blind are twats! ;) The whole lot of them! No no, I doth jest...

    Okay I change my opinion slightly.... anyone who wears sunglasses indoors for purely fashion reasons are twats.

    My point still stands. You've said nothing that invalidates it. Speaking of whitewashing, gay animals: mental illness or lifestyle choice?

    I think RTE is a good service and worth the licence fee.

    sharon ni bheolain does my head in, she looks good, but is a crap newsreader.

    I am sympathetic to people wanting the death penalty imposed.

    I would ban chewing gum out right

    I would half alone parents allowance. I don't think it should be an automatic given.

    oh and another one....I'm saying this as a non-smoker....smokers are more fun than non-smokers and have a more "devel-may-care" hedonist approach to partying.

    "But we are still animals but collectiblely we are not". So you agree that we are animals and animals are a part of nature.

    What makes up this collective again? Animals who as you've said are a part of nature. The human brain is a product of nature is it not. So how the fcuk could anything we do be considered unnatural.

    What was your point exactly?What do gay animals have to do with anything if you want to compare yourself to a animal be my guest but do not tar me with that brush.

    In fairness, that's hardly an unpopular opinion.

    Everyone knows that the part of a pub with the most craic is in the smoking area.:D
