    The "FF are c*nts and f*cked up the country" threads... I am not a FF man, and they did play a part in the current state of things, but there is a WORLDWIDE RECESSION! FF didn't mess up every country in the world! And same again with the "Catholic Church raped everyone in the country" - Yes, another terrible thing that happened, but come on, can't blame all the world's problems on them

    Sorry, could you repeat that?
    “Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.”
    Robert Frost (1874-1963)

    Education whether formal or gained through experience is no replacement of instinct that if you smell smoke it most likely a fire. A tree that has been rooted in one place cannot be moved without an outside force being involved, that force sometimes comes in the form of an ill-wind. An ill-wind has sometimes been responsible for clearing a room. If you are confident that you are not the source of that ill-wind then you are entitled to enjoy that self confidence but that confidence can be taken away by the pointing of a finger. The front of the queue will be the place to be when the doors are closed and the those whose spots are changed according to their surroundings will be left in the bleakness that is a room absent the forces that are craved to make the change.

    I don't hate them but I'm a little baffled by them - the ones posted to Feedback or Help Desk or Newbies/FAQs about something really specific/specialised and which Feedback/Help Desk/Newbies/FAQs don't indicate so much as a hint that they'd have anything to do with them, e.g. "Where can I find a good coffee shop in Dundalk?" :confused:

    Yes, that happens of course - sure. Btw, I got banned recently for a spat with someone whose views are very right-wing, so what's your point?

    Like the OP said, threads that go along the lines of "can someone give me a link for google?"/"can someone tell me how to get to the city centre?" that you literally just have to type into your search bar to get an answer for.

    Threads in AH that shouldn't be in AH, that the poster openly admits "but I thought I'd get more replies here" and doesn't see how there's a problem with that.

    Threads where a load of guys go on about how all women, all Irish women or all young Irish women are the devil and like some sort of paper-mache exist only as a shell of makeup and fake tan, the original body having long withered away inside.

    Pretty much anything on a serious issue (particularly to do with gender, single mothers, fordinners, social welfare), because it seems to be becoming increasingly hard to actually find any rational, intelligent debate.

    Any sensible posts, particularly if they deal in facts and common sense, will invariably be drowned out by a load of posters trying to outdo each other in terms of their ability to dismiss the reality of situations and to get more outraged and insulting.

    Like claiming that Irelands foreign born population rising from 1-17% in a decade, was relatively small change, even though no other western nation has experienced such an increase in such a short time period, post ww2?

    :P

    Another thing: people misrepresenting other people's posts.

    I'm sure you remember how I agreed with you that it was a large, fast increase (I think now: I haven't really been thinking about that old thread too much), but had no reason to think it would continue to rise. (now let's not discuss this issue further, or else resurrect the thread if you wish to do so)

    Yeah, people simplifying your argument to make it easier to argue against, even completely altering what you said: very annoying.

    Surely you never saw the posts by the same guy who went on these hilariously long riddiculous rants about scumbags and how he hated them so much. Every thread he started had the word scumbags in the title... It was about 3 or 4 years ago so I can't remember any other specific details..

    Was it The Citizen? There's been so many anti-scumbag rants I can't keep track of them all.
