Annoying festive people.

Clowns wearing Christmas Jumpers with lights, this seems to be the new thing this year for the 12 pubs. Big college gobsh1tes out spending their parents money or the State's if they're on the grant.

I was in Dublin yesterday and witnessed these cretins taking over such established Ale houses as McDaids of Harry st and Mulligans of Poolbeg street. Big loud festive mouths arriving in annoying everyone and getting sick in the smoking area and toilets.

Same everywhere I'm afraid, smug little contradicting "know it all's"

I know the type, I often cringe when having the misfortune of encountering any on nights out.

I often wonder why I go out in the first place, having to listen to some overly dressed young lad drinking Bavaria telling me how the world works. Only for him to puke all over the shop an hour after he arrives.

F**k Off!

People in pubs? Enjoying themselves???? I won't hear of it!

Those who I encountered yesterday were a solid disgrace, terrible behaviour all round. I was young once yes, still young, but I'd never act the bollocks like they did. Loud mouthing from the the super drunk alpha males, putting down a pint of Guinness to go outside and through it up. The women necking vodkas and telling the barman to go fcuk himself when he said no more, no class whatsoever. This is our bright up and coming future

The funniest thing was the lads outside McDaids trying to smoke a cigarette between intervals of vomit.

Well the Christmas jumper has only become "the thing to do at Christmas" of late up until what? Around the time Tubridy got the gig doing the Late Late, now everybody does the jumper thing on nights out. It's always the same feckin jumpers too, those feckin ho, ho, ho ones in Penney's that everybody gets. Everybody looks the same.

I just commented to mention the typical college students that annoy me that wear them, not so much the jumper itself.

If anything that annoys me about the jumpers, its that everybody has the same feckin one!

Are you sure???? I think everyone I know and more have done at least one night of debauched drunkenness that they probably can't remember.

Maybe, just maybe, you were the odd one out?

pappyodaniel · 15-12-2013 06:40AM

I have a Xmas jumper that I've had for years now but I think I'll be lobbing it into a charity clothes bag. Being a proud hipster I wouldn't be seen dead in one anymore.

As for the 12 pubs, I have to admit I enjoy them apart from last years one when I got lost in an industrial estate in Sligo and not knowing how I ended up there.

sabat · 15-12-2013 06:42AM

If they didn't wear those jumpers how would anyone know what "legends" they are and what an "epic" night out they're having?

Well the ones I tend to see don't have lights, just the same ones you see the minute you walk in the door in penney's. I was out for a few pints tonight even, and seen 7 or 8 people wearing the same jumper. Can any of them buy a different one??

I'm a professional cynic, but my hearts not in it...

lkionm · 15-12-2013 06:57AM

Spot the angry Saturday night shift workers.

Some knackers tried to break into my shop tonight. I can't open the door.

Lets all be angry and tired together

DEFTLEFTHAND · 15-12-2013 07:04AM

I was watching the rugby when of these animals blocked my view, When I touched the specimen in the process gesturing him out of the way he turned and stared. He said Wha? All right kid?

He'd an smirk on his face typical of a first year culchie (I'm culchie too) from Thurles up doing Arts in UCD. Drunken muppet getting fresh with a stranger. Being a complete Gentleman I didn't react of course.

I'm not the Dad like character coming in and ruining good times. These people were drunk as skunks and were behaving badly. Can't handle the stuff.

Bogart used to say that the test of a real man is to be off your head without your drinking partners or fellow patrons noticing.

You encountered a few gobshytes OP. It happens, Christmas or no Christmas.

There was a group last night in the pub I was in in Sligo, most of them were like anyone else just having a good night, but one of their group was horribly obnoxious, loud, bitching about people by name at the top of her voice, hitting people who weren't listening to her and shouting "listen to me" at everyone who dared to speak to someone else. She wasn't wearing a Christmas jumper!

So yeh, there will be gobshytes, but most people are only out for good craic and do no harm whatsoever - it's nothing to do with crappy Christmas jumpers. There's just and increase of people in the pubs this time of year and so naturally the number of idiots will also increase.

That sounds more like an alcoholic tbh.

There's been drunken shenanigans in Ireland every time of the year for as long as I can remember. Why does Christmas time make it worse?

MJ23 · 15-12-2013 12:20PM

OP, get in the bed and dont get up until the middle of January. Bah Humbug, you grumpy fart.
All talk and no action too, should have given that turnip muncher a Stone Cold Stunner.

LETHAL LADY · 15-12-2013 12:44PM

I always carry a ricin cigarette for such occasions.

bootybouncer · 15-12-2013 12:50PM

Like Facebook those jumpers are generally for ***** ..........................I had to wait for the wife outside a late night bar in dublin last night, like attenborough said we are a plague on this planet.............................

Meangadh · 15-12-2013 12:50PM

I was out last night and there were loads of people wearing Christmas jumpers, Santy hats, different festive things- all seemed to be having a great time and no one falling all over the place or getting sick. It's not like people put on the jumpers and all of a sudden they're pricks. The people you saw were obviously out to get hammered, jumper or no jumper.

Nice generalisation there.

I'm doing a 12 pubs when I finish my exams. I've never done it before and tbh I find the idea of wearing Christmas jumpers is a bit cringey, but it's all a bit of fun.
But god forbid someone gets too drunk. I don't think I've ever seen that ever in the history of ever- Oh, except for college students pissing away your money or their parents money, just them. Sure it's not like any college student has any form of their own income. It's a known fact that they don't work. Except for the several people I know in college who have jobs, but aside from them, they just piss away the state's/parent's money, just like you said

Of course we mustn't forget the scrote who is mad for a sing song, knows the first line of every song but that's about it.
