Oysters? ... once the food for poor Irish, now seen as a delicacy and quiet exotic?

What food do you detest?

jimbobaloobob · 24-05-2019 12:11am

Eggs, smelll of them cooking is enough.

Would you go hungry rather than eat the food you detest?

Fifty grades of shay. · 24-05-2019 8:19am

I would once I knew I was getting something else, but I wouldnt make myself ill or die of hunger over it

Cooked or handy breakfast?

Trigger Happy · 24-05-2019 8:21am

I prefer a cooked. But today it will be an apple.

Are you more optimist or pessimist?

Fifty grades of shay. · 24-05-2019 8:27am

Yes, absolutely. I used to travel a lot but much less this past few years so am really looking forward to it.

What one word would you use to describe your musical taste?

Deja Boo · 24-05-2019 8:51am

Country

Yours?

24-05-2019 10:04am

Eclectic, but most would probably fall under the umbrella of punk and post-punk.

What's the stupidest thing you're prepared to admit to on an anonymous forum to doing while drunk or high?

magic_murph · 24-05-2019 10:10am

I wore socks and sandals - on purpose. I actually liked it. (Sober)
I wrote and sang an entire musical (in my kitchen) about a bird that lived on an island but didn't know how to fly (High)
Shifted a female bouncer (Drunk and again sober)

By sharing it. Sunlight being the best antiseptic.

Is shame a human weakness?

Trigger Happy · 24-05-2019 10:55am

Yes but it’s a necessary one I think.

Anything interesting happening in your life this weekend?

ziedth · 24-05-2019 11:23am

Not to normal people. A friends kid is having their communion and it's my little fellas 7th birthday so going bowling/laser tag on sunday. That's about as exciting as it gets for me.

If you ran right now at a nice pace (say 10km per hour) how far/long do you think you'd get?

RMAOK · 24-05-2019 11:35am

About 3 yards

Do you drink much milk?

magic_murph · 24-05-2019 11:37am

Can't drink too much milk - them bones them bones need calcium.

Did you ever get your hole, did you ever get your hole, did you every get your hole weeks wages?

24-05-2019 3:51pm

Yes, whilst riding a tractor I might add.

If you are not currently a vegetarian, say the only way you are going to be able to consume meat is to slaughter and butcher the animal yourself. Kill, skin, gutting it, etc. Tools and technical skills won't be an issue, all this is provided.

Can you do it?

ziedth · 24-05-2019 4:17pm

Good Question actually, Yes I could Gut/Skin/Prepare the meat with no issues (I was a butcher many years ago), Killing and bleeding out an animal I would find difficult.

Where/when was the best session/beers you ever went on?

Trigger Happy · 24-05-2019 4:58pm

It was a lost weekend in a hotel in amsterdam...

Do you have a high tolerance for alcohol?

RMAOK · 24-05-2019 5:20pm

No - very low tolerance tbh

RMAOK · 24-05-2019 5:23pm

No, I always vote but not today as I'm on holiday and out of the country.

Do you think your MEP really represents the interests of your local community? Makes a difference? Can be approached by voters in the same way as TDs and councillors to try and help out with personal family issues?

jimbobaloobob · 25-05-2019 12:57am

I would be of the opinion some could be approached, maybe not directly help you but would have the local government contacts to help if they wanted.

Have you ever approached a politician for help?

Dash_Of_Red · 25-05-2019 1:00am

No, never. I consider them useless anyway.

Is your current life the way you envisaged it as a teen?

In my head im still a teen.

No its not but then i dont think i envisaged too much.

What about yourself?

Dash_Of_Red · 25-05-2019 1:16am

I had high hopes. Didnt work out. What was the best moment of your life?

jimbobaloobob · 25-05-2019 1:22am

Hard to label one moment as the best moment of my life, Ive had some very significant moments that i would rate as good, but then im not sure were they good because i hadn't pr-empted them or are they good looking back.

When the house falls quiet and you have it all to yourself, whats your favourite thing to do?

25-05-2019 1:31am

Put the feet up, mug of scald, watch Frasier on CH4 or read a book.

Everyone in Russia pays the same flat rate of income tax, I believe it's 13% (maybe 12, can't be arsed googling at this hour) and it applies from billionaires to janitors. No high rate, no low rate, just 13% on every rouble.

From what I've been told by people who live there there's (relatively) little effort to avoid/evade this as most people know where they stand and think it's reasonable.

Not asking if you personally would be financially better off under this, asking if you think it's actually fair?

jimbobaloobob · 25-05-2019 1:36am

I think its fair to a point, i see the logic of one rate for all, problem is though 13% to one persons income is a savage donation for another its small change. So not fair as personal situations differ.

Have you ever been to Russia?

If it includes inheritance tax then yeah. Its a mental question by the way.
