    SIGGY FREUD; don't think we'd be staying on the beer for long if you catch my drift.

    I'd say Freud was an obnoxious bore and cocaine would only have made him even worse.


    I'd probably take Jesus for a beer and ask him: dafuq?

    Bet you nowadays he'd be turning water to craft beers and aged whiskey

    Has to be Jesus Christ..even to ask him straight out did he really come back from the dead? If so, it kind of turns the whole question of an afterlife on its head and would give immense peace and comfort to the world. Without that, we just have to take the word of the bible..

    He also stated that Irish were too congenitally retarded to benefit from psychoanalysis. ie nothing going on upstairs to analyse

    An urban myth , its attributed to the score from the film " the departed " , so in effect Martin Scorsese is responsible.

    My old man, we often used to go for two pints and a serious chat and then the very odd time ended up having an unplanned session with his friends in his local.

    Jesus they were some characters and they thought the world of him.

    I'm pretty sure he said we were so practiced at repression that we were impervious to free association (that was the basis of his therapeutic technique at the time). Not sure he implied they were thick.

    Julius Caesar.

    A soldier, celebrity, general, statesman, dictator, poet, historian. He literally created the Roman Empire.

    Besides the language barrier, I can't think of a better person.

    Hitler didn't smoke, hardly ever drank and didn't eat meat. Must have got his kicks in other ways.

    He did smoke quite heavily in his younger years, found them a nightmare to give up and became an ardent born again anti smoker later on. Kicked off the first anti tobacco legislation in the world. He was big into being a vegetarian alright, apparently because - and as it turned out a horrific irony and blasphemy against mankind - he couldn't abide the suffering of animals... Brought in the first anti animal experimentation legislation too. Human experimentation on the other hand... :mad:

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
