Are you just a careless typists, or another Irish lush?

Did you ever see the episode of Futurama where the caption reads 'Ireland 6,000 B.C'? There are flying cars and futuristic Utopian cites. Then they show a couple of Irishmen. One says, "I just invented the greatest thing! I call it whiskey!"

Sorry. I don't know, and we can't get youtube in China without a VPN (which I don't have). It was just a momentary gag in an old Futurama episode. Good luck finding it.

I had to fight to keep from drinking too much alcohol while working in Korea! My coworkers kept insisting day after day after day. When did things change?

Now see, if you are Irish, it'd be easy to drink too much - you wouldn't find it so challenging as you do. The Koreans have got it all backwards. They shouldn't be hiring anyone BUT the Irish.

Yeah, I woudl say that that's rich of the Koreans because many of them are "big drunkers". I visited Korea and wnet to Shinchon and at night the place had so many drunkers just vomiting and even fighting in the streets. Unbelievable. Shocked

Cool

Despite what I said earlier, which was all in good fun. Very Happy I find the Koreans pathetic and laughable in terms of hard drinking. Once I passed a market where some Korean yob was coming out with a tallboy can of Cass beer. He was fiddling around with it, obviously anticipating getting back to his post at the junkyard where he was working temporarily while the guard dog delivered her pups, so he could guzzle that tall boy and get his freak on! JC on a popsicle stick! One can of Cass!? What is that stuff? point oh five percent alcohol? I used Cass as aftershave once and it didn't even sting me! Very Happy I would need to drink eight of those before my brain knew it wasn't a school night. Then after that I'd start to get drunk, if I switched to a real sort of beer.Gawd almighty! The Irish may drink too much, but at least they know how to drink.

It was O'Brien who insisted that four fingers were five, wasn't it? Or was it five were four? And fingers of what? : )
