| ahhhh, it's theireland who took me lucky charms, lol |
what the hell are lucky charms??/ i thought they were some sort of typical sugar coated american breakfast ceral you guys eat to try and increase the obesity of your overweight fat assed nation!
Bundang actually knows things about Ireland so I don't mind chatting to him, mostly because it's a bit of fun, but you are just an idiot who received his education on the world by watching the simpsons and reading the back of sugar packets.
I bet when you make fun of australians yoou throw in a comments about the toilet water goin down in the opposite direction too.....idiot!! |
and sheep shaggin of course... |
okay if the sheep shagging comment was meant for ireland then, when you make comments of a stereotypical nature you would be doing well to pay attention to the country the simpsons are making fun out of when you want to do it................the sheep shaggin culture is associated with wales and to a lesser extent, scotland!! we don't get the whole sheep shaggin thing, mostly cos we don't have a great deal of sheep!!
(i'm sure even bundang would back me up on that)
if the sheep shaggin comment was aimed at the australians then you're an even bigger fool, it's new zealand that is famous for sheep / lamb not australia....too much desert there for sheep to settle in!!
Perhaps now that you are in such a developed country like korea, they could teach you a little about geography, since you obviously didn't get any education in it when you were back in the good old u s of a
once again, you have proved just how much of an idiot you are!! |
sometimes I even say the Lithuanians are sheep shaggers... lol- what's the sheep population like there? They didn't teach us that in uni and I've never investigated... thanks |
I don't know what the sheep population is, i'm a one sheep man so i don't need to look at others 
I doubt they taught you too much, prob why you're gonna spend the rest of your life workin your balls off so your wife's family can sponge of you |
My wife is the youngest in her family. I don't think we've ever given her family money... except 20K won for kim chi to her mom every now and then....
I don't know what's wrong with working. Sounds like you have a spoon in your mouth. Daddy's rich? |

Yeah, and i have never seen a lucky charm, leprechaun, eaten corned beef, chased a pot of gold to the end of the rainbow, but it's hard to convince some people otherwise!!

Look, your Lucky Charms are your business. Just stay away from me Lucky Charms.
As to giving the wife money:
Do you have a wife?
I'm guessing you don't. I assure you that I have access to my money, my credit and her money and her credit. Don't worry so much paddy. Drink a few bottles of whiskey with your ma and relax. Enjoy your Sunday. You need to conserve your energy for potato picking on Monday. |

Don't have a wife, as i said before, i have a g.f of 4 and 1/2 years, she is also Irish, (it's nice when people who speak english fluently and understand you decide to form a relationship with you.....but you wouldn't know)
I am also one of those irish people you would have never heard about, I don't drink alcohol and i never have.....when you look this good you don't ruin it 
oh yeah it does remind me, we are running low on potatoes and the thatch is starting to fall of the roof, so i better sort that out too.

I have never heard about the Irish sheepshagging stereotype! Now the Welsh?  Some of them ewes look goddamn sexy you have to admit! 
Anyway - I have nothing against my Celtic bretheren over the St Georges channel - my moan were about the septic plastics going overboard about the day - drinking green guinness and playing their house of pain CDs - cheers!  |

| Higher wages - higher cost of living - over a euro for a loaf of bread - you can keep it! |
somethings maybe more expensive, but when you consider graduates in the north of ireland are getting paid about 12-16k a year and we get paid at least 26k i would prefer to spend and extra 20cent on bread.....(however, i live on the border so i shop in the north, hard to beat 15% vat and that cheap bread you talk about)[/quote]
All adds up thought doesn't it! - I have always thought Ireland was insanely expensive!

| I supported united through the 80's, i don't know if you recall those days, but there wasn't much glory to hunt. If i wantedc to be very irish i wouldn't watch football, i would only support my county in gaelic (which i do support too) but i'm not....i support an english football team cos it's a better level of football, same way i watch the americans play american football, not the irish teams....I'm not totally patriotic that I can see places that are better than Ireland....i'm just proud to be irish and don't like idiots like "john wheres my lucky charms esl white" |
United were always a decent side with big Irish support - there were big European nights and trips to wembley throughout the 1980s - no, it isn't like today I agree but when people say 'I used to support United when they were crap' United have never been really crap - not even the side that got relegated in 1974 was crap - they bounced back up to Div 1 whilst losing one game and came third in the first division that year.

| Cascarino's mum was adopted, she legally has irish status, and it got passed to him......we didn't have enough talented players from ireland during that time to make a good team...most people played gaelic football or hurling. |
True - but the 1990 (especially) world cup probably the sporting event that took over Irish society for 2 weeks.
| Quote: |
Let me know next time you are there and I'll tell you of some top nightsports where you can get laid - for free!  |
Free is my favourite word ....... but i'm very whipped by my g.f of 4 1/2 years, so whipped in fact that she doesn't even let me sleep wth other women...... i know, it's desperate!!
nced Gaelic but conversational level? I don't think so![/quote]

| most people should be able to speak it....not fluently, but at a good enough level, the only reason the can't is because they are not the smartest of people. of course we would have a lot more irish speakers if we weren't invaded, opressed for hundreds of years, and killed for speaking irish, playing irish sports, or gathering in large groups (not that i'm bitter) |
Ah, don't be bitter my friend - at least you can make a good living here in Korea teaching and promoting the evil oppressors language! |

My dad's a united fan, my older brother is a united fan, so it was natural for me to become one too, most of my cousins are liverpool and leeds fans, and even though one of the lads from home plays for leeds, i would never support them but i would like to see them promoted so he can get back into the ireland squad again
it's not only 1990 that people went mad for a sport, you should see things in Ireland at the minute, lots of people who wouldn't give me the time of day when i started playing rugby at 12 years old because i was catholic and working class... and "rugby is only an old english game", well they are all celebrating the grandslam now, as if they have been following the team all their lives.
yeah, if it wasn't for the english i would be speaking a language on the same scale as korean, great to have, but useless once you leave your own country!! |

It could be because we don't spend as much of our time with our head up our fundament as you do. There is something like 40 million Americans with Irish ancestry. The rest of the country has absorbed a bit of the culture. Is that so hard to grasp? Many of us also eat Mexican food but have never been to Mexico, much less have any ties with the place. We decorate Christmas trees like Germans. We eat chow mein like no Chinaman ever did. We consume more pizzas than the Italians. We celebrate Mardi Gras without being Catholic. We love gumbo without being Cajuns. We listen to rhythm and blues without being black. We even speak English without ever having been to Angleland. |
Wrong Ta-ta boy - By your concensus then you are the rest of your septic bretheren will be celebrating 'Cinco de Mayo' based on the fact there are more Mexican-Americans than Irish Americans but we all know that won't be happening.
I come from the most Irish place outside of Ireland and know many Irish people and first/second generation Irish people and they don't make the song and dance about St Patricks day as much as your average American! It really is embarrasing! In fact - why don't you ask the next Irishman you meet about the concept of the 'plastic paddy' - I think it may upset you!
http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/massie200603170817.asp
You and the likes of have this idealised view of Ireland and what the day represents which led in turn to 6 bombs going off in my vicinity during the late 1980s and early 1990s - bombs funded by stupid, misguided American idiots like you. So please - do us all a favour - drink your green guinness, pretend to be Irish for the day but remember - most Irish people think you are a joke - and by 'Irish' I don't mean someone from Boston! |
Jesus, who cares?
St. Patrick's is just a drinking holiday where you wear green. The Irish owners of the Irish bars prolly do think Americans claiming they're Irish are a joke, but they're happy to take their money.
And Cinco de Mayo is celebrated here in the United States among twenty-somethings, you ignoramus. Ireland's not special, and neither is your opinion. |

| Can't we all just get along? I spent St. Pat's with two yanks, a Canadian, and 3 Saffies. No English unfortunately. Out of the seven of us, I was born in Norn Iron, and the yanks, the canuck (is that right?) and two of the saffies have Irish family. Bloody good shouting match an' all. Fuckin' hate football though. |

St. Patrick's day is just a drinking holiday where people wear green???? How dare you, He is the patron saint of our fine country...we worship him like buddhists worship buddha, koreans worship park ji sung, Chinese worship yao ming and gingers worship chuck norris.
I feel disgusted that you think irish people only drink and wear green on st. patrick's day. We look forward to the 17th of march all year. It's our favourite day of the year, we get a day with no work and we don't just celebrate this fine day by getting drunk as hell and wearing green, some peopl even celebrate with parades, festivities, or if you're a student in belfast and live near the holylands, getting into riots with the police and wrecking the place in the afternoon. |

Come on...half of you get a day without work seven days a week (-:
Where's Ireland anyway? In the southern part of the England, right? Ahh, wait, I'll ask me brother in law who works at a Microsoft call "centre" in the Ireland.
He's a fine gentleman from India who got the job because the rest of the world could understand his phone English-e better than the English-e of those poor Irish neighborhood boys who couldn't get the job.
They'll get the last laugh, those neighborhood boys will. By God, they'll blow 'em up and shag his sacred cow, they will.
