I lived with 3 lads from China back in college. They are great people. The CCP are fucked in the head.

The sad thing is how much no one in England ever thinks about Ireland at all.


Kuhl_Cow

Only because you guys aren't western european. But yes.


viscardvs

It’s okay, we’ve got Central Europe covered


Kuhl_Cow

\*Eastern Its actually quite simple: Everything south of Hamburg is Southern europe, everything east of Hamburg is Eastern europe, everything outside of Hamburg is a place not worth living in.

What are they? Western British?


sublime_mime

Thats just people from Dublin they are mostly West Brits.


GetAnotherExpert

People from Ireland are basically Brits in denial. They shop at Tesco's and M&S, support Man United or Chelsea, drive on the right side of the road (ie. The left one) and refuse to speak their gddamned language in favour of broken English. Add the corruption and it's basicallty Malta in the rain.


ched_murlyman

Fuck tesco and M&S, Lidl and Aldi are the dream with dunnes stores for the fancy stuff.


Chimpville

The Irish are absolutely wonderful people, and I dearly love nearly every one of them I've met - even most of the ones I find myself related to. Some of the ones on here however, are fucking miserable, diabolical, whining, ignorant cunts with absolutely no self-awareness.


Toilet_Bomber

Oh, my beautiful British balcony-bouncing buddy, just go over to r/Ireland. 90% Yanks, 100% misery guaranteed, or your money back.


mr_dewitt72

Yea, I'm a refugee from r/ireland, awful shower of wankers; I'd sooner shave my balls with broken glass than stick 5 minutes of their cuntishness.


The_Pig_Man_

It is fun to go over there though and farm downvotes by suggesting that perhaps people who go to work in their pajamas and are paid fairly well for it are not history's greatest victims.


RickarySanchez

This made me audibly chuckle. I recently made a comment that Ryanair have done some good things for making flights cheaper and was literally burned at the stake


cacra

Communists always gonna hate. How dare a company be successful and pay for our benefits?


soundengineerguy

Oh yeah, they love the cheap flights over there, but don't you dare suggest Ryanair have had a positive impact on travel or know a thing or two about airports.


COdoubleG

Same hahaha


Mkbw50

Tim Martin (Wetherspoon) and Michael O'Leary (Ryanair) have probably done more for the working class in this country than anyone else and our "civil society" wants to tax them into oblivion


GuyLookingForPorn

I fully agree with the first half, but no it is in fact completely justified that the extremely rich pay fair taxes.


Mkbw50

Yeah I don't mind taxing them. I mean bs restrictions on their companies to promote "competition" just because Spoons and Ryanair are objectively better (i.e. cheaper)


Annatastic6417

>work Work? Queuing outside the dole office is not work.


The_Pig_Man_

Nah. Loads of them have decent jobs with well above average pay. They just *sound* as if they're on the dole.

We’re perfectly capable of ruining our country all by ourselves thank you very much.


your_right_ball

I’m actually starting to avoid that sub, a significant portion of it is both toxic and low quality. I’m half a Barry, so started hanging around r/CasualUK.


Worried-Cicada9836

Count_de_Mits

It seems to me every national sub is full out out of touch miserable, misanthropic losers


saxonturner

Fooking plastic paddys!


abdul_tank_wahid

I don’t know why that one American post there makes me feel something bad inside, especially the “Oh what did you do to the Guinness!”, nah brev, I don’t want this brev.


HeccMeOk

zero regrets not joining that


Action_Limp

It's an awful place. But I find it's an inverse of the reality of Ireland. They are the social outcasts that nobody likes because they are dryshites.


WhatILack

I've never met an Irishman in real life I've not liked, but as you say it seems like half of them online are complete freaks. Although it is hard to know which of them are Irish and which of them are larping Americans.


Chimpville

I'm assuming you mean 'half' very loosely, but yes there are a small minority who are genuinely completely hateful - and yeah, I'd wager some aren't really Irish.


WhatILack

If you ever spend some time having a peek in the ireland sub which I do for a laugh it isn't a minority there, although that place is clearly overwhelmed with Americans. Compared to Irelands population it is huge when compared to other national subs.


ByGollie

> ~~some~~ most check the times on their post history and you'll invariably find they keep American hours


Chimpville

Fuck me.. now I'm wondering what random part of the world my shitty sleep habits and reddit shitposting addiction geolocate me to!

GetAnotherExpert

You're spelling Falklands wrong, Padraig. Now go back to the bog.


Action_Limp

And every signle Irish person had at least one primary school teach who were completely hateful.


Chimpville

I've not heard of this, would you mind saying more?


Action_Limp

I'm sure that it's the same in the UK, but we have a subset of hateful, begruding people who dislike everything and everyone, and choose to become primary school teachers to impart it on young kids.


Chimpville

Oh fuck yeah - I call them 'fall into careers'. Jobs that many people aspire to do from a young age, but at the same time the sheer number of those required, and the lack of proper compensation means that some people just 'fall into' it after not achieving what they really wanted to do. Biggest examples are usually teaching, nursing, armed forces etc. I've had 2 such careers, and you're right - 'the misery loves company' is strong with many of those who don't want to be there.


robot_swagger

Like 3/4 of my extended family is Irish and I never have as much fun as going over for the reunions. Some of the funniest fuckers I have ever met.

Lets not talk about that possibility, shall we?


MagosRyza

That’s every country or cities major subreddit too however


gourmetguy2000

I dunno, the Irish on here often have our backs, especially defending our food and weirdness (probably because they're largely the same as)


gary_mcpirate

The Irish have soda bread , a world class food that you can only get in Ireland. Apart from that their food is pretty much like ours


gourmetguy2000

Tbf we have crumpets so together we're unstoppable


gary_mcpirate

Maybe we should combine our powers and take over the world….again


1tiredman

Yeah "Irish" redditors are fucking awful. Especially R/Ireland. I like the English and even have English friends and most English people love Irish people. My English friends constantly make famine jokes or call me an Irish pig or something but it's jokes and I find it hilarious

DiscardedKebab

10000% agree. Although by "on here" I hope you just mean Reddit in general, the ones in this particular sub are sound I feel the same about the Scottish. Great in real life, normal people. Always get on. Get them online and they are some of the most obsessed, weirdest, bitter and twisted people I've ever seen


mccabe-99

Luv ya too bazza 😘


Kocrachon

But the OP gets it wrong, they are from Belfast, so its the British saying this! You can't consider them ours when they are misbehaving. This is like when my wife comes in and says "YOUR son did something bad today".


Chimpville

A Catholic priest in Belfast reading a prayer submission from his catholic congregation… if they don’t _both_ have green passports, I’m Father Jack Hackett!


Kocrachon

Listen, we had this kid together, they are both of ours even if they do look and sound more like me... But they are your responsibility too.


AndreasDasos

This priest was very clearly joking, and even explicitly said it was a funny one and ‘we are tired of hearing about 1966’. It’s weird this is even a story - I can only assume half the readers have never entered a church and assume it’s a bunch of austere robots intoning at all times. 


Chimpville

I'm responding to OP's titlular question, not this funny clip.


DiscardedKebab

I'm trying really hard to avoid making jokes involving Catholic priests and the word "butthurt" here


Ok-Winner-6589

There is an expresion in Galicia which says "carallo dereito non cre en Dios" (horny dick doesn't believe on God) which fits perfectly here


ChocomelP

Did someone say caralho?


BrilliantProfile662

Galicians are undercover portuguese


mr_dewitt72

Please do Baz, love a religious joke, I'll get started: How do they separate the men from the boys in the catholic church? With a fucking crowbar.


Action_Limp

The priest in one parish fell ill, and a newly graduated priest had to fill in for Confession. Anyway, his first confessor is a man who says: "*Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned."* The newly graduated priest is already nervous, since he's clearly younger than the man confessing, but falls back on his training and says: "Tell me your sins so that you be forgiven." The man responds - *"I have engaged in sexual actions with my girlfriend outside of marriage."* "*Phew,*" thinks the newly graduated priest, sex outside of marriage is typical, and the penance is straightforward: *"Please recite 15 'Hail Maries' and donate €20 to the donation box for forgiveness."* There's an awkward pause, and the sinner responds, *"It's a bit steep, no?"* The priest, unfazed, responds, *"Sex outside of marriage is a serious sin."* The sinner, who obviously is a little distressed at the cost of forgiveness, responds, *"Ah*, *but it wasn't full sex, it was just a blowjob, so it should cost the same amount."* The priest is starting to panic; they didn't teach this at the oratory in Maynooth, and he only knows of blowjobs because of movies - but this is his first confession; he has to get it right, or his reputation in this parish will be sullied, for good. What to do? Again, he thinks back to his training and remembers Father Innocent's teachings: *"When in need, all you need to do is ask".* He lets the sinner know that he needs a few moments to think on this, and silently slinks out of the confession box and goes straight to the sacristy room to see if another priest is around. When he enters, he sees an altar boy preparing for the next mass. Could he ask this child? He's not ordained, but he does have more experience in this parish. He puts his trust in God and asks the child how the usual parish priest would continue: "Tell me, *child, what would your regular parish priest give for the act of a blow job?"* The child responds with glee, *"A packet of crisps and a can of coke".*


Mellowturtlle

It's almost refreshing to see a priest butthurt though. Usually they cause the butthurt


RandomUsername600

Don’t hold back, freedom of expression and all


JakeMcStank

usually the priests leave the little boys butthurt.

It was more like 380. Prior to the protestant-catholic split bullshit the Irish were to the English what the Scottish were to the French. And even them it took a Scot ascending to the Throne of England to fuck everything up. Damn Scots, they ruined the British Isles! not just Scotland!


manic47

mr-english

Ireland loves us so much they even named their favourite tea after us 😍🥰 https://www.barrystea.ie/


Quietschedalek

Only when you point out that they're basically british but with a funny accent...


norrin83

They are in a tight competition with the English when you say they're basically yanks but with a funny accent ^(Or with Austrians being basically German with a funny accent, but no one would say such a ghastly and vile thing)


A_spooky_eel

Austrians are basically Bavarians with a funny accent.


norrin83

That is much less vile


TheSadCheetah

That's not an insult If you came across a Bayer and Österreicher it would be surprising not to see them sucking each other off.


BillyRougeBird

Calling us Yanks with a funny accent hurts worse because it's basically true at this point. A decade and a half of social media and American streaming services has peeled away whatever unique culture we once had layer by layer. And we don't need to be reminded of that fact. 


Thatchers-Gold

It must sting to have so little going on that being butthurt is all you have, **and** to be even worse than England at football.


Zotzink

That's big talk from a country that haven't won the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship since 1901. London won it in 1901. Yes, Ireland failed to win a competition explicitly called the All-Ireland.

SirJ4ck

Shortly after our victory in 2021, I met a bunch of Irish people of both genders, obviously at a local pub. When they learned I was Italian they were ecstatic. I think I could have asked for a bj to each and every one of them and they would have happily complied.

I'll still give you a BJ for Chiellini saying "football coming Rome" into the camera.

So you agree, Belfast and the rest of Norn Iron are actually Irish, fair play Billy, now if you just take down those flegs and run up a few Tricolours.


manic47

I'd struggle to find anyone I know who really cares about NI and reunification at all. If they want to unify with Ireland, it's the choice of them and the Irish government. Want to remain in the UK, again it's their choice.

Urgh. I mean I want to say no - but shit like this is fucking stupid and makes it hard to argue the case that we're not. I'd like to think there aren't many of my generation who are this daft about - but then I got chased off the estate I grew up on in Dublin while visiting after I'd moved to Wales as a teenager because apparently I was now "An English prozzie prick ". (Though to this day all these years later I do like to imagine what would've happened to "the lads" if they'd turned up in Barry in the mid 90s and told everyone there that they were English pricks, would've been a good "eats popcorn" moment).

We are more upset over the fact that we never got a chance to invade and colonise anyone


KatsumotoKurier

I would consider the Dál Riata effort a success. For several centuries, Gaelic became the predominant language of Scotland. And the presence is still there today. Some of your angrier kin also invaded Canada via the US (but failed). Like 25% of Canada was Irish at that time too, so I guess you did kinda colonize fairly well via Britain, given that Irish heritage is one of the biggest ethnic diaspora groups not only in Canada but also the US and Australia. Liverpool too.
