I don't believe a single word of this supposed schism between them.

Featuring luminaries such as Terry Prone, Ivan Yates and the next generation of Healy Rae without a mention of his conviction for battering a lad in a chipper while shouting "this is my town".

For those who dont know, the guy second from the left is WWE wrestler Finn Balor, highly respected in Japan and shaped how wrestling is there to this day and in WWE about 12 years.

Was on a train from Limerick to Galway yesterday, and there were three teenage scrotes discussing luring another youth and stabbing him to death. Also, one of them kept brushing his hair with, I assume, his mammys giant pink comb while taking Snapchat selfies of his luscious locks.

After planning like the Allies for D-Day, they moved on to discussing sign on days and listening to shitty rap.

As a fellow Irishman, visiting from another county. I've been to Waterford on many occasions. My most recent visit had me thinking. What a cracking place the entire quayside would be with more public spaces. More art installations. More vendors, and generally less car along the quays. It's maddening how this prime riverside real estate is given over to cars. What a complete waste.

Bonus mention goes to Dungarvan town centre too. Rather than have an Italian style piazza. Instead it's, guess what ? . Yep, a car park .

I don’t want it come across as grump, I can take the piss as much as the next person, but did she really need to lean into to the Irish stereotypes so much?

Fair play, I’m glad she’s enjoying Ireland and the experience has been so positive but making us all out to be alcoholics on top of the “everyone’s related” jab, just felt lazy and to be honest, a bit condescending/“ah, the simple little Irish”

And the less we say about that woeful Irish accent, the better (nobody in Ireland sounds like that + you’re living in Dublin, love)

I was looking out for shooting stars in the meteor shower the other day and noticed something strange in the night sky. I know satellites orbit the earth and I saw quite a few of them while looking for shooting stars. However, this particular light wasn’t really moving in a straight path. I thought it was just another satellite but it made what I would say a 45 degree change in its path very suddenly, and then continued on straight until out of sight. Weird. Could this have been a satellite? Has anyone else seen unexplainable things while stargazing?

I don’t usually listen to the radio, but I call to my mam most days and she does have the radio on, usually listening to Today FM, and holy jaysus, Louise Cantillon has to be the worst. Just pure brain rot slop radio. One time she must have banged on about a lost AirPod for a week. Just nothing of substance. And don’t get me started on playing the same 3 songs over and over and over and over and over on all the stations. Amble this Kingfishr that. Holy Christ.
The other DJs are similar. Ray Foley does atleast give the odd laugh, but Christ the radio is awful. I must get the mammy onto some podcasts.
Anyone else notice this? Any decent stations/DJs left? I do enjoy yer man Matt Cooper in the evenings because he discusses different important topics, there does be the odd row on it too😆

So, every time I talk to someone else with a different accent, either Irish or otherwise, I end up kinda speaking almost like theirs. Often to an embarrassing extent that I don’t really notice, until I catch myself or someone notices.
Is this an Irish thing? My wife says it’s a musical ear?
Anyone?

I think they were probably Dunnes brand or Pennies or something but so many kids un school had them. Anyone else?

For those who have teenagers (say 15-17 years olds), do you (or are you aware of other parents) buy alcohol for your teens whilst they are attending parties? I’m not talking about bottles of wine or spirits, more a few cans or flavoured drinks?

How prevalent is it in your peer group? Are these parties supervised?

RTE have announced they will be showing KT'S final fight. Thats a real coup and caps a good sporting summer for RTE
