Why are the Irish great?

[Agent Larkin]

Inspired by the great Britain thread (yes haha the Irish always need to be inspired by the British Mr Smart-ass) and the amount of times i have been able to point out we are just as good mar go fearr (probably came out wrong but if you can understand it it should be easy to work out). So just ramble away at why were great. Irish people i'm going to need help.

 

[Abedeus]

Well, they drink a lot and fight.

But still, Scotland is better.

The school system.
The healthcare system.
Bertie Ahern.
The building industry.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Because we are!!!

 

[ThrobbingEgo]

The accent, mostly.

The Scottish are better because of Sean Connery, though.

 

[SimuLord]

Any place that could invent the world's greatest alcoholic beverage (Irish stout) has got to be made of win.

Plus, to quote from Medieval: Total War Viking Invasion: "'Tis said that God intended Ireland to be the second Garden of Eden, for there are no snakes on the island".

[Skeleon]

Because they could break my nose with one punch.

Partially correct. While we officially stayed neutral, we unofficially supported the allies during the second world war. It is known that when prisoners were taken by the Irish (mostly fucked up paradrops if I am not mistaken) the allies were dropped off at the northern border, while the Axis were kept as prisoners.

Really wrong thing to say to me. My Great Grandfather fought in and lost his brother in WW1 because we weren't f'en neutral we were part of Britain. We remained neutral in WW2 only because we would have been useless. But that didn't stop my grandad going north joining the brits and landing on Normandy mister allowed German ships we f'en boycotted them sent emergency food to britain and shot down a shit load of their planes.

The fight and drink in good fun.

Their music is excellent.

And their accent is one I wouldn't mind having myself.

I like to think of Ireland as Canada's 3nd cousin, twice removed.

 

[Fulax]

Guinness.

 

[rainman2203]

Wait, the Irish are great?

Just messing. I've never been to Ireland, but given their predisposition to drinking heavily and fornicating fruitfully, I can nay say ill of them. I suppose both of those are just a side effect of being Catholic, though. Ba-zing!

Plus, my favorite character from LOST is... er wait Desmond is Scottish. To be honest, I can't tell the difference. No offense to whoever would take offense to that.

Cheers Mates!

 

[The Infamous Scamola]

They get drunk and practise spousal abuse?

Ba-dum tish

 

[Bretty]

Sure they are great... but Scotland is greater!

You have a habit of turning up with these jokes don't you? What country are you from?

Also I'm not going to argue with the scottish as they are our crazy kilt wearing cousins.

And we like to think of the canadians as our dyslexic 2nd cousions who can't spell 2nd. Also randomn fact we once invaded canada.
