Re: The end of my beer drinking days - minimum alcohol pricing
And more and more of these things will come down the line because we lie back, spread the legs, and take it while grumbling under our breath. The whole place should have been in flames years ago.

Re: Ireland's Obesity Crisis
Very easy to take the easy way and blame shops. Nobody is held down and force fed any of it. I certainly wouldn’t want to see nice things removed from shops just because someone is self loathing but has no willpower. Teach people that it’s their own responsibility and as they become less weak minde...

Re: The end of my beer drinking days - minimum alcohol pricing
Such a juvenile fixation with alcohol in Ireland. It's embarrassing that this is a top story. Use this as an excuse to cut out casual drinking. A few beers annually at a wedding or Christmas party is enough for me.

Re: Ireland's Obesity Crisis
Bland overcooked vegetables and burnt meat? I think that’s part cause and part effect. I tried to introduce an Irish friend to Tuna Steaks. They didn't trust me that it was safe to eat it since it was raw in the center. They wouldn't touch sushi either. The default for any steak or burger in Irelan...

Re: Ireland's Obesity Crisis
Walk down the main street of any Irish town and you'll find tacky betting shops, pubs, chippers and other fast food outlets. Does Dublin's O'Connell St still have two Burger Kings at each end? In case you're too lazy to walk to the extra 100m. Ditto with Grafton St last time I checked. The Irish lov...

They look different to me. Probably just weird to see them in party casual attire and of course they've aged a bit too.

Re: Will Russia Invade Ukraine Tonight.
Reminds me of Obama and Hillary's laughable "red line" concerning Syria. Putin knows Biden is weak, unpopular at home, and will do nothing in the event of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Re: Father and son murder-suicide in Donegal
Tis fair sad it happened alright. Pity Mr suicide didn't just kill himself and leave the other fella live , dunno what made him do it though so I presume there was some reason to make him be a dick and murder someone. If the father was 88 and nearing death’s door anyway we can presume the disagreem...

Father and son murder-suicide in Donegal
The men have been named locally as Daniel Duffy (88) and his son, Damien (50). This comes after the Kanturk murders in October 2020 arising from a family dispute over land and the North Kerry murders in September this year where the father shot his wife and son dead but we’re not allowed to discuss ...

So it’s not a woman, it’s a tranny? Either way I’d welcome an invasion from Russia or China at this stage. The West is over. Imagine relying on triple chin, androgynous Harry Potter to defend the country.

I don't think you understand the first thing about what you are saying. You're comparing a race RATIO within the overall population to an overall population (of panda's).

I don't think "white people living in the United States" is remotely comparable to the species "Ailuropoda melanoleuca". The white population of the United States could drop to zero without the interests of the human race, or even of the white portion of it, being adversely affe...
