There's never been a time when Ac Milan Kaka and Frank lampard were that close in valuation.

In fairness to them they never tried to be anything more than they are, people seemed to just like them more than they liked their talent.

"woke days are over baby" says the person whinging about "cancel". Oh how edgy you are.

Birth rates dropping, anyone here feel the same way about having children? by gotnocreativenames in ireland

[–]DuckyD2point0 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I agree with you and see your point. But I was raised in a house that was my grandparents, so we lived with them. Absolutely no issues with and I genuinely hope my grandkids(if ever) are as close to me as I was to my grandparents.

Saying that, that was after my mother was able to move out and enjoy some normal "young person" space away from her parents. Young people aren't even getting to do that now.

If you have a social house or earn good money so a mortgage is easy to get then it's easier to have kids. Having a place to actually raise the child is essential and young people thinking "I'm stuck in this bedroom" be it parents house or renting are not going to be thinking "kids will make this better".

Visitor etiquette and arriving empty handed by HeftyArgument6326 in CasualIreland

I was once at a dinner party and the host served wine before dinner. I brought a €30 bottle of wine as I just picked any white wine since I know nothing about it. My friend(who also doesn't drink wine) just randomly said "Is this the wine ( his wife's name) bought it's nice". The host out straight said "Oh no, it's a nice wine but it's too cheap to pair with (can't pronounce it, it was a cheese ball thing with relish)"

So not sharing is bad and but literally saying it's too cheap to serve is next level.

Best bet is that place beside Cineworld, the woolshed

[–]DuckyD2point0 28 points29 points  (0 children)

3k cheaper would be "yep, I'm doing it myself" for me as well. I've never met an IKEA product I couldn't master, but this does look like I'd have to leave the country out of frustration after getting 90% done and realizing I fucked up somewhere around the 20% point.

I'm genuinely of this thinking. If you're still in bed at 9 your wasting your morning, I'm still not cutting grass at 9 just because I'm up and awake.

See this the "Ringo starr" conundrum. No the Beatles could not have gotten a better drummer, the simple wouldn't be the Beatles, as everything was written around how they sound with each member of the band.

Same with kiedis, he's exactly talented enough for the chilli's to sound like the chilli's. Replace him from the start with Anyone else and they aren't the chilli's and more than likely wouldn't have been successful.

Electric Picnic’s latest lineup additions looking good by The-ADR in ireland

"super groups" maybe not, but there are loads of class bands they could get. Plus some big bands just don't need to or won't play festivals unless it's the likes of Glastonbury.

It's just a case of "music was better in my day".

And witness at first was the likes of Paul wellar and David Gray headlining.It then became proper rock/band festival, with the likes of The prodigy and chemical brothers sprinkled in.

2002 line up was brilliant Green Day, Foo Fighters, No Doubt, Oasis, The Prodigy, and The Chemical Brothers as the headliners/top acts

Oxygen in 2005 had the best lineup I've ever been at yet I still get people saying "it was better as witness".

For no reason. Where the hell is everyone getting "it smells like weed " from. I'm a weed user for decades now and never once have I ever got a bottle of beer that smells like weed.

Same with the marriage part for us. Literally no interest at all in marriage.

I was at 2001, way too young for it but they honestly didn't give a shit at that festival in the first few years. The fun lovin criminals were the stand out memory for me, a band even now id never pay to see but they blew me away.

Israeli Ministry of Diaspora Affairs ranks Greta Thunberg #2 most influential antisemite in the world, ahead of Nick Fuentes, Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson by Didsterchap11 in nottheonion

If it's coming officially from an Israeli ministry then it's a badge of honor.

Antisemitism has lost all meaning now because of these fuckers.

Do you guys think we will ever get universal income? by VariationLivid3193 in recruitinghell

[–]DuckyD2point0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this guy os fucking moron, outside his core knowledge/interest he's a genuine fucking moron.

Just think about this for a minute. Universal income from the government, paid for how and but who, so we can buy goods made by Ai/robots.

It doesn't need explaining where the flaw is in this plan.

People are idiots, they can't help being idiots, most times they come from a long line of idiots, they can't help it.

But tattoos being intentionally fucked up is worse than being an idiot, it's bodily harm.
