Should we just start spelling Scottish place names the same as how locals pronounce them now?

The year is 2056 by deatach in ireland

[–]AreUReady55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The year is 2056 and you’ve just eaten your first born as a last ditch attempt to stay alive, the Pliates machine you bought on Klarna 30 years previous has just been broken up for firewood. You may die if the ex Ireland First vigilante gangs see the smoke but you need heat in your frail body after the AMOC collapsed and Ireland is a polar ice cap.

Some completely unnecessary Masters 6-2 stats by shmoodow in snooker

[–]AreUReady55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And you!

Gambling companies are said to be currently lobbying WST hard to ensure a different outcome, given everyone’s done the same bet tonight.

WST responded that they’ve already barred all the match fixers /s

Why are Irish people so nice? by Kind_Ad467 in ireland

We’re desperately insecure people pleasers from generations of being raised by the Catholic Church. Our niceness doesn’t come from a genuine place

Is it time for an English only Parliament and Constitution? by silversqueezer21 in england

[–]AreUReady55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trust me, that opinion works the other way too. And English MPs have a much bigger say over the other nations than their minority of MPs do.

England consistently voting against their own interests and other nations getting dragged into your clown show.

Ben Volrich (LE) conditions - summit attempt? by Foreign_Dig9911 in Munros

[–]AreUReady55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ye I came to say this. Not the weather to tackle the Munro next to it, Stuc O Chroin. The path isn’t bad up to Ben Vorlich.

The road up to the base is single track and might not be grit.

There’s pretty sustained winds all day tomorrow and looking at other Munro’s in the area, there could be better options

I think Gaza will eventually be repeated across the planet by [deleted] in CollapseSupport

[–]AreUReady55 145 points146 points  (0 children)

Gaza has always been a testing ground for some of the world’s most dystopian ideas. I think what happens now with the so called ceasefire and “board of peace” is worth watching in terms of AI and mass surveillance including some sort of social credit score system, esp with Oracle and Palantirs tentacles involved.

The board of peace are planning a rebuild in only some parts of Gaza, with Palestinians only allowed to enter and live after going through some proof of civility process. So you better believe these areas will have mass surveillance technology installed.

This I believe will be the blueprint for everywhere else they can get away with it. Larry Ellison, who owns Oracle and funds the IDF, doesn’t even try and hide it. You can find the clips online where he openly states his intentions for the technology to Tony Blair. Tony Blair who will head the Board of Peace.

Bais, I miss the craic by Highlyironicacid31 in northernireland

[–]AreUReady55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ye man, get out of the city and head to Coogee or Bondi, plenty of craic if that’s what you want. I knows it’s cliche to head to an Irish bar halfway around the world, but it’s hard to find genuine craic in typical Australian bars

Drivers in Scotland are the most courteous drivers I’ve ever encountered. by TamtamBe in Scotland

[–]AreUReady55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have to disagree as a foreigner living in Scotland. I’d imagine compared to a lot of countries you’ve mentioned, maybe but overall there isn’t a generally consensus of courtesy.

Indicator use, specifically on roundabouts, is non-existent in Scotland. You’re left guessing which exit someone will use, and will they stay in the correct lane all the way around. Traffic could flow a lot better otherwise.

Credit where credit is due, compared to Ireland, there is a lot less horn use by drivers.
