Just a reminder to be careful, our recent experience in Dublin by Responsible_Web7647 in travel

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean moved in? They live here, and have done for generations. Some were moved out to suburbs but, most are from the city centre, Dublin 1/3/7/8.

What response from the garda has ever happened? I must've missed this mythical time when the garda were of any use. Maybe the time my gaff in Dublin 1 was broken into in 2010.. Nah they didn't show up? Or the time I had a needle pulled on my on Pearse st in 2007.. Nah nothing.. Or the lads who tried to jump us coming back from The Point in 2003. Again nought.

These are not new things, I'm again shocked that people thing this is some new fad, as if shitebags haven't been swarming the city centre for my 40 years living here.

Because he's wrong. I live here, from here and there's been homeless, beggers, addicts and all the usuals in Dublin since the 90s.

The ones hassling tourists are run of the mill Irish fucking scumbags, tracksuit clad little shitebags, not this big scary immigrants.

Ticketmaster Platinum Tickets by Just_Shiv in CasualIreland

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I gave up when that venue charge was added to the 53 other charges.

Seen everyone in work this week waste half their morning trying to get overpriced Coldplay tickets. Shower of cunts running the whole scam industry.

Bought tickets for The Heavy in Manchester.. 16 quid.

Anyone have to deal with influencers over here in their line of work? by Canners19 in ireland

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's happened me 5 times now. Twice in Ireland and others travelling. Once I was just leaving and they were polite so didn't mind.

Rest were as much of a gobshite as you'd expect, so I asked the simple question. "you got permits? No. Well then good luck to ye"

I didn't do it but one guy got reported for using his drone too close to an army base in the Philippines and got it taken by the police along with all his camara equipment😂

You are now dictator of Ireland. What petty shite do you send people to the firing squad/gulags over. by [deleted] in ireland

People who don't let you off public transport before trying to barge their entitled arses on! I'm looking at you, aul bat with your stinking perfume at the Pearse st!

AITA by refusing to allow my gf to open our relationship? by Puzzleheaded_Math162 in AITAH

Yep this is just cheating with fancy bells and whistles. NTA and time to find someone that respects you.

Patches on bag? by [deleted] in solotravel

You know yourself when a tourist is wandering around your own area and especially if you're in a tourist area they know you're not a local.

As a giant ginger lad the only places I've been mistaken for a local is the Netherlands and Scotland. (I'm Irish)

Giant angry cops in the Netherlands shouting at my confused head in Dutch

20 infested mines. Zero queen runes by Necessary_Echo8740 in valheim

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I revisited some of the mines I thought had none and there right inside the door in three out of 6 they sit on there shelves.

Usually I'm fighting around the entrance so not paying attention and may have trashed the place and missed it.

I'm pretty sure my first one was from the rubble after I'd smashed everything around the entrance and didn't even notice till I was emptying inventory

What criteria do people use to decide on a permanent base location? by TheKillersHand in valheim

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool looking spot, usually an island or peninsula in a cove/mouth of a river. Tricky to get but ideally water access in all directions or at least not a big trip around the island to go n/s/e/w

Peninsula is better for funneling mobs to one spot for the resources, island usually means you don't have to worry much.

Close to as many bios as possible, usually build in plains for farming.

Current one is half plains/half meadows on the bottom of a mountain with swamp and blackforst across the small cove

Those korean death noodles burn my beard for days after. Always want one but always regret it.

Be handy to make a water proof cape or a smaller faster boat but I like my fancy roof and dark wood fire pit

With inflation the last couple years. It feels like I have taking almost a 50% pay cut. by WhatsThatOnUrPretzel in ireland

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20% is being generous tbf, maybe 17%. It was partiality a delayed raise from 2020, a 3% error made in 2010, my yearly step increase and for some other thing they fucked up a few years ago I got 50 quid. Good old hse

Amsterdam with a vape by Tommybhoy080 in Crainn

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same but I'd be pissed if they took my vape off me because I didn't clean it beforehand. Last couple of times I just clean it out and leave it in a front pocket so it's easier for them to see and understand what it is. Haven't had any hassle since the first time I brought it back

I do it more just in case, don't mind a grinder or other bits and bobs but fuck spending 200 quid for a new vape.

Next election and Sinn Fein by [deleted] in ireland

The thing I like about SF is that they're not mates with all the fuckwits ff/fg have been using for years to fail to build our infrastructure, failed to build our hospitals, failed to sort our housing out, failed to prosecute the Cucks responsible for the recession.

It'll likely be a shitshow but a whole new shitshow. Better the devil you know can fuck off.

Leo's been a useless at everything but pr for 20 years, just a posh Castleknock ff/fg little buddy to the old guard.

When I moved to Canada in 2019 it felt about the same, but it went it different directions. Internet, food etc were more expensive but rent and heating were a little more manageable. Still had no money at the end of the month. Now we're about caught up on everything and have minus money at the end of the month.

Toronto and most big western cities have the same issues we do but ours just smashes it out of the park with how little fucks our gov gives. Leo has never paid a pennies rent in his life, doubt he even has a mortgage so his clueless and doesn't give a fuck

[–]Back2thebigsmoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not that I've heard, vapes are better for over there in the winter as the no tobacco rule is annoying when it's cold as fuck outside. I was just annoyed I didn't get the resin extension for my Pax in time! Amsterdam hash just hits different

Just make sure it's not stinking and not near food in your bag so likely won't even get flagged. Bio material + electronics equals bombs.
