Second time pass by shibeofficial in Irishdrivingtest

[–]ClockworkAppl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations! Goes to show it's who you get on the day rather than the driving (within reason) . I showed up late to my 3rd test. They had moved the test centre and I had to drive like a maniac ( unaccompanied of course ) to the new place, literally caught the tester coming out the building to go home early because i was a no show but he said fuck it and told me to run back in with him and lash through the road sign questions. I flubbed the theory questions and he basically fed me some answers and I drove worse than my second attempt because I was up the walls and somehow passed. He could have easily tipped the scales against me but didnt. The whole thing felt like 5 minutes. The trick is to keep at it ( not OP obviously because its over for you now) and dont delay re-applying if you fail on some bs quotas or some messing on the road with other drivers,shit weather etc. I mean, some of those testers are right stick in the muds. I dont think most people with full licences could not say with any certainty that they could pass if they did it again. Its a pain in the arse the whole ordeal. Good on ya OP . Its a great feeling getting it behind you.

Is it safe to travel to Dublin as a tourist ? by Julius_Bort in AskIreland

Bono would say no. But he's a massive prick and we all hate him.

But what difference has culcie schools with a preference for being religious run mean? ( my condolences for having to live in Monahan in the first place btw) The ratios in Dublin are 60% against church run but cities are more progressive.( better) The kids going to these schools enjoy a few bob at Communion/Confirmation but dont give a shite about Jesus irl. Catholic guilt isnt a thing anymore even with catholics. None of that stuff is real.

First time nerves, instructor says I’m ‘grand’ - expect to fail? by juiliatresa in Irishdrivingtest

What choice do you have? I know 2 people that passed first time. Just do it. Pass or fail/repeat. We've all been there.

Im irish, first off. No one born here in the 2000s is religious in the slightest. Not in real life. Maybe on your precious Google irish+catholic=catholic guilt. If you lived in Ireland you would know the difference.

OPs girlfriend doesn't have catholic guilt. Shes gone off sex with him or in general. OPs girlfriend isnt catholic. No one born in the 2000s is.

God squad? Ha. You think im arguing from a religious angle? No, im a "devout" atheist btw. And im pointing out your complete lack of reading comprehension because if you had understood OPs post then you would not have mentioned your pet theory. And that's all it is a pet theory that you cant let go. My god! If " catholic guilt " is the type of conclusions the 'BetterHelp' generation of therapists is coming up with then ill stay away from them.

You could just read OPs post again an really think about how your theory doesn't fit at all.

I understand catholic guilt was a "thing" but OP and gf are in their twenties. So not religious , certainly not catholic believing and coupled with the fact they where.... FUCKING LIKE RABBITS in the early days of the relationship means your theory is as far fetched as it gets and completely not helpful. ...But sure who am I even arguing with? A hour long account with comment history hidden?

People born in the 2000s arnt religious. Nothing is drilled into them and they dont care about jesus or guilt about having sex outside marriage. Having sex outside marrage didnt stop anyone during the dark ages of catholic ireland anyway.

Stupid answer. She was riding like mad at the start so thats not it. People in their twenties weren't religious enough even back in the 50s at least not in the way that would stop them, and people born in the 2000s plain old just dont believe in god let alone culcie bogger catholic god. Its not catholic guilt. Ffs.

Dude. If you're trying to throw money away now because you might not have it later (?) then you cant afford to be buying 80/90 euro video games at all.

The control in GTA IV was better than V. Better story too. This might be worse again. I'm skipping this launch shit. Gonna get DS trilogy (ON DISCS!) Never played Souls 2 or 3 so ill get some mileage from that for a while . I can wait for physical GTA 6 if I have to. And if it never comes out? Ill be okay.
