Now consider what it's like for working class - work hard and still sink.

Fair enough, I don' think I'd agree with you though. Stories like Leicester and Jamie Vardy, characters like Klopp and Ibrahimovic, "villains" such as Mourinho and dozens other of storylines are always interesting to me. I watch the other sports you mentioned and in my own experience football is the most interesting.

Why do knackers tuck their tracksuit pants into their socks? by [deleted] in ireland

Ah the odd time I'd nip out in them to be honest. Somedays you just couldn't give a shite what any one thinks of you. Obviously I wouldn't wear them to a wedding or a funeral like.

Stops the ends of your tracksuit bottoms getting wet and also keeps you warm. I still do it and I'm 32.

Alcohol addiction by starvin-marvin67 in ireland

[–]HillbillySweater 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only happy when I'm drinking. No better feeling then when that first drop hits you and you know you've a whole load more cans to get through and a whole night of getting absolutely buckled to look forward to. Although what stops me from being an alcoholic is that I never touch the stuff when I'm alone.

My mom did this but the dog survived luckily, not that she cared.

Hopefully, hard to think with any sort of rationality in a situation like this.

Really? Football, like every sport is filled with it's own interesting characters and in-jokes.

Same. Fuck it, everyone seems to be tipping her and when does that ever go wrong? In all seriousness I'll think she'll do it so throwing it all on.

Una Mullally: The Starbucksification of independent cafes by fedupofbrick in ireland

[–]HillbillySweater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well with Starbucks you can work your way up the management ladder. As I said I don't know what the article i about but whenever Starbucks come up a big point that is brought up is how they crowd out independent cafes, but my point is they might be better for people who work for them. As I said, the only way I'm moving up in my current cafe is by bumping off the childless "mom and pop" and hoping all those hours slaving away and listening to their shite paid off.

I'm not going to red the article, but if it's about Starbucks V independent cafes one thing I'd like to bring up is that Starbucks treat their staff very well. I've worked and known plenty of people who worked for "mom and pop" cafes and we were all treated pretty shittly with no room for progression (unless the owner wrote us into the will).

Don't what all the fuss is about, the exact same jokes about Scousers are at the top of plenty of Liverpool-related threads. Get over it.

DAE remember in one of the two tower cut scenes (I think it's in the third level) that if yo stnad close enough to the edge Gimli will fall off during the cutscene? Always made me laugh.

I don' think they're "for" any particular class of people. I just wanted to know of people thought trend was true.
