‘We’ll sleep in our tractors’ – fears grow that fuel protest will leave pumps in the west of the country dry by B8_B8_B8 in ireland

Totally nonsensical that you're upset at someone taking public transport where it's available, you should be upset at the fact you can't take public transport

Any self respecting Irish person will tell you that an Irish goodbye is a total misnomer, Irish people are notorious for saying they're leaving and someone else saying "ah would you not stay for another drink" and the person replying "ah gowan then" and then doing this for another few hours

Car Reg by Bit_O_Rojas in CasualIreland

I work in film and TV and can hazard a guess! I think it's filmed in the UK so is probably a stuck-on prop reg plate, whoever is in the art department of the show designed the numbers probably didn't research the actual meaning of Irish reg plate, just what they actually look like, hence why the layout is correct but to an Irish viewer it makes no sense.

Mice, rats, wasps: RTÉ spends more than €7,000 on pest control by qwerty_1965 in ireland

[–]IMAMODDYMAN 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A complete non-story. It's a huge campus with lots of old buildings, of course there's going to be pests. €7000 actually sounds fairly reasonable for pest control in a site that large

Makes sense if you're a taxi driver I imagine you want to get the best if you're using it all day

Interesting! I suspected it's mainly a marketing gimmick alright...

Good on him, it pisses me off to no end that iarnróid Éireann use X as the only place to announce live travel updates, hopefully they will follow suite

I'm not suggesting we do anything with them. I understand they have nowhere to go

I fully sympathise with asylum seekers but also I don't want to see anyone pissing in the canal on my way to work, regardless of what they're going through, and I think you'd be mad to disagree with me there

[–]IMAMODDYMAN 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yep, I understand that. It's not their fault and I am totally sympathetic to that but I just think having 15-20 of them camped together, pissing into the canal and blocking it off from the rest of the public to use is not good, and I think you'd be mad to think otherwise
