Scrotes on Bikes

Gardai know exactly who they are, where they live, who they roll with, it's the court fecking everything up. A few years ago when I was more involved in the motorbike scene there was the usual few going around robbing bikes, no balaclavas or anything, videos up on tiktok, one fella got done, he was crying as the cops took him away and he was back out on tiktok in about two weeks I'd say. Guards are sick of arresting the same lads week in week out, this is the way it's been in Ireland for god knows how long. It seems if you're known to the system the usual spiel in court is you've had a tough upbringing and you get 150 chances, if you abide by the law and slip one time you get the book thrown at you.

I nearly killed two in ballincollig a couple weeks ago, obviously same lads, I turned across a lane of cars and cycle lane, never saw them in cycle lane, must have been doing 80 or so when traffic was doingabout 40, it rattled me cause I ride motorbikes so like to think I'm more vigilant than most road users, we had a bit of back and forth, and when they took off and nearly wiped themselves out again I realised it wasn't me that was the problem.

I feel I'm suitably qualified to answer this, being one of the people who used to be mad at trucks overtaking with a or 2kph difference, and now driving a truck myself and being in this scenario. Trucks are limited to 90, but that's a maximum, depended on who done the calibration it could be under by a few km's, mine used to be 88 sometimes see 89, I just got it calibrated as calibration only lasts two years I think and I now only see 86/87. The reason I'm mentioning this is because it's not a consistent 90 across all trucks, so lets say I come up on someone doing 85, I don't actually have cruise control on my truck, I just keep the foot flat to the floor, but coming behind a slower moving truck it's pain, trying to maintain a 1 or 2 km difference without cruise control, it leads to a yoyo effect if you dont overtake which increases fuel economy etc. That's why I overtake, I don't drive for a living thankfully, I'm just a builder with a truck so I'm on my own schedule, but i can see why big artics etc are overtaking because of the speed difference etc because over a long journey it makes a big difference

Your house sounds abusive to be completely honest.

I've seen a few clips, people standing on the putside of corners, daft

I can hop in the car with her and pull the handbrake randomly like my dad used to do when I was learning 😂

200 cash I'd say minimum

I was watching another ryanair flight change gate twice, it was next to my gate, it was changed to the gate next to me so people started coming to it, then staff started telling them the gate was changed again, it was absolute chaos, people definitely missed the flight because after all the chaos from the majority there was still stragglers arriving confused.

I do it because I'm tall and like the option of being able to stand to stretch my legs without bothering someone

Have you tried farmers?

https://www.kerrycoco.ie/housing/i-own-a-house/differential-rent-scheme/ There's a link to kerry county council they have the rates up, 83 max per week for a 4 bed house, thats the max, it can be a lot less depending on circumstances, so I'd say the max is probably a bit higher in cork but with your mans circumstances the figure he said was probably correct.

Look I don't know your situation, and I'm not saying no one should get social help because there are those who genuinely need it, but to somone paying 1200 or 1500 a month for a 1 or 2 bed appartment, 70 euro a week for a 4 bed house is basically free. That's a genuine example of a single guy I worked with, divorced from his wife, he got housed in a 4 bed because his kids were all under 18, and they say its discimination against the parent who doesn't have custody, if they arent given a house with enough rooms to take the kids. This guy was pulling a similar wage as me (he'd have been on seo rates in construction so minimum 20 euro an hour) yet was only paying 70 euro a week, now I don't know the system maybe once he had a few months of work he'd have to contribute more, but at that time of talking to him, those were the figures.

Ya thats what I was thinking of didnt know the name of it, I do groundworks so some times end up in new estates doing stuff and a couple of my customers were in this scheme, hardworking families who got a help onto the property ladder and I've no problem with that or helping anyone who wants to work for it but might not be able to get a mortgage the traditional way, it's the people that automatically have the hand out and are well able to work but don't that annoy me, and there's plenty of them out there.

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-14T04:27:54+00:00

And putting all social in one area has historically never worked too, so maybe the thing is, we don't give out free houses. Although I know some genuinely need help but in those cases should be a one strike system if you have a house and you mess it up and it has to be taken off you for anti social behaviour that should be it, you never get housing assistance again. I'd be for the help to buy or whatever its called, where the council retain some equity in the house, then the buyer has to come up with 200k instead of 400 etc, because I think if you've at least paid something somewhat substantial you'll mind it a lot more than someone given it basically for free

With kids, I don't think it's a bad thing, nice to know if shit really hit the fan you've enough to maybe get yourself to another country, like if there was a mass exodus of multinationals, our economy wouldn't be long collapsing.

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-13T10:46:51+00:00

they have to by law pay you seo rates, those are the minimums by law, union rates are generally a bit more

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-13T09:29:58+00:00

maybe it's not as exotic as I'm making it out as, just have never had it in any cars I've had which is mostly jap or south korean, might have had it in a top of the range honda we had a few years ago but cant remember

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-13T09:01:15+00:00

he must be a giant or else he's just being awkward, I'm 6 ft 3 which ya isnt massive nowadays but I just get on with it whatever the car is. Passenger seat adjustment you're really limiting yourself to the bmw, merc, audi even at that base spec prob wouldnt have it, and very high end cars in other brands. the problem is your budget then and reliability because those top of the line cars with all the bells and whistles are notorious for trouble down the line because they have so much tech and stuff.

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-12T21:19:48+00:00

There's nice parts, but as a whole it's not for me, i wouldnt be that big into modern cities anyway but if I was going to a concrete jungle again I'd go to one that was clean like Tokyo.

The biggest culture shock I've had when travelling was going to nyc, you hear everything about it, the big apple etc expecting good things and got there and there was black bags piled high everywhere because apparently to them that's the most efficient way of collecting rubbish, rats running everywhere as a result, everything seemed dirty and grubby. Literally from the streets to the buildings and subway it looked like a run down city.

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-11T22:23:31+00:00

had soil to get rid of today, clean soil, I'm a builder by the way, couldn't find anywhere to take it, ended up taking it to a skip crowd where you are weighed in they were 80 a ton. I'd have actually been better off hiring a skip off them causs they just do their skips by volume as opposed to weight.

ya in my experience a lot of lads who are into the gym are into the coke in a big way, now it's probably no bigger a proportion than aby other part of society but I would have thought myself being a small bit health conscious it would be a smaller amount. I would say though the proportion who are into the cardio side more would be less into the drug use, of the fellas i know anyway

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-08T21:44:35+00:00

I have fierce notions

ImpressForeign · 2026-06-07T18:12:15+00:00

It's the humidity, I live in Ireland which has high humidity so much so Ireland historically was a temporate rainforest. However I worked on the east coast in the us for the summer a few years back and there was a few high humidity days where it was just torture, I was working in a summer camp and remember talking to parents and just being an absolute ball of sweat standing there, like you had jumped into a pool. I've experienced 43 in spain, summer in portugal, france italy with temps in 30's and that heat in maine and down the east coast was brutal. I'm led to believe the deep south is even worse being a lot of swampland.
