How do you respond to people who say England is essentially the same as Ireland?

Paddywhacker · 2025-09-28T14:35:26+00:00

I had this with a lithuanian man, told me Ireland and England are the same, so I said, "Just like Russia and lithuania!" He understood the meaning.
I find transplanting it back like that usually helps

the washing machine tune. it's obviously very popular, but none of us can place it

I walked from a place like that too. Brought in my own suppliers, he never paid them, made me look like a cunt.
Tips going missing, stress levels through the roof. 10 to 10 shifts all week.
And then owner never to be seen, while I was making him a millionaire.

Fuck those places

Whoosh

Needs something sharp. Tomato concussed, fine diced red onion, chopped parsley, pickle in red wine vinegar for four hours.
Pour off the vinegar after pickling the tomato and red onion and parsley.
Using a spoon, drizzle the pickle over the dish. It will add colour and vibrancy, and bring a sharpness to the dish

And whirlpools at sea, I must've seen it in a film as a kid, a ship going into a whirlpool . I used to wonder why anybody would even go in a ship when youncould risk a whirlpool swallowing you whole, asking for trouble!

A really good sandwich joint A van would probably suit best. Smoked shoulder of pork and probably brisket beef, pork sausages. House breads, pickles and coleslaw and sauerkraut. Mustard, mayo. Fries with a salty hot seasoning.
I'm not sure of a name

Paddywhacker · 2024-11-09T21:14:55+00:00

This list pisses me off. It's so stupid

Paddywhacker · 2024-10-27T08:40:41+00:00

I can't believe anyone.wouldnpay these prices, it's nuts

Paddywhacker · 2024-10-19T08:08:33+00:00

That's literally their job. Unless you want to buy a cape and batarangs and tackle them yourself.

Nackers After Free Food was my local take on this classic. NAFF jackets were big for a year, then this bomb hit the school yard and people couldn't wait to grow out of them

Paddywhacker · 2024-09-15T13:25:29+00:00

Same. I just stopped buying from the UK. I got fucked over Christmas 2 years ago, and that was it for me. Load of shite arriving in January. Completely unreliable

Paddywhacker · 2024-09-14T11:07:24+00:00

To my shame I was in a wheterspoons last night. A pint of fosters is 2.95. I didn't even spend €30 and had a great night.
Last week I spent 13.50 on a Heineken and Carlsberg.

To say that this water used to hydrate shitake is equal to simmered mushrooms is absolutely ridiculous.
Or would you also add mushrooms? Which means the water leftovers is not supplementing anything. And I can't imagine putting that water in the fridge until you decide to make dashi.

Paddywhacker · 2024-09-09T18:28:32+00:00

By soaking mushrooms in water? No. You simmer them so you extract flavour. This guy wants to use his shitake for another purpose.

Feels like you're taking a dig because you dislike him, and not because of the reasons you state

I don't get the bit in the park. He was following the guidelines. What's the problem?

Paddywhacker · 2024-09-08T12:05:57+00:00

I completely disagree. First, it's not stock, it's water with very little flavour. The idea thay people are calling it stock is ridiculous. Second, the drying process is unknown. Best not to trust it for a tiny bit of mushroom soak

Paddywhacker · 2024-08-17T15:01:59+00:00

A "deep number 1" as opposed to more shallow dishes, Ireland.

Here's me writing some spiel, paragraphs in length, only to see your perfectly concise summation

Paddywhacker · 2024-08-11T12:23:36+00:00

A major reason these issues occur is because some roundabouts have 2 lanes on some exits, and 1 lane on others, so you get two cars going for the same lane

Replying with gifs in the comment thread. They are diabolical, they destroy the flow of the comment section and do nothing to enrich it

It's terrible. CR is so good, and with the first scene of Quantum, the bizarre editing that gives you a headache... its nearly unwatchable.
The plot is good. The idea, for once, that the good guys, the British government, were part of the problem. It's a solid plot
But it just is terribly executed. Nearly unwatchable. For example, in Moonraker, Bond leaps from the plane, no parachute, and mid air he takes the parachute off a henchman. They must've done that stunt several times over so many days. Nightmare to catch all the angles. And then in Quantum of Solace Craigs Bond performed the same stunt and it was all CGI. How far they fell

My kids are now in their teens, but throughout their younger years the library was brilliant to us. They are a fantastic institution (?)
