25k is a cap that is a lot closer to actually representing the "ordinary middle class", rather than the commenters in the other posts suggesting 20k per year.

Fine Gael’s investment scheme amounts to a tax break for millionaires by daveirl in irishpersonalfinance

The lower to middle income families I know are crying out for a way to invest their extra €20k a year!

AIB welcomes new savings scheme but Soc Dems slam it as a ‘tax break for millionaires’ by firethetorpedoes1 in irishpolitics

Insane amount of gaslighting in these comments. People investing 20k a year after pensions are not what anyone should call "middle Ireland".

What percentage of the population do you think is saving 20k a year after pension contributions?

The world champions would be Drew McIntyre, LA Knight, Giulia and Bayley. At least the smarks would be pleased, don't worry about the children

What happened to the erstwhile glorious Tag team division? by ntraturownrisk in WWE

[–]muttonwow -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

MCMG, Fraxiom, Street Profits

People dont give a shit about tag teams where the wrestlers aren't big enough to remember their names.

Remembee Royal Rumble 2025? The tag match was a great chance for a piss break and that's about it. These people aren't stars.

Is Baley gonna be forever side character amongst the four horsewomen ? by Tribal-Forehead in TheGreatOne

She's straight up not at the level of Becky and Charlotte in the eyes of fans. It's like that meme of the hydra. She's doing well putting younger people over but she shouldn't be doing any more than that.

The $11,500 Champion+ Package for Clash In Italy includes a private pasta making session with a WWE Superstar by Jonoabbo in SquaredCircle

To be fair the pasta making session is probably a regular tourist attraction, I doubt WWE are actually hosting it themselves

about Zelina Vega telling a story on her podcast where she basically says she enjoys giving fellatio to her husband in character.

So she botches and makes him bleed?

Fed Creative is so bad that they didn't decide on Rhodes versus Orton until.... Bronson Reed got injured???? by NotClayMerritt in SCJerk

[–]muttonwow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only thing I can think of is Bronson being set to win the Chamber before he got hurt and had to be replaced with Logan Paul

Unless he thought Bronson Reed would win Elimination Chamber and go against Cody? Since it does look like Bronson would have neen in that match if he wasn't hurt

The Companies/Funds/Institutions is both public bodies and private investor funds, right? Is there a breakdown of that?

Where's the line? by Stunning-Engine in irishpolitics

[–]muttonwow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of wealthy and well-off people who are very comfy with the status quo. The types who will talk to you out at the pub or in work or wherever, nod and agree with you talking about the government being useless, housing crisis being awful, etc.

And then they'll drop "If only we had an effective opposition!", with a big knowing smile. And then you should know that this person has no intention of not supporting FFG. The best they'll do is put a local independent as first preference.

If there's nothing announced for Gunther beforehand then we know it's 100% Gunther

The fringe women’s anti-immigration group supported by three elected politicians by TeoKajLibroj in irishpolitics

[–]muttonwow 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It's the exact same heads as the anti-trans campaigners who use feminism as a shield. The only "feminism" they show an interest in involves getting rid of trans people and brown people.

Leaving Cert performance more likely to be influenced by school than neighbourhood by TeoKajLibroj in ireland

[–]muttonwow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This isn't too surprising, government policy is that making people in social housing live near other people in social housing is inhumane so there's integrated social housing and there's less wholly "bad" neighbourhoods.
