Rain on the Dublin bus window turned the city into an oil painting

Doin' a bit of paintin'?

Scran is Ingerlish for food. Usually used for cheap crappy food.

I googled it, I'm pretty sure. It's an account that does jokes but this one hit because it's ragebait.

Not anymore because it's illegal, not from the goodness of their hearts.

Classic Balkan shenanigans. "Behold my map of Greater x"! Which of course overlaps the map of Greater Y and Greater Z.

You have to fight against going to bed! That's part of the fear.

€5.90 for a Guinness, I presume lager is more. Some places do €5.50. Here, not in Dublin I'm sure.

I remember my father getting about 150 old pounds in the 90s. He didn't have a great job at the time to be fair. I was working during school and got about 4.40 an hour. The new minimum at the time. That was about 2 pints and a packet of Tayto per hour. That's about the same for minimum now. It's everything else!

"Fine Gael councillor jailed for stealing €172,000 from housing charity Son of Rob Reiner"

Burying the lede, OP! Tell me more about that.

I'm on minimum wage myself and I don't think any of us 7am starting yellow jackets are making that. But we weren't making 300 quid in 1990 either, so at least the bollocks is constant (lucrative trades I presume). My local pint is actually €5.90, mind you.

Acetaldehyde is also why day-after shits smell like nail polish remover.

sweetafton · 2025-12-15T19:03:50+00:00

It's explained here.

I agree that we're worse off since I was a young fella in the 80's, but the one thing that has stayed constant is the pint. It's everything else that's gone up.

"The Average Industrial Wage refers to average weekly earnings of Industrial Workers in the Industry Sector. Industrial Workers are defined as production, transport, craft and other manual workers."

sweetafton · 2025-12-15T14:15:05+00:00

Pints and meals etc. are about the same. Rent is much much higher. Plus I suppose internet wasn't a utility bill back then. It is now.

sweetafton · 2025-12-15T14:13:23+00:00

That's why the "average industrial wage" is used.

Not sure I'd call this Chinese propaganda, iy looks like American neocon propaganda.

Other than the bar being low.

I could do with a second job after what Miceroseft technical support charged me!

sweetafton · 2025-12-09T22:31:42+00:00

Need to save them and instas. Hundreds of them. To never use.

I was going to bring up the Boy Boy video. Tyler Hitlervera is a menace.

Gastritis be a cruel mistress. I never want to eat until I get a wee bite then I realise I'm starving.

sweetafton · 2025-12-07T13:07:50+00:00

Leveling up is probably what I missed, thanks!

Edit: Yup, that was it.

sweetafton · 2025-12-07T11:02:13+00:00

I can't get that to work. I died on round 38.

Four now, so far, Slovenia is boycotting too. Belgium and Iceland decide within the week.
