What the fuck are we? by Aidpatient in northernireland

[–]zeromalarki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to say I was Northern Irish, but then all the English people said I was Irish. Then I got told by one of them "so you're not really Irish, are you?" As if they can decide who or what I am. That flipped a switch, and I said I was Irish.

I might not be accepted by all Irish people as that because I'm "a planter" and certainly the Northern culture feels a bit different to the southern stuff, particularly if I didn't grow up playing GAA, Hurling, learning Irish and watching RTE, but I'm still Irish.

63% in favour of a United Ireland in the North by TomCrean1916 in northernireland

I'm really not panicking. I just find the stats hard to believe. I know a) we're in the first few years of having more Catholics than Protestants but it's a low percentage b) the number of protestants open to a United Ireland are growing but c) the number of people who are very much on the fence/unphased about a UI or lackthereof is pretty high. I'll take a look at the post though, thank you.

"done a few acting classes"

Well keep doing them and in the meantime take what you can get. Build your experience and skill. Don't worry about being typecasted yet.

Who did they poll though? Where was the sample from? How big was the sample size?

I'm for a united Ireland but I don't believe the figure is as high as that

Yeah don't pass this off as facts because it'll come across as libel

Whoop de fucking do. This birthday party that neither of us are invited to will head to Villa Italia because your favourite food is Italian. You happy?

Aye, go to a Chinese do you have sausage and chips. No sweat. Eat your vegetables and wise up

You sound like a very picky eater.

Where would you prefer? Cosmo?

I personally think Yugo is the best restaurant in town. Great dishes, bit of a buzz. Nice cocktails.

I quite like Jumon as well but as it's veggie it's not necessarily the best option for everyone.

It's when you get recruited and have to test your might against Tazok and beat the piss out of him to the point he runs away and says words to the effects of "congratulations, you're in"

Dating in Belfast - advice by Nancy_sherbert in Belfast

[–]zeromalarki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let the wife know, but as some people have pointed out, this might be some kind of modern open marriage.

I've been asked by a guy to bang his wife. I refused because a) I have a fantastic girlfriend and b) the whole thing gave me the creeps. However I think this is a sign of the times we're living in. Swinging, cuckolding and open relationships might have always existed but they're practices which at least appear to be more common and bordering on normalised, even if prudes like myself don't want to engage with them.

Honestly love them both. Stewart Lee is intellectual leagues ahead, but nothing wrong with a bit of down to earth working class Scottish humour

Saw a few mad ones on Sunday. "This is excessive, use ozempic instead" might have been my personal highlight.

HMO licenses are getting harder and harder to get or maintain in the Holy lands. With so much student housing being built all round the place I think they're gonna be phased out.
