But it's night.

Dunnes Stores sells some damn fine coffee

Soul Caliber 2 is fine or if Poi and others want to join we can do Mario Party.

>Ruth Coppinger on abortion
>"We conducted a poll on support for repeal of the eight amendment which found a majority of Irish people support it"
>"...oh and it was conducted in Dublin West only"
Kek.

All the politicians are looking well dressed on the Tonight show this evening. All have their hair cut and Coppinger doesn't look like an old woman for a change.
Speaking of which has anyone else noticed Mary Lou dressing a bit more conservatively in the last week or two?

Jaggy, what do you think of Ruth Coppinger?

Haven't watched since Vinny, how are the new duo holding up?

Her heart is in the right place

Which Mario Party was the best? 6?

>Speaking of which has anyone else noticed Mary Lou dressing a bit more conservatively in the last week or two?
What do you mean? I thought she always a fairly smart dresser.

I played them all but 4 sticks out more to me since it was the one I played the most.

Hey lads. I’m about to board a plane and visit your country in a few minutes. I’m going with my sister and her boyfriend. She’s basically leading the whole trip, and she wants to go in a pub crawl like a complete tourist and especially drink at Temple Bar. I keep telling her that it’s over priced but she refuses to listen. I’m going to be hanging out with a friend from Ireland, he’s not from Dublin. Do any of you folk know where I can go and enjoy a night of drinking with lads that isn’t a complete tourist trap? I don’t want to be a sick cunt or take pictures and be gay. I just want to chill out with how people really live there.

Also what are some things you think I should look out for to try? I’m there for four days.

>how are the new duo holding up
I'm enjoying it so far. Following on from the Vincent trend of being leftie in outlook though.
Matt Cooper is very much a leftie, throws hard questions at the government and such but throws soft ones at those he likes so they can speak about their favourite subject for a bit. Eamon Dunphy was on a couple of night, the two adore each other.
Ivan was kind of in the back seat for the first week or two, I felt at least. Matt was always the one asking the questions and debating with the guests while Ivan kind of just sat there.
I might be a bit biased in my views though.

>Her heart is in the right place
Disagree desu.

>thought she always a fairly smart dresser
She always looked a bit "rough", so to speak.
Feel a bit sexist discussing the appearance of women in politics.

ivan is sound

>ivan is sound
I've never really heard him speak much before this show and I've only heard that he is a sort of George Hook type contrarian/right-leaning person?
He was getting a lot of stick from people on Twitter for his choice of jacket, as shown in the OP, and has since changed to a suit and tie outfit.

>stick
It's schtick.

hes centre right.

think he used to be a fine gael minister

It has been a day of long-posting on /éire/ today. Long-winded user would be proud.

>Feel a bit sexist discussing the appearance of women in politics.
Well, there's not a looker in the bunch anyway.

No, he was right in using "stick" in that case, I think. "Stick" in that context is slang, whereas "Shtick" means something else entirely.

Stop reminding me this flag isn't used anymore.

I thought schtick didn't fit too well but I assumed that's what he meant since I don't think I've heard stick used in that context before.

urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=stick

Definition 4. Mainly a British/Irish thing.

I suppose it works since it's similar in usage to "stick it to them".

>"stick" is a slang term used in south florida(miami for example) which is used to describe an ak- 47, but is also sometimes used to describe a big gun(automatic) such as an ar- 15 or m- 16.
Now how the hell is this the top definition?

>Now how the hell is this the top definition?
Yanks.

>not a looker in the bunch
Not in all of Irish politics or just between Mary Lou and Coppinger?

The former,

Lisa Chambers is alright. Seems like a good catch in most regards.

Night /éire/.

Goodnight.

Like clockwork.

>early
Well that's a first.

>Irish "men"

I am long-winded user and nothing in this thread or any other in the last week compare to my perspicacity.

>only one sentence
You've grown weak.

I have to engage my engagedness with an engaging engagery to engage in full engagedness.

Burnt my thumb around the top side of the knuckle and now it's healing the scar forms another wrinkle, it's very disconcerting, I was used to how my thumb looked before thus.

Think éire should play something that isn't CIV

What are you lot up to?

go drinking anywhere but Dublin
maybe go to the hill of Tara, there's a restaurant there and it's generally just a really nice place to be.

>sitting at my PC drinking my morning coffee
>alarm goes off because I forgot to switch it off
>nearly have a heart attack and jump out of my chair

I didn't like the restaurant there.
The Hill of Tara is really something special, though. I think it's better than Newgrange, though of course of Newgrange is more of a monument, it just isn't as evocative of the history.

IKTF

Bit early to drink but I'm doing it anyway.
Maybe it'll balance out the overdose of caffeine that's been bugging me for the last three days.

this post is very irish

Posting in /brit/ as we speak lad

Cold is even worse today

>Think éire should play something that isn't CIV
Like what?

>nearly have a heart attack and jump out of my chair
Cute!

Something more Co-op maybe if you lot are into that kind of stuff?

Do you want to finish the existing game?

I would feel bad if I took the joy of winning from Poi so I will finish it

Going back to sleep.

We still have Rocket League and OJ and a large chunk of the GameCube's library if we can set up this Dolphin netplay.

Battlefront II? That's the only shooter I have on PC, I do have Chivalry as well though if anyone else owns it.
Also do you Splatoon 2? I'm getting a Switch soon so we can add eachother on that.

I'm after getting up from a 5 hour nap desu. Before my sleep schedule was just bad, now I don't know what the fuck it's doing.

My right eye's been twitching on and off, even after I woke up.

means you're not getting enough sleep

I've got Splatoon yes and Chivalry aswell
Left 4 Dead might be an alternative seen as it's almost a sin not to own it

>I've got Splatoon yes
Noice. Once I get it we'll swap friend codes or however online works on the Switch.

>and Chivalry aswell
I must warn you though that I'm fairly awful at it.

>it's almost a sin not to own it
Oh dear I better say some Hail Mary's then.

Are /éire/'s parents religious?
My father stopped going to mass when he was 16/17 and since then only entered a church again for weddings/christenings/communions/confirmations/etc. Apparently my granny threw his dinner out to the dog the night he said he wasn't going to mass anymore.

>sake
I hope you're serving it from a traditional flask and cup. Been meaning to try it myself sometime, I've heard it tastes a bit like white wine.

>I hope you're serving it from a traditional flask and cup
>not drinking from one of the ceremonial pint glasses your family "acquired" from the pubs decades ago

>I hope you're serving it from a traditional flask and cup.
Shall be enjoying it in a similar fashion as knackers enjoy their cider, that is wearing a tracksuit on the parking lot of the local Cactus
Not really, they let us figure out all that religious stuff by ourselves and not influence
us but my grandparents weren't very religious either, I mean they are all Catholics, believe in God etc but they don't really go to mass.

Yes, considerably so. Although they've never forced it on me outside of telling me to be quiet during the angelus bongs. They were quite understanding when I told them I didn't want to go to mass anymore and thankfully didn't do like your granny.

Don't forget the paper bag.

>on the parking lot of the local Cactus
Is Cactus a convenience store like Spar or a bigger supermarket?

>the local Cactus
I choose to interpret this as Luxembourg having a minority of native Americans who require cacti for religious purposes.

>Apparently my granny threw his dinner out to the dog the night he said he wasn't going to mass anymore.
She did the right thing. I would have done the same.

Bit wet outside lads.

Cactus markets come in all shapes and sizes but most of them are more like super/hypermarkets

We famously used cacti-kamikaze attacks to fight off the French during the 30 years war

Hilarious.

Not really. The world needs more people like your Granny.

>world needs more religiously intolerant people

Atheism isn't a religion, so your grandmother wasn't being religiously intolerant with regard to your father.

>outside of telling me to be quiet during the angelus bongs
While I don't pray I do find the Angelus very calming. I hope RTÉ doesn't get rid of them. That and I much prefer the sound of Six One News to Six O'Clock News.

>thankfully didn't do like your granny
To be fair her and my dad had a somewhat strained relationship at the time for other reasons, the granny I knew was very understanding and not strict in the slightest. Grandad died only a few months or so beforehand, since he wasn't around anymore granny made my dad do most of the farmwork in his place. While the work needed to be done he was just a regular teenager who wanted to hang around with friends at the pitch and whatnot so he started to resent her for it, having to deal with secondary school all the while probably didn't help much either. To make matters worse, in this short span of time all five of his older sisters moved out and left him alone with granny.
I didn't know about any of this until the last year or so but it's really changed my perspective of him. All of that must've been quite hard to go through at such an age.

It's a good thing my mother didn't care nearly as much as making me go, personally I stopped going to mass when I was a child after it interfered with something I wanted to watch on telly. Since then I only went properly again (as in excluding Christmas and special occasions) in the weeks coming up to the Communion because the priest would be paying attention.

She was a great woman but that's not my post you're replying to.

My mother is, dad doesn't go except when he wants to, and talks about it as "good to have something for muh inner needs/society, etc".
I'm the type of person who doesn't put in the effort for proper observance and lacks true piety but has no problem with it on a theological as opposed to emotional level. Laziness and apathy desu.

>find the Angelus very calming
I find the sound to be a bit sharp and loud. They should try a different bell.

Storm Dobbo is on its way

Sick and fucking tired of smug Pro-Choice people.

Comments in an article or what?

Yeah. Also, abortion came up during a lunchtime conversation at work recently.

One day their cause for smugness will evaporate and they will wonder what is left of themselves after their sunk costs of Social Cause™ brown-nosing have returned nothing.

I hope they lose the referendum by the slimmest of margins.

>partaking in lunchtime conversations
>socialising with your coworkers
I have vastly overestimated you.

It's not a common occurrence, I assure you. But sometimes we just move straight from a meeting to having lunch, so I sorta just get swept along.

I hope they lose it by a thicc enough margin to make a re-run impossible but slim enough that those un-self-aware radicals who were heavily invested in murdering Irish children will still bitch about it like it's as "urgent" as their rhetoric claims it to be. Butthurt should replace triumphalism, not silence. (Though if everything fizzles out after a defeat, it would be indicative of how astroturfed by (((foreign influence))) this murderous campaign is.)

>hope they lose the referendum by the slimmest of margins
That'll mean in another few years they will be over the line. I hope they get hammered out the gap.

>not having the banter with your male coworkers

>pro-abortion males

>a thicc enough margin
I don't think that word means what you think it means. Pic related.

No excuses. You have failed us.

>working in a place that would have pro-abortion males

>tfw every Pro-Abortion male I see on TV fits the stereotype perfectly

>come into work every morning
>see a load of "save the eight" and "love both" bumper stickers
>not a repeal sticker in sight
Feels good.

>every Pro-Abortion male I see on TV fits the stereotype
Ivan Yates and Matt Cooper fit the stereotype?

>reverse search
>it's a completely different girl from who I thought it was.

Admittedly I was mainly thinking of sub-35 males. Men supportive of abortion become increasingly rare above that age. Two TV personalities from Dublin are hardly representative of the average man their age.

A pro-abortion male is the type who would want his offspring dead and who expects the mother would want it to be.

You've been expecting that hoor form the literature club?

Not him, but definitely.

It did look like her.

>Two TV personalities from Dublin
They are from Wexford and Cork respectively?

Every TV personality is from Dublin except Daithí number 6

Pretty much this: Once you go Dublin, you never go back - especially if you end up working in the media.

I wonder if the surname Ó'Sé has anything to do with the fact that every Kerryman looks exactly the same.
