I’ll probably regret starting this thread but go ahead and ask me, ask me anything. PS I’m not drunk right now.
How can you be Irish and not be drunk?
The same way Americans can be American and not be fat and/or stupid.
Does An Gadaí mean drunk Irishman?
Also, do you speak with two different accents? One that 'merkins can understand and the one that you speak to your compatriots. Bartenders in Ireland always seemed to do that, and I was thankful for it. Although they were probably bagging on me behind my back.
An Gadaí means The Thief in the Irish language aka Irish Gaelic.
I’ve been told I do speak in two different accents by my American girlfriend. I have one for my friends/family etc and another more “neutral” one for when I’m in America, or as is extremely common nowadays dealing with non-native English speakers in work.
who is this pornstar?
nws link.
Oh yeah Drunken Irishman would be Éireannach meisciúil or Fear Éireannach meisciúil.
The “Ask The Porn Connoisseur” thread is two doors down. I dunno who that is.
Who would win in a fight between A drunken Irishman and a drunken Scottsman?
pool, that’s a tough one. I’d guess it would be a draw. After a few shiners they’d be the best of pals forever and a day.
I’ve seen that up close. My drunken Scottish mate and his drunken Irish mate. Best of friends - until Celtic got one up Rangers, and my Scottish mate received a gloating SMS.
I’m not easily scared, but holy shit.
They’re still best of mates by the way - but not for a few days there…
Well, at what time are you actually going to be drunk (tell us the time zone), so that we can actually have a realistic discussion?
To be fair, I’ve known a number of Southerners and AAVE speakers to do the exact same thing.
Well, Rangers’ team song does include fantasies about being “knee deep in [Catholic] blood”.
Why aren’t you drunk right now?
Why do you like Guinness so much?
Why does everything in your stupid country close so early on weeknights?
Which is better: UCD or Trinity?
Is Guinness really better the closer you get to Dublin?
Also, what do you think of the Nigerian export stuff?
Am I your best mate?
Though I’m neither drunken nor Irish, I’ll hazard that the best Guinness I personally ever had was actually in Norn Iron, at a wee thatched stone pub with a turf fire on a hilltop - called the Crosskeys IIRC, somewhere in Co. Antrim.
The best Guinness in Dublin is usually said to be served in Mulligans of Poolbeg St. and it’s a damn fine pint.
The trick is that due to the swift turnover it’s unpasteurised in the RoI, and I presume it is in NI too. But to export elsewhere it has to be made “safe”.
The Nigerian stuff is revolting.
Why ask a drunk anything? Conversations with a drunk are seldom productive. Conversations between drunks can be hilarious, though.
Can I have your glass please?
Have you a home to go to?
Why not? There is a proverb saying something about drunk children always telling the truth, or somesuch…
