Had to re-post this, it made me all kinds of happy. Thanks Fimbis
IRELAND - HOME SWEET HOME.
The only place where........
- When you were young, you went to bed when Glenroe was over,
- If you die from alcohol poisoning, you're considered a lightweight,
- 'Fuck off' means 'Are you serious?', ... ...
- The person that you insult most is probably your best friend, ...
- Saying 'I will yea' means that you definitely won't,
- "Fuck it, its grand' means that you couldn't be bother finish it properly,
- 'Hes fond of a drink' means he suffers from severe life-threatening alcoholism,
- Saying you're going for a drink means you might not be seen again for 3 days,
- Crisps are called 'Taytos' and fizzy drinks are called 'minerals',
- 'For the craic' is the best reason for doing anything,
- The best cure for a hangover is more drink,
- Nobody can go a day without saying 'Jaysus',
- 'Meeting' has a double meaning,
- Tea is the solution to every problem,
- And water is the solution to every GAA injury,
- "I got stuck behind a tractor' is a perfectly valid reason for being late,
- We eat Tayto sambos for lunch, and ham sandwiches on the way to Croke Park,
- You can insert the name of a gardening tool into any sentence and it still makes sense, e.g. 'I had a rake of drink last night' or "I'll be out in a minute, I'm just shoveling down the dinner',
- GAA is considered religion,
- Its perfectly acceptable to call your mother 'mammy' even though you are a fully grown adult,
- Saying 'Now we're sucking diesel' means that you are happy with the outcome of the situation,
- Drinking 'tae' is everyone's favourite past time,
- You're scared of the wooden spoon,
- The word 'like' goes in every sentence,
- You can say "Any craic' to a garda and you won't get arrested,
- 'The dogs' bollocks' means something is brilliant!!

and being late cause 2 people driving past each other stop in the middle of the road to have a chat.
no-one batting an eye at the partially blind 70yr old guy going 4 miles on his scooter to the bar getting shit faced and then riding it home every night.
and in south ireland as a kid you can go to anyones house if you're bored and they'll make you some sandwiches and give you a drink
