Are Irish pensions millions of Euros or something? How long did they think they could keep that scheme going?

Wasn't there a film with some sort of Irish scam like that about 20-30 years ago? Now I shall have to google instead of getting on with the housework.

There's an extremely nice gaming YouTuber called Micky D with a thick Irish accent and he also pronounces film with two syllables. He's played a lot of licensed movie games, so it comes up a lot. I recommend him.

They genuinely are really musically talented, like the instrumentals would make actual really solid songs and then they just decide to make elder scrolls shitposts with them instead, it's great. Except the lyrics are also really funny and well written.

I’m half English half Irish and had a mother who would never allow me to pronounce Film with two syllables. I’m generally of the Irish side of things but I will never accept “yo-gurt”. It is “yog-urt”

A few years ago some American family friends came to visit, after having travelled around a bunch of the UK already. They kept referring to Bath, as in the town, with what they considered the correct pronunciation, being as they’d heard, “baahth”, but in an extremely tortured American accent. I had to explain to them that the town is named after the baths there, and they should just pronounce it however they would say “bath”.

Nobody should pronounce it baaarth on the principle that that is a terrible way to say bath.

https://twitter.com/jamiesmart/status/1484574028459384833 TBF this is how I think people should react to anyone wearing a top hat now. At best they're a magician (or, as Sam Delaney calls them, a hand-liar), and at worst they're an Etonian. (It's possible there might be an Etonian magician out there and if so I hope to plummet from a cliff while locked in battle with them)

Btw if anyone is still denying Trump is demented, go look up any of his call-in guest spots on that one American talk show. Was it Letterman? He used to be able to sound coherent and intelligent. Man's brain is melting out of his ears.

Rory Stewart is on the brink of going full Jokerquote:Boris Johnson is a terrible prime minister and a worse human being[...] Yet, knowing this, the majority of Conservative MPs, and party members, still voted for him to be prime minister. He is not, therefore, an aberration, but a product of a system that will continue to produce terrible politicians long after he is gone. So what shall we do Rory? https://www.ft.com/content/dec2e1ed-d827-41de-a827-b9d7fbf06fd0

Rory's a strange one: he's smart enough to see that our system is flawed and he has this sense of honour that means he feels like he should be doing something about it, but at the same time he's always been part of that system and can't quite bring himself to let go of it.

Trying to apply for a UK passport for my newborn and lmao this is some bullshit they make you jump through. Apart from the usual documents and photos they require somebody (not family) to verify the child's identity. That person must be a UK national and live in the UK - somewhat tricky for us, as many of our friends are EU nationals, but fair enough. But they also must be employed in an approved profession, and the list looks like it was last updated in the 1960s: https://www.gov.uk/confirm-identity-online-for-passport-application Might as well just put up a sign saying 'no poors and foreigners please'
