Good. If Ireland went to number 1 after the England game then Scotland would be sure to beat us in the next game at Murrayfield.

Ireland are at home to England in the first round of 6 Nations games. How many ranking points would a victory there give them? edit: not enough. +0.54, according to this website http://irbrankingcalculator.azurewebsites.net/ edit 2: even a very unlikely 15 point victory would only net +0.81 ranking ...

There was a point a week or so ago when I was reading some contributions by the poster Santa when it hit me that the mental image I had rushed to create of him did not fit with the intelligence and thoughtfulness displayed in what he had posted. This doesn't mean that I agree with all of his conclus...

I dunno what your definition of "alcoholic" is, but if doesn't include drinking 12 beers and few glasses of wine every day and working through hangovers then I reckon you're being pretty forgiving as to what constitutes a "real alcoholic". I'm not sure how it's even possible to drink that much if h...

I can't shake the feeling that perhaps there were a few more pages to the article linked above that I missed.

A bit of a tangent and apologies if this is an ignorant question- If some religious orders are dying out, is there any possibility that Catholic lands and property accumulated within Ireland could pass to foreign ownership in the future? More likely to go to lay trusts I would think :thumbup: I had...

It seems to be almost impossible to estimate how a goalkeeper will perform for a big club in big games before you sign him and test him mentally. Chicken and egg, which comes first to a club, the great manager or the great goalkeeper? Surely performing in big games for a previous club would be a fa...

Ban kiddy-fiddlers becoming priests would be popular.

Are Irish people still becoming priests?

Sorry brodudemate.. I was just staring at another post where some crazed loon is saying 56 years is old... I'm... I'm 57 in two weeks man.

Nothing hurts more than when you try to be a bit silly and the other poster logs off in pity. Be grateful that you don't know this pain, lurkers.

Another word for that is 'accommodated'.

Not ignored.

I thought it was pretty much accepted that Americans adopted their general Halloween of dressing up and going from door-to-door from the Scottish and Irish immigrants. I would say that, though.

Tschussie

Cultural appropriation can be a thing. A funny example is the American appropriation of Ugg boots, which then made them far more popular in Australia. Meanwhile, an American company, Ugg Australia TM, sued traditional Ugg boot manufacturers in Australia over their use of the word Ugg, which they ha...

What's interesting is just how much the German Antifa groups have appropriated neo-Nazi motifs and symbols, especially the fetishisation of violence. I went to an Antifa bar recently, and they had lots of posters for concerts etc. The band names were mostly things like "Punch in the face" and "Meet...

Tschussie

As mentioned by Tschussie, the same appropriation of symbols has happened in other locations. Which is what those Swedes were most likely trying to tell you. I cannot speak for Sweden but in Ireland any connection that the Celtic Cross may have to white supremacy in other parts of the world is not ...

It's all about the face detection, surely? Who would give a fudge otherwise? Once concerns are flagged by one of their users, couldn't Facebook just use the existing profile photos to scan for revenge porn? Tattoos can identify a person even if their face isn't in frame. Good point. These Facebook ...

Yeah, accusations of cultural appropriation feel to me like a child in the midst of a tantrum counter-productively smashing their own toys. That's a bit unfair. I don't have much truck with it as a concept but there is occasionally a point and some substance to the criticism. For indigenes, for exa...

The podcast mentioned that state-sponsored experimentation was conducted on some aboriginal children. For example, in one school in the 1940s/50s children were denied food to study the effects of malnutrition and starvation.

I recently listened to a Canadian podcast series which touched upon these residential schools. A judge was quoted as calling them ≈ "nothing more than institutionalised paedophilia". It struck me as bearing eerie similarities to Catholic Church-run schools/homes/laundries* in Ireland. * the podcast ...

Can someone explain to a dumb fudge like me, who hasn't read the manual, what the meaning behind his witches & dragons quote is? He's referring to Jungian archetypes, which are drawn from myth and narrative, in a long tradition which goes well beyond Jung. He's suggesting that even if the concrete ...

From first angle I was sure he was short but it looked a clear try in that last replay before the decision.
