      I know they might seem like a grand romantic gesture, but it’s coercive, forcing the woman into to giving a positive response.

        Is there anything that you would not twist into being an example of coercive acts by men against de wimmin?

            It reallly is a hefty amount of peer pressure if totally misguided but that video above is the hilarious and brutally funny outcome if you get it wrong.

            Why so many people still get obsessed with the idea of marriage and the public and mostly vulgar exhibitionism is something I find strange and getting a bit dated apart from tax and visa reasons etc.

            Find a friend and do whatever is best for everyone but fair enough, each to their own at the same time…

        it’s true, my first engagement was very public and that was naive and unfair of me.

        the current Mrs Molloy told me she’d kill me if I attempted that

    Look at me! look at me look at me! This kind of oversharing is depressing.
    Public marriage proposals like this, are a symptom of a needy, vacuous cohort of people. I worry for the future of these clowns.
    Or
    I could just bit a be a git completely out of step.
    Why not just be happy for them?
    maybe it’s me not them

      When I woke up this morning I was not expecting to encounter a moment of pathos from Andrew. S’okay, Andrew, we all feel alienated from the world around us sometimes.

      to be fair I’ve just had to turn off the radio there where the minister for nice folks from Ranelagh has been outlining more horsesht plans & ideas for lining the pockets..er sorry…solving the housing crisis so it might have been that actually come to think of it

      1. Martco

        I think it was the bit where he discussed how young people working in technology companies will be able to pretend that they’re in Friends living the like shared lifestyle or some such bllx that made it come up. had a coffee settler now tho so grand again. not a great start to the working week tho. Oh and best of luck to the lads there getting married n all hope the emigration goes well or friends lifestyle or whatever I just don’t etc.

    I think we all feel like the guy in the black hat in the very bottom right around 50 seconds – 1min in.

    Just not giving a funk…
