See the brickwork in front of the Stephens Green archway. See it. Smell it. It’s gross.

We pissed everywhere and anywhere. We’d all prefer to piss in toilets but the government have ensured no such basic facilities are available. They can be blamed for the smell of stale piss in every city centre laneway at present.

there’s ONE public bog outside Stephens Green S.C. and the queue is miles long. The council won’t put port-a-loos about the city because they think it encourages public drinking. It’s the most narrow minded, and typically DCC way of thinking. Zero creativity at all amongst their ranks. People will still drink publicly, always will, the only difference is where the pee goes. The DCC seem to think holding it inside your body until you get home is plausible and fine.

That’s it…shaking off our diligence to ‘rules’ and will be taking away some serious pints next weekend.

Yeah, you’re not skipping the vaccine queue.

The Covid paparazzi are out again.

Why are people so ecstatic about paying 6 euro for a pint of lager so they can sit on a bench with it when they can buy a can of the same lager for 2 euro and sit on a bench with it? Is it the plastic cup? That can also be arranged.
All the price lists I’ve seen are listed above the “normal times” prices which seems crazy given the lower operating costs given they’re selling pints out of a doorway now. The point is, why are all pints 6 now when they would have been about 5 last year? Inflation isn’t that high.

It was a novelty for a while especially when in a pint glass but many have copped on now and are just getting cans.
Future for a lot of people will be more cans/wine in friends houses and the odd treat day to the pub. Doubt people will return to the pubs in the same numbers after realising how much they were spending

I’m thinking the same thing, at least that’ll be more indicative of my behavior going forward. Pub once-in-a-while for a bit of chat and craic, but none of us can afford to go to the pub like we used to, especially if they’re going to jack up the rates to make up for the revenue they lost last year.
George
None of us? Lots of people have saved a lot of money in the last year without any reduction of earnings.

My already high salary rose 15% this year. There are winners and losers in the New economy. I’ll be back in pubs as a regular as soon as they open..

“My already high salary”. I love this! Proper lol territory. Sure, aren’t you only a hop, skip and jump away from UN Secretary General E’Matty!
A bit like GiggidyGoo describing their oeuvre as “complex logistics”.
Thank you (both) for the mirth!

Those awful, awful mom jeans young women are wearing these days. Sheesh.

those types of high-waisted trousers haven’t looked good on anyone for decades (did they even look good back then?) but being young is the time to make these mistakes. More power to them.
Dr.Fart
yea I hate them. they also seem to all be wearing Jerry Seinfeld runners too. I’m ok with not being hip if that’s what it means.

The urban trendies are so untrendy with their attire and plastic containers.
Dr.Fart
