No one's a god damn saint, I hate when people say that.

They can just storm his building and throw spaghetti and pizza at it.

Manco 02-28-2011 01:02 AM

But pastafistic protests generally don't end well.

sorry

abe is now! 02-28-2011 11:47 AM

I'll assume he means Libyans fleeing the crisis, there's just a little sea between them and Italy.

Berlyboy? Hahaha.

BTW, when are the riots in Italy going to start to get rid of their dictator?

Turin's full of foreign. We don't need other arabs and we don't want other arabs. I'm not a racist, I'm tired of seeing them doing the f**k they want!

Ridg3 02-28-2011 01:13 PM

Is there no freedom in Italy?

Dixanadu 02-28-2011 03:23 PM

I don't mind foreigners as long as they can speak perfect English.

A village five minutes from here has about 500 Chinese living in it.

Just about every window fitter is Polish here, "A window in house. Do want?"

Gaw dam

I agree, problem is, that's damn racist now isn't it. That's not an argument I'l get into.

The other day, a foregin bloke, Polish or Russian I'm not sure, tried to scam my Mum by saying he was from our gas company...a company my Mum never even heard of. She basically told him to get lose and he actually tried to impose and get inside. I was ready at the door if he did force in but my Mum threatened to call the police and the bastard scarpered. I suppose a good thing too because my bat's upstairs in my room.

We get those all the time. What they do they say their from "the gas company" and ask to see your bills to "see if your getting the best deal".

As their obviously from a competitor they'll say that they will give you 10% less if you sign up with them.

Admittedly most of those door-to-door people are Indian. Apparently there's only so many jobs that involve annoying people over the phone.

STM 03-01-2011 12:09 AM

Thing is there's a ton of oldies down my road who might be worried by this. Thinking they're paying two bills or something.

Dixanadu 03-01-2011 06:16 AM

Last time I called the o2 network for top up awards, the guy was Indian. Couldn't understand a damn word he was saying.

Really? Wow.

How many people with English as their primary language can speak perfect English?

Many. Many, many, many.

STM 03-02-2011 03:17 AM

Even intelligible English would be nice. The guy who makes my favourite chips is a Polish bloke with a lisp. Nice bloke but makes for awkward conversation. Especially since once apparently he asked if I was rich ordering so many chips for my friends (hahahahaha) and I said yep! Oh boy I hope he forgot that one.

Like Nate said, many.

For a country like mine that slaughters the English language with terrible sounding dialects.

English class is serious business here.

STM 03-02-2011 07:03 AM

Learn Irish Gaelic then, it's a more lyrical language! Tá a fhioos agam ar an bhfeirm beagán ó mo chol ceathracha, a fhios ag daoinee is mó gaeilge an chéad, an dara Béarla. But as an Irishman will note, my spelling and fragmentation is apparent.

Dixanadu 03-02-2011 09:36 AM

Éist do bhéal.

That's all I know.

STM 03-02-2011 10:49 AM

Then your not trying hard enough to be Irish ;)

But who tells you to shut your mouth? You gotta tell em 'léim amach na Boirne.'

Ridg3 03-02-2011 11:12 AM

I'm more Irish than the pair of you and I can proudly say that I don't understand what the fuck you are saying.

Indeed Dixy old boy indeed.

Ridg3, your not trying hard enough either, it's just not cool if your not trying.

Dixanadu 03-03-2011 04:13 AM

If he does, people will think he's with the IRA.

Everyone up here are so paranoid.

STM 03-03-2011 06:37 AM

I had family in the IRA apparently pre-1914 and when it was/ there was the Irish Brotherhood.

Dixy just tell your country to go join with the south so we English don't have to front you being part of us in taxes. If your still British, your not trying hard enough. XD

Dixanadu 03-03-2011 07:12 AM

But we're a province of Britain, it'll take more than folk anti-British songs to secure independence.

I'm not bothered by it, because then I won't get BT anymore, I'll be stuck with Eirécom or some shitty service provider that promises lag heaven.

Oh, and have you ever watched the RTE or TG4 channels? They're fucking crap. I WANT MY BBC PROGRAMS

STM 03-03-2011 07:16 AM

You can get BBC in Ireland, we get it right down in Bodyke and Co. Claire

Dixanadu 03-03-2011 12:33 PM

When I went to the Republic, we had no TV.

Only DVD players, wine, women and song.

Good times.

STM 03-04-2011 08:42 AM

Indeed, wine, women, song and Somalians.

Dixanadu 03-04-2011 08:54 AM

ONE CANNOT SIMPLY PIRATE THEIR WAY INTO SOMALIA

STM 03-04-2011 09:29 AM

YET ONE MAY PIRATE THEIR WAY OUT OF IT!

Dixanadu 03-04-2011 11:26 AM

They're not what I expected of pirates.

STM 03-04-2011 11:47 AM

I seen one with an eye patch but I was disgusted to find him lacking in the peg leg department!
