@mattparlmer Policeman 1: “OK, OK, get out of here lads. That’s enough airport buildin’ for this lifetime.” Policeman 2: “Sir, that’s a priest in charge.” Policeman 1: Oh! Carry on then. That’s pretty bad*ss.”

i'm ireland pilled now

Irish people are a true example of antifragility. Despite being mistreated by the English government throughout history, they have not only survived but have grown stronger, and they continue to thrive today.

Ah yes the good old days when priests and sketchy politicians were running Ireland.

It's a tragedy that Ireland lost its identity faster under hom rule, than under the hundreds of years in the British Empire.

Best thing I have seen on the internet in a long time

The Irish half of my blood feels so damn proud of this 🤣

“There came the priest from Partry, Father Horan was his name. And since he's been appointed Knock has never been the same. "B'God" says Jem, "'tis eighty years since Mary was about". 'Tis time for another miracle." and he blew the candle out.”

Back then there was hope. There was a reason to build towards the future. Now it all feels hopeless, the airport would be blocked by the government and reused as a refugee center to invite the enemy into the country. It is about that.
