RE: Guess What Is In The Box....

I'll chance saying Love.....we can't open the box though because it will escape.....as happens very easily.....

RE: Why do relationships go pearshaped !

...Hi Anna....Yes definitely the only reason and we all know that... being honest....what else matters at the end of the day....

RE: Why do relationships go pearshaped !

...Hi John....hope apl well in London?.....long time no see....Very simple answer really that I think we should all know by this stage.. lol....either they don't fancy the pants off us or we don't fancy the pants off them.....trying to force ourselves to see things we like never works.....very simple really....it's either hard work trying or it isn't... jmo.....

RE: Meghan Merkle

.....Nothing more boring in this world than somebody laughing at their own self conceived jokes......you are the essence of it around here......

RE: Meghan Merkle

..Welll....being honest....If I was looking for a fella to chat with....Pedro always comes across as a nice person......perhaps a little bit of tweeking in your own posts......and without those nauseating childish laughing emojis....might serve yourself better.....

RE: Meghan Merkle

No they haven't Molly.......just recovering from my sister's wedding in Wicklow last weekend so a bit tired and just having a read....... Bit tired so I might be too honest with my comments....lol...

RE: AGE GAP

.....Well.....just a personal opinion....somebody either loves somebody or not......it's not like anybody can stop themselves aging......of course everyone would like to stay young and beautiful.... but that doesn't happen.....I know of a lot of younger, beautiful people and they are not happy either....sometimes people who are lovely and young end up being totally self centred and will use their partner for as much as they can get from them....look at all the beautiful film stars etc.....has been young and beautiful made them happy?.. No I don't think so.....anyway....best of luck to everyone on here who has found love.....

RE: What emojis irritate you the most?

.....Thanks Molly.....just having a peep.....pity Irish Forums are dead.....whatever they say about us at least we were always able to have a bit of banter.....anyway....your words never need many emojis to enhance them.....hope all good in Cork.....

RE: What emojis irritate you the most?

....Hi Molly....yes I agree with you....it is a well known fact that good comedians never laugh at their own jokes....personally I find most of emogis used here by grown adults as really childish....the odd term of endearment or a smile is nice.....but the overuse of other ones, to me anyway, does not do the poster any favours as regards proving their wit or maturity......people's words to me show more of their degree of intelligence or emotional maturity.....just my opinion....

RE: Are happy people to be trusted.

....My opinion would be that happy people can be trusted as much as people who always appear sad and grumpy......maybe trusted is the wrong word......There are two ends to the scale......I find overly happy, smiley people extremely annoying and boring......I could never stand that in a partner or anybody I would have daily contact with......I also cannot stand grumpy, sad people who see the bad in everything and their entire life revolves around blaming others for the way their life has turned out....so, for me, I like people who don't put on an act as regards their life being one big bundle of joy.......no nauseating continuous smile or no continuous grumpy face......just be our imperfect selves and, hopefully, we won't piss too many people off....

RE: Is it right to judge someone negatively when no facts are present?

...oh my goodness Molly......lol.......I saw on the news that the weather is going to be terrible for next few days.....not to worry....we can batton down the hatches.....put on a nice fire and watch something good on netflix.......that is if we are staying at home for weekend with or without people that we enjoy being with!.... lol.....just wondering.... has anybody seen the series ' Mr.Mercedes'?..... It's a very good drama with Brendan Gleeson ( Irish Actor)?.....apologies op for hijacking your thread......

RE: Is it right to judge someone negatively when no facts are present?

.....Hi Riz.....hope all good in your part of the world..... anyway, as regards getting banned by this particular poster....lol.....As somebody who only logs in from time to time......I always completely agree with your intelligent, honest opinions.....I was banned from that thread by her also.......then again, I am used to that for the past while......doesn't bother me in the least.....whether she is a 'paid per view' bigot......or making up ' an imaginary personal life' that some harmless people choose to believe......it is entirely up to CS members on the blogs or forums what they believe.....

RE: Let it go!!!!....

....Well if that had happened to me it would have been at the time it happened that I would have swiftly walked away from both this so called 'good friend' and a two- timing boyfriend......both would be given the complete silent treatment from there on in no matter how they tried to apologise.......I'm sure I'd like my job wasting my energy pretending to be friends with her......I'd definitely think that, over the course of ten year's, some more trustworthy boyfriends and girlfriends would have come into my life and I wouldn't have wasted one minute of my time giving her or him a second thought.....

RE: Unconditional love!

.....Ah sure Dee dee.... at least we won the All ireland.....lol....no hard feelings and just giving my opinion on the way things work around here.....anyway.....hope all good in Limerick..... Pouring from the heavens here....wish you the best......

RE: Unconditional love!

......well Dee dee......my opinion is that I have seen lots of threads on here in which people ask opinions on different subjects......I see absolutely nothing wrong with the OP s thread......I have actually seen a completeb ack of understanding when he writes threads that are, obviously, just humorous....... and a lot of yee cannot see through that.....anyway.... he cannot win.......so even with a serious thread......he is still thought bad of.....I understand that you are only new here but a little research on who the real nasty people on here are might be a good idea.......jmo and wish you the best....

RE: Unconditional love!

.......Definitely different scenarios I think......(apart from their personal life) revolves around their children because they are 50/50 part of both of them.......as the saying goes 'a parent's happiness depends, at any given time, on the happiness of their saddest child'....... As regards adults......up to ourselves to know that the person we are with will also be there when difficult situations arise.....a different type of love........jmo

Well done Facebook Ireland Headquarters.....

...That's what I'm asking!.... Has anybody seen any changes in the companies they are working in or is this change in the Facebook Company a new beginning for the future?.....

Well done Facebook Ireland Headquarters.....

....Yes indeed Ali......that is the way it is almost everywhere we go......but.....when the likes of 'Facebook' are bringing in changes it will not be long until others will follow.......anyway.....we will have to wait and see what happens in the future....

Well done Facebook Ireland Headquarters.....

correction......that YOU... have visited.....

Well done Facebook Ireland Headquarters.....

We were all down home at Mam's over the weekend.....per usual lots of chat and laughter.....but, anyway, one of my sister's, who lives in Dublin was telling us an interesting thing that happened last week.....she runs her own Company supplying feminine hygiene products to large companies all over Ireland for past fifteen year's or so......she told us about a phonecall she got from one of her customers.....Facebook Ireland's Headquarters in Dublin.....herself and the woman in charge of housekeeping etc in Facebook know each other well for years but the other lady asked Carmel " if she was sitting down as she had an unusual request".... She asked her if she would arrange to install feminine units in 62 of the men's toilets in the Facebook building.....anyway my sister, just joking, asked her to repeat what she said.....and she had heard correctly.....seemingly there are two transgender people amongst the 1,500 employees in Facebook Ireland Headquarters and the male toilets are being adjusted accordingly........my sister, of course, is delighted with the extra business......all she said was....'roll on all her other large customers to follow suit!... lol......we did have a bit of a laugh at the way she told the story.....but, you would have to hear her telling it to appreciate......anyway.....just wondering has anybody else here, from other countries etc. seen any changes in the male bathroom facilities in any places they have visited.....

RE: Men, we don't want your money!

......Lots of things have changed in Society over the past 50 year's or so but none more so than the role of women in the family......the days are gone when women were expected to get married quite young and in most cases have a large number of children without recourse to proper contraception and most accepted this as their main role in life.....with the advances in contraception, educational opportunities and, consequently, employment opportunities the marriage age of young women increased and they started to realise that their self worth and development did not have to totally revolve around being full-time housewives.....from then on, in most cases, both mothers and fathers started to take on responsibilities on a more equal footing.....smaller families became the norm and parents realised that by having fewer children as well as both working they could provide better chances of proper educational opportunities etc. for their kids.....sending them on to third level etc.....so basically those are the reasons for the changes in the gender roles......equal opportunities (in theory anyway.....albeit still a bit questionable at times!!..).....jmo...

RE: Is love possible on the Internet

......I can rest assure you that I am EXACTLY who I say I am on this site......I have met lots of people off this site in person and it makes absolutely no difference to me that you are now trying to make people on here believe that I am not who I say I am.......and one thing I have never, ever done.....as you are doing here.... is divulge anything on these forums about conversations I had with anybody I met or chatted with on here......everybody can only hear your side of the story of your communication with this man in which you are doing your best to destroy his good name......I would hazard a guess that his side of the story would be slightly different as to me you are coming across as a woman scorned who is out to get her own back in the lowest possible manner.....

RE: misogynistic comments...

....lol.....don't you be playing the innocent with me!........yer here long enough to know.....he has LOTS of friends here and he doesn't mind being called by his real name......

RE: misogynistic comments...

........Have you Sir ever heard of the saying "If you want to know somebody just look at who their friends are"?.......You can be rest assured that John has more friends around here than you will ever have......both male and female.......all the nice, friendly, funny people around here interact with him the whole time and never have a bad word to say about him......If the occasion arises when some people set out to rile him and he responds to them in a certain way......he is always, in my view, correct about those people......most of whom are more than capable to be snipier and nastier than John will ever be and they definitely do not need a thread set up by you in their honour to defend them........

RE: Britons may lose their right to live in another EU country

.....So is your adoration for Mr Trump lessening?..... I thought he was going to save yee all?.... How awful for yee that he might fail.....3% of Americans are Muslims......so the rest of the 320 million of yee cannot stop being caliphated?..... Perhaps when yeer poster boy was securing a $350 billion arms deal over the next ten years from the Saudis he did a war dance with a couple of weeks ago........perhaps tell him to stay at home and defend yee from the 3% of Muslim people who are going to caliphate yee all??......Try living in some of the countries where that 350 billion worth of arms are going to be used or dropped upon......try and live as those unfortunates do......their children are not playing with toy soldiers and fighter aeroplanes as Mr Trump's son does in Malalargo, the White house or the top of Trump Tower......

RE: Britons may lose their right to live in another EU country

.....Just out of curiosity.... You say that you have lived in several European countries......in your next sentence you state that it is only fair that all non English people are expelled from the UK?.....so, you can choose to live where you like and other's can't?..... I am sure you will retaliate with the answer that all foreigners living in the UK are spongers?....that is a total exaggeration.....the majority of foreigners living in the UK, or Ireland for that matter, are hard working, honest people.....Once again, you and your ilk brand entire groups of people with the same brush just because of the actions of a small minority.....

RE: WHY are you still SINGLE???!!!

....Does the person that you wrote two blogs about on the 5th and 11th of July know this....I'm sure you remember?...... you know.......the one you have been in a three year relationship with?......when I said you we're making up a story and was told that I was talking rubbish and not showing empathy?..... Go back and delete what you said if you want to......

RE: weight loss

.....Just a small opinion on your thread......I've never actually heard about organic vinegar helping with loosing weight....that is if you mean the ordinary stuff people put on chips?......I do have a great belief in Apple Cider Vinegar though......my sister....who works as a nutritionist in a hospital in Dublin has been tormenting us for years as to its benefits.....so we follow her advice and have a little of it diluted every day.......anyway, just as regards people being overweight in general.....my opinion is that, since I was much younger even going back to being a child in rural Ireland.......In those days people only had the choice of going to small rural shops with a very limited amount of products available.....nowadays there are three or four different food chains available in every town in the country......We all go in there with the expectation of buying stuff for dinners for the next few days.....What happens then?.... A load of useless, non nutritive things are all over the bloomin place......we end up buying things that we could well live without.....so what happens is that a couple of days later we look in our fridges or cupboards and wonder what we spent our money on......In my opinion we should all concentrate on just buying a few bits of healthy, nutritious meat, vegs, fruit and things like that......but, of course, most of us don't do that in these massive supermarkets that we frequent....we end up going home with a lot of stuff that is of no use to us nutritionally..... Maybe it's just me but.....looking at a lot of ingredients in our trollies.....we could definitely live healthier lives without 90% of it.....jmo....hope I haven't hijacked your thread....... didn't mean to.....

RE: Favourite kind of sausage !

Well.....just from reading all the differnt posts about sausages and black pudding.....brought back a lot of memories from when I was growing up.....I never remember any types of meat being bought.... Maybe we were very primitive but everything we ate was produced at home.......My mother was an exceptional cook....and still is.....and I do remember pigs being slaughtered for pork and bacon.......we took it for granted at the time but, just as black pudding has been mentioned here.....I have never tasted anything as delicious as the black pudding she used to make.....I know the ingredients sound gross to a lot of people now but it did contain pig's blood, fatty pork, lots of oatmeal, white onion......( cannot remember the other ingredients!)......but I do remember the barrell it was all mixed up in......also, just to gross people out another little bit!... lol.....as far as I know it was wrapped in the lining of the pig's stomach........nothing on this earth tasted as delicious!....... Thank's for bringing back memories J..........

What a pity.....

...Hi again Molly...hope all good in your neck of the woods....... Ah it's just that it's a pity the Irish Forums have died.....I remember that fella who did his best to kill them......he was all over the place like a rash.....I had many a run in with him!.....Anyway....miss all the Irish humour that used to be on here.....the banter between Phoenix and yourself etc!....lol.....Looks like the Irish fellas have been luckier than others in meeting partners.....The gift of the gab must have paid off!....... And JJ.......no I didn't run off from my thread.....there just wasn't anybody here to answer.....hope all good with you as well........
