Dublin this weekend (1 Viewer)

[maims bond]

Anything interesting to do on Saturday? Heading to the Analog festival in the evening but want some daytime activity. Shows/museums/exhibitions? Where are the best coin slot arcades these days? Is Guineys still there?

 

[Wobbler]

The Temple Bar Food Market is a great way to pass ten/fifteen minutes.

Apparently the 'Urban Beach' is still around in George's Dock in the IFSC.

I hate being back. I went for a run yesterday after I woke up from my nap and I came home in tears. I'd spent 3 1/2 weeks away from the undercurrent of violent hostility and it really hit me like a ton of fucking bricks. Three and a half weeks without so much as a fucking dirty look even when I was running through rough-ish neighbourhoods, and my first day back I get shit thrown at my head, people running at me, screaming in my face, etc.

I hate living in Dublin with whatever is left of my soul. I knew I shouldn't come back. I had the worst panic attack of my entire life just before I got on the plane, and it shocked even me. I was so fucking terrified I can't even explain it.

So if you're looking for something interesting to do, don't bother because some hostile shitforbrains will surely wreck your fun. Why don't you start a fight instead? At least no one can ruin that for you.

booo-erns to Dublin. It is smelly and dirty and full of assholes, but only when its raining. When its sunny, 's not so bad. Can't wait to get out of here though. i'm gonna start a broccoli plantation somewhere nice.

Thanks Jane

It's all because ders nao facilitiiieeeus!!!

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Yeah Dublin is 100% violent hostility, everywhere at every minute of every day. I'd say that's its defining feature.

 

[Franco]

You should invest in a treadmill, Jane.

it's free. i think if people don't collect the tickets they reserved then they're given away at the box office. should be good.

 

[jane]

How about just getting a bag of chips and some cans, dropping all of your litter all over the ground, and then spitting on passers-by, then moaning about how the city is gone to shit?

It's a popular activity so it must be really good fun.

 

[classic seanc]

It is actually, yeah.


However, it has its plus points. They elude me right at the moment...but they exist! Do a search.


Go to the zoo, it has a red panda. A RED PANDA!

 

[jane]

What seanc said.

It has its good points, but that's not enough.

I didn't invent the hostility, I just find it really difficult to stomach. Some people have elaborate coping mechanisms for dealing with it, other people are so hostile themselves that they think it's normal.

I never want to think it's normal.

Try going to the zoo, yah. Or try going out to Howth and visiting the Radio Museum in the Martello tower, which is the least shitty place in this whole shitty city. Talk to the guy who runs it, who is the awesomest.

yeah, a red panda, sobbing in his gloomy cage because he has to live in Dublin.

Sobbing while licking the chip grease off his once-shiny red coat.

That's more like it, Howth would be good. And everyone out there is middle-upper class so no danger of being shat upon. The zoo is out, can't think of a grimmer place to visit. Are you in a bad mood Jane?

 

[classic seanc]

I like Dublin too.
It's full of cunts though. There's loads of dickheads in Howth too btw, but you won't have to talk to them.

 

[jane]

I like Dublin.

I desperately want to like Dublin, but it's like trying to be friends with a junkie. No matter how many decent qualities he or she has, you're never quite comfortable, and you're still going to end up out of pocket and with a black eye.

dublin's deadly. fuck the recession

Sweet mother of Christ, where do you live?

Jane is the worlds most attacked jogger.

I'd laugh but I believe her.
