What's the crack with that gimp-comedian who worked in abrekebabra and patronised the scobes in Limerick?

To be fair to them though being able to turn right on a red light is a very good idea. In fact it's probably the apogee of American civilization.

actually thats more of a slight on us.
American guy moves to Ireland and makes a career out of taking the piss out of us. Yet people still go and see his show. Only in Ireland.
His latest one is learning to speak Irish. Hilarious. Fucking not.

Cleverly, backed with the full intellectual weight of his BA from UCC, and under the auspices of humour, he turns the mirror on us..and at first we laugh along, and then, oh no, we don't like what we see! GENIUS!

Yeah think so, but he uses his background to play the outsider shtick..the detached observer.

A man I work with has a 20 minute anecdote about the time he was in Texas and he got sweetened instead of unsweetened iced tea. (apparently they love that sweetened shit down there). I heard the "story" about 5 times now.

Squrls.
no way! I thought only the squirrels in my back garden had mastered the light-sabre. Damn, my paper on it for Nature is defunct now.
Bummer.

When I was a squirrel I used to always do crap like that. People called me a bummer then as well.

The south is a whole other country, my friend. Sugar in tea, outrageous.
you crazies don't butter your bread either. Crazy crazies.
Butter is vile. What's with just jam sandwiches?
Side note: I came home once to find a squirrel in my kitchen eating an ice cream cone. Resourceful little guys.

was it a 99?
No, just the cone, no ice cream. He gnawed through the screen window, got into a box of cones, opened the plastic and grabbed one. After all that I figured the little guy deserved them. I gave him the whole box and tried to domesticate him. Both lasted about 3 minutes.
One of the lads I work with has a pot up high on a shelf pointing to a skylight.
He reached up there to get something one day, and grabbed a squirrel, thinking it was clothes or something.
He thought it was dead, but then it woke up, he dropped it, and it legged it out the window.
They were coming in to take naps in the plant, run little forays to rob food out of his gaff. He was wondering who was eating his grapes.
Thankfully no one got hurt in the making of this story.
