I forgot that americans aren't allowed to purchase alcohol til they're 21. lol. different in mexico though isn't it? ugh, alcohol sucks, really. It's more fun drinking it when you're not supposed to. Once you 'come of age' it loses it's thrill, of course there's always exceptions.ow my tummy hurts. was ill for the whole of the turn of new year
Some America politician I presume. The age was only 16 in Spain until a few years ago! Realistically in Ireland once your 16/17 you'll be able to drink in pubs.
Gasp, not on your nelly mate!!!! (no offence to any essex people, I have friends in essex). Nah, I'm from Royal Berks, near Windsor.
Ah right, what is it with Essex and people not liking it, is it to do with done up Escorts and slappers or I remember a mate of mine who lived in London for a while said that's all there was in Essex. Probably a slight exaggeration but stereotypes don't just appear out of nowhere.
I have no idea why people don't like essex people. I like essex, I have a lot of friends who go there, yet my first reaction is to go "no way i'm not from there". Guess must be imitative behaviour when others go "eww no way i'm not from there". Don't know where the stereotype came from, maybe it's to do with the accent?
I know what you mean, the eqivilant of someone one France or Spain asking an Irish person are they from England, always happens and I always like "definitely not"
It's kinda racist in a way, but it's hard not to automatically say stuff like that when you're surrounded by people who say negative things about other cultures. eg, over here, there are WAY too many irishmen jokes, and i have a certain fondness for the irish due to the fact that I have a huage amount of rellies over there and I just love the place, so anytime someone says one of those jokes I feel highly insulted. note to self:think twice before speaking.
I heard a few of them before, fuck it if you can't laugh at your own sterotypes what can you laugh at. Most Irish people have a bit of an inbuilt hate for the English due to the history and all that but it's all a bit stupid if you ask me but that's the way it goes, alot of people just don't realise that you can't blame everyone in England now for what happened ages ago. The reason most Irish people (or me anyway) don't like people thinking we're English is cos one, we're not and two because on the continent people seem to be friendlier when they hear you are Irish.
I wasn't too hungover. My boyfriend, however, hah. He tried to go to work at 8 am, ended up missing the bus, chasing it down, then puking on it once he got on....He came home. I laughed my ass off.
...I woke up on a trampoline in some strange person's backyard... No drinking and no hangover, though.
