Wow.

A few years ago I would binge drink. Now even 6 is a lot for me. Previous to the last 6 months, I only drank like once a month too.

Occasionally I play with the idea of stopping drinking period.

(Currently, I am going out 1-2 nights a week for 1-4 drinks to be social.)

What's a psychologist going to do? Ask him about his childhood, please. He is sick for real.

Mr Anderson said he believed it was time to consider that Gareth may have a serious problem with alcohol.

“That’s why I want to get the psychologist involved,” he told the BBC. “I want to know what is going on in his head. It is alcoholism but there’s a mental problem here as well.”
Not to be too picky, but aren't the Andersons British ?

You know Ireland has more drunks per capita than people
which makes this a bit misleading, not to say insulting.

Irish coffees all round.

The name might be, but the Brits shoved these people down our throat about 300 years ago. By now, they think they are Irish too. Apparently they are partly right, as the Brits feel free to make fun of them. Obviously, they can't hold their drink like the real Irish.

Sorry, but aren't you American?

Do you know what pisses off the Irish more than anything (even the English)?

Americans constantly blabbering on about being Irish when the most Irish they've ever been is in the Paddy O'Connor pub drinking a Guinness

Based on molly's sense of humour, he is clearly German.

Hasn't your recent place visited got more cubic metres of batter than people at any time?

Scotland isn't just trying, it's succeeding. It's just sheer American desire to be #1 that is keeping the last deep fried pork pie out of Scotland's reach.

"Lardathon" is probably the most accurate term

If all those Americans can claim to be Irish, why can't they be?
Because they're not Irish, they're British.

You can have your own drunks and sozzled reprobates, you don't need to move them over the border by default.


Based on molly's sense of humour, he is clearly German. Based on my pseudonym you eejit, I am rather more likely to be Irish. Based on your knowledge of geography and nationality, you are clearly American... ...note the reference to Irish coffees all round, you great galoot.

The name might be, but the Brits shoved these people down our throat about 300 years ago. I can't recall having any Brit shoved down my throat (at least not unwillingly). I'll check the family records to see if we stored any settlers that way- it does seem unlikely.

By the way, the first of the plantations was in Elizabeth I's time, but the Brits (or Anglo-Normans,if you're going to be picky) have been there since at least Henry II's reign. Mostly thanks to Irish infighting and an English Pope.

BTW, that is an insult to Germans, not to molly. Oh dear Dauphin. Does your pseudonym imply a French connection ? If so, tant pis....

You really are a humourless person.

Based on my pseudonym you eejit, I am rather more likely to be Irish.

Calling me an eejit is rather offensive, but I won't take it personally, you wassock.

Why thank you for the compliment. Please note the thread title is nonsense to start with, you drongo.

Oh dear Dauphin. Does your pseudonym imply a French connection ? If so, tant pis.... Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
