Take it up with the European commission that voted it the most culturally vibrant cities in Europe, mate… Don’t worry, Dublin still has its high murder rate, that’s not going anywhere.

A dub and he banging on about insular. 90% of the cunts have never been outside the county bounds

I didn’t make the list, mate and i’ve never been … But What would a lad from WEST Limerick know about culture - Wearing a scarf is enough to get ex-communicated down around there.

Funny you should mention there … sister-in-law about to re-lauch/re-open the cafe in there.

Should do well I’d say. They work hard at the place to keep it busy

50% of that 90% have never left their own street other than to score heroin.

Askeaton is a booming cultural centre mate, we’ve a contemporary arts festival and all

[anon61956325]

This is true - but for Askeaton the West would be still in the dark ages… we will have to get it within the city limits

I’d to be in Dublin yesterday for a meeting had to go through the city at peak times. Traffic wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be but I don’t know how people do it everyday

It’s high summer fella. Most normal dublin people are on their holidays in Wexford.

Most of that 50% don’t need to.

Living in Dublin 4 and walking/dublin biking it to work is bliss. Have to use the car occasionally for work and destinations vary. Anything involving the M50 or crossing the river on a long term basis is not worth it. Just move down the country and start a small farm instead.

Edit: in a car

Mate, this is an argument that is below people living in Dublin. Don’t engage

Eindhoven is the worst place I’ve ever been in my life I doubt there are many places more devoid of character or life

Frankfurt is also a horrible place
that and Phoenix are the worst cities i have ever set foot in

[Tassotti]

Cork is well known for being very clannish and parochial, they don’t like outsiders, they are also obsessed with Dublin

[flattythehurdler]

Phoenix is odd. Was there for a few weeks and am still confused as to where the actual city centre is, or of such a thing exists.
Still enjoyed it greatly.

[anon61956325]

That was the 80s when you were still living here, mate…

I was on an evening walking tour of Frankfurt some 10 years ago during a few days there for a finance team meet. It was very good, we stopped at 4 pubs along the way and finished in a very good japanese restaurant. The americans and brits really did bomb the shit out of the place.

The hotel was near the airport and was a depressing soulless place.
