ITS SHITE BEING SCOTTISH
>>200700747>ITS SHITE BEING SCOTTISHIt is.
go catch a haggis mate
>>200700747What's so bad about it?
>>200701833the people, but then, that goes for most places
>>200700747Is Scotland just a poor heroin version of Ireland?
>>200702469No, Ireland was not built up by the English nearly as much, and was never really industrialized. When they were trying to industrialize, the potato famine happened and 2/3 of the population died or left. In Ireland, you'll find some financial districts in the midst of grazing fields, rolling hills, and villages centered around pubs. Whereas Scotland was massively industrialized and only recently de-industrialized, so it's a hellscape of rotting derelict industrial facilities.
>>200700747It's shite being anything.
>>200702599>In Ireland, you'll find some financial districts in the midst of grazing fields, rolling hills, and villages centered around pubs.Any examples of this? When I went there it was just like any other west european country.
>>200700747It's funny because this scene is mocking the use of cynicism to mask the refusal to do anything about your situation. The druggies in this movie use the bleakness of their existence as an excuse to remain addicts, so when they are confronted with something beautiful and inspiring on their doorstep they reject it.

Picturer scene.
Heroin bros...is it true?
>>200704424its not even close
>>200701833They have to share the island with the En*lish. Wars were fought to get away from them.
>>200703134I live near the Sandyford Industrial Estate outside Dublin (the city not the county)It's genuinely insane how quickly it was built up, like "blink and you'll miss it" type of shitIt's like an oasis of skycrapers (by Irish standards) and multinationals that came out of nowhere 5 minutes away while I was chilling at home next to a cow pen which I only noticed when I decided to go out moreI'm a shut-in but still, shit was exponentially different when I finally saw it
>>200704354lived in limerick county for just over a year>>200704638ok, and any examples of "financial districts in the midst of grazing fields"
>>200702074>>200704580I am of Irish, Scottish, and English descent. With a bit of Norwegian and French from a loooong time ago. All my friends and family are very good at drinking.
>>200704821Our local 'finance district', to the best of my knowledge, is mostly along the canal around Dublin city centreMy brother even works for an American company thereThere's not too much difference however between fi and tech from an outside perspective, I think what the other anon was alluding to was basically what people think of in general when they think of how Ireland is a tax haven and I happen to live right in the middle of it so I thought I'd give my perspective
>>200704526you must really love cock then

>>200700747I wish Scotland was more like trainspotting so Londoners would stop moving here and all the scot typing redditors would fuck off.
>>200707858It’s time to join the Order lad. Fenians out.
>>200700890Humiliation ritual
Terminator 2 but the T-1000 is extremely racist and goes around killing black people. It's a race against time for them to come together and stop it.
>>200702469Ireland is just sad. Ireland is just a tax shithole, Google, Apple, all these companies and it just has no soul anymore because it fully leaned into it's only purpose. I'd rather live in Scotland.
>>200704424I've had women tell me that sex on Meth feels better than Heroin or regular sex, I used to do Meth which is how I would know
Everything I know about Scotland comes from Walter Scott, The Corries, Ducktales, and Samurai Jack. Is Scottish culture really as kino as they make it seem?
