So now everyone's a mod and there's no Jambo?

The space/time continuum has taken a beating this weekend.
 
Finally, phew.

Jambo's gone to bed after an epic three day melt-down.

He might not recover from this latest bout at all, but his luck is in: tonight they're showing that documentary by Steven Speilberg about the Jews and that German bloke who hired loads of them for his tin pot factory. Schindler, Oskar - wasn't it? Those happy Jews in the holiday camp even made him a golden ring to say so long and thanks for all the fish.

Jambo might enjoy learning some history if he tunes in.
That's actually rather hilarious
 
I really don't know where you're getting this "snake tongue" thing from.

I've been nice with you (tried to anyway) since I made my (glorious, Ali-like) return to this ring and you were, at least initially, too.

And David has been nice to me, I've had full membership from the get-go (no jerking around).

What's your problem? 🤔
 
Not sure if this is correct but isn't the Supermac's on O'CS Dublin referred to as the Bogger Embassy?

Couldn't tell you - I always walked past without even glancing in.

On a slightly positive note - fair play to the Irishman who set it up to compete with the global brands.

On a negative note: I'd rather starve than eat out of an Irish burger joint.

Seriously, if you ever get to see the backstage areas of most Dublin outlets (as I have) you'd never trust any of them again.

At least the traditional Italian chippers cook their shit in front of you.

You wouldn't believe the state of some rather popular places, I could start listing names and locations but I won't.

Suffice it to say that if you trust in any of them to have your health and best experience catered for, then you're a fool.

One thing about that before I go: if you fancy a real fish and chips 'experience' then try Sheehan's of Chatham Street. Their kitchen is tiny, but spotlessly clean and their in-house chefs are fucking awesome. They have a limited menu with traditional foods like stews and coddles, lamb shank, quality steaks, but their service is wonderful and the fish and chips from heaven. Yeah, it costs a bit more but you're going to be eating in a beautiful pub with loads of history (my family and the Sheehan's go back years to my Grandad's days in the 1940s) and famous faces.

The Whiskey Rooms upstairs is also awesome and you can rent a stash-box with your name on a plaque and your favourite expensive whiskies locked safely away. You might even get one next to Jagger's, or Sting's. Or your wan from 'Pretty Woman' with the teeth. Or the Mowl. Loads of familiar names have one.

Mowl Mowl wouldn't know who Niels Bohr is, or was

Correct.

Nor would he even care to find out.

Now fuck off.

Correct (despite him being from your neck of the woods)

I tried Fortune Terrace Buffet (Chinese) on O'CS a few weeks ago...absolutely disgusting experience:

▪︎Most food seemed to be reheated.

▪︎The sushi was crap

▪︎Found a HAIR in the noodles.

▪︎The texture of the chicken was rotten.

▪︎Rip-off prices for just a can of coke.

▪︎The bathroom was like something out a horror film.

▪︎The staff there are not only unfriendly and hostile but are watching you like a hawk at all times to see that you're (a) not wasting food...or (b) taking too much - despite the place being advertised as an all-you-can-eat buffet.


An absolute kip of a place and the food is nowhere near worth €15. I'd rather take my chances with Lu Kim's City Wok.



 
For that price you'd have a deliciously perfect pint of Guinness (or Murphy's - the house preference) along with the fish and chips and still have change for a tip.

Try it sometime - you won't be disappointed.



I did most of the signage you see all over the pub.

The main overhead panels were done by another sign-writer/calligraphy artist - gold leaf too.

Spongy?

I remember one of my great disappointments, shortly after I arrived in Sydney, was when my mates who were already living there took me to Chinatown, I just didn't like the texture of the chicken (and the beef) at all. But I think they cook it like that

That was dog food, Jambo.

It's really easy actually: if the bowl is on the floor, it's for the dogs.

If the bowl is on the table, it's yours.
 
It'll be gas when I'm gone.. because the Australian mong will have to "moderate" (in between posting memes and tweets, which is all he previously did). With me gone, he'll have no one to "moderate" (or indeed lie about) but he'll have to do it :)
lol.. I told you -

Post in thread 'Ukraine War' https://www.sarsfieldsvirtualpub.com/threads/ukraine-war.767/post-86442

Imagine thinking that it was a good idea to give the useless, spamming Australian mong moderator buttons 🤣

And the other fools don't realise that once the foreign fool is done "moderating" me and Kangal, he'll move on to them
 
Staying with the Blazing Saddles theme, how about Lili Von Shtupp considering how you inadvertently fell in love with Muhommad Ali after trying to use him. Oh you also get to pretend to be a woman just like all your gimp buddies on Arsefields, that's another bonus. Or simply shtupp. As in shtupp Jambo, ffs, with your white supremacist shite.
roc, I read this on Telegram and I thought of you, do you think it's an accurate description? 🤔 -

One of the core reasons for the dominance of leftism over conservatism is that leftism doesn't focus upon appealing to "normal" people, but upon appealing to the alienated. Normal people generally just want things to stay normal because normality is working out for them, and not wanting things to change is obviously not a basis from which you can organise people to change society.

Social change therefore will always come from politically organising the alienated, as it is only the alienated who will have revolutionary desires. Any genuine resistance to the left will therefore need to base itself in forms of alienation that leftism doesn't care about or appeal to.

Another one of the underappreciated reasons for leftist cultural and political dominance over conservatism is its embrace of transgression. What often attracts people to leftism is more the feeling of empowerment that flows from irreverence than any positive value it claims to uphold. Leftists don't actually care about "diversity" or "inclusion" as universal principles - they are just constructs they use to rationalise their desire to piss in the face of 'White supremacy' or 'the patriarchy' or 'heteronormativity' or whatever.

Conservatism in its abhorrence of controversy and its self-image as upholding tradition and the "common sense" of normal people however is totally devoid of this aspect, which makes it devoid of pleasure or fun. Transgression is seductive because it is the release of socioculturally repressed energies, and therefore functions as a form of self-realisation. This is what sucks people into leftism during their late teens/early twenties, during the phase of life focused upon self-discovery.
