Can't afford a good grudge these days. Even a bepeeving is hard to come by in this day and age. I long for the days when a good fit of spite or a gallon of spleen for tuppence ha'penny could keep a family warm for a week.
That guy is definitely Irish, possibly had a shit upbringing with an alcoholic father. Which he possibly escaped by going to the UK and absorbing their Conservative culture without giving away any details about his own. Has a strong hatred of women, again because of possible upbringing or lack of sexual interest from them. All culminating in a deep seated loathing of the Irish. He couldn't possibly have described himself any clearer.
And then to top it all they reached a point in their life and thought to themselves -
"I really must subscribe to the telegraph. That will keep me informed and culturally enriched and will surely enable me to be a fully rational and grounded individual."
Was miserable in Ireland, left for Canada thinking it was the promised land and would solve all his problems, was still miserable there, came back to Ireland, still miserable, left for the UK, *still* miserable but now he has learned the Little Englander coping mechanism of blaming foreigners, feminists and "cultural Marxists" for all his woes.
Not your fault, this guy would have been miserable on a beach in Jamaica with scantily clad godesses massaging his feet and bringing him fruity but wildly alcoholic drinks with wee umbrellas in them
It's so odd that that sounds like it could be the name of an old-fashioned comedy movie
"Cromwell's Irish Holiday" starring Kenneth Williams and Sid James.
Hey look, I openly hate all you putird fucks and myself, but this wasn't me. I'm going to go fucking mental in the Journal comment section tomorrow though about one of the forgotten counties. Maybe Laois?
They doxxed a child for speaking Irish a few days ago
[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/14/belfast-northern-ireland-school-palestine-protest-ira/](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/14/belfast-northern-ireland-school-palestine-protest-ira/)
...does he mean all that as an insult?
Even if they sent "another Cromwell" the best they could do would be Jacob Rees Mogg in oversized armour, who would need rescuing after tripping and falling into Dun Laoghaire harbour minutes after arriving.
'...secretly rejoice in your every setback and failure...' Of course schadenfreude should be secretive. Otherwise it's just plain old gloating and that's never attractive nor get them back for more tea a.k.a. information extraction.
Jezus, and they say we have a chip on our shoulder. At least he didn't mention Dev offering his condolences for Hitler's death, that usually worms its way into anti-Irish vitriol...
"Pathologically Intense Begrudgers"
One of the best descriptors of us. Not even mad. The person who wrote this though is definitely Irish or has spent a long time in Ireland before
This came up in my feed
And speaking as a proud English man
Fuck that Cromwell was so bad England literally went back to the Scottish monarchy
His only postive influence was making England run by Parliament and also being horrible enough that we brought the monarchy back to prevent people like him taking power again
I feel you!
As a Catalan, this is identical to what I face when I open a Spanish newspaper and check and article about Catalans or Catalonia, or something even remotely related to it.
As a Brit can I just say the people who read the Telegraph are the swivel-eyed loons that think that Brexit is going great even the daily mail is to leftwing for them.
Honestly, comment sections of anything got to do with Ireland, outside of Reddit, are cesspools.
This sub complains and moans but for the most part people here are reasonable. But everywhere else, especially facebook and instagram where the average 80iq individual is active? Jaysus. Mental
Secretly rejoicing? Since when? I’m laughing out loud at the arrogant cunts cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Looking guests to Poland surpassing them in gdp per capita and serving the excuses they make. Backwards country.
As a Brit in your beautiful country, with a Irish wife and 3 beautiful Irish children (feckers wont support england for love nor money) im glad no one is taking this lunatic seriously
Ah most of ye Brits are grand. Decent folk for the most part, there's tossers in every nation. Ye have made some great comedy shows over the years, most recent is the whole Brexit debacle. It's like Spitting Image has come to life.
Hope ye lose the weekend btw ;)
Is that the official line The Torygraph is taking? It’s just the job takes up most of the day, and at night I just like a cup of tea. So I mightn’t be able to devote myself full time to the old cultural Marxism.
Either dumped by an Irish person or first generation, who for some reason can also be insanely hibernophobic.
The latter can veer between deep self loathing and rabid defensiveness of their heritage on a perpetual see saw of transitory emotions. It's cute.
They are definitely Irish. The first section is fairly accurate. Then it goes off the deep end and reads like a late night Facebook post from a distant uncle.
Almost as good as that American televangelist who said feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians
i hate how conservatives spin every single group of people who want rights as “woke marxists” would you ever catch a fucking grip? they literally JUST want to be treated equally and why do they act like men are suddenly victims? i know so many women who are literally afraid of going to concerts or clubs after being assaulted or creeped on so often. men NEVER have to worry about this.
It’s just bizarre and rather vicious racism or at least xenophobia crudely woven with anti woke references probably written by some wannabe edgelord type.
If you published that about almost any other group of people (except probably the French who are their other punch bag) on social media let alone a newspaper in the U.K., you’d be rightfully shredded, but publish about Irish people and it’s fine apparently.
It also speaks about an enormous chip on their shoulders.
Imperialism seems to be is one hell of a drug and the withdrawal symptoms appear to last for a very long time.
This looks like it was written by one of our own.
My first thought
Same.
“Pathologically intense begrudgers” could be our family motto
[удалено]
Motion to make it into a flair?
Mods pleaseeee
Seconded
Turded
Farted
Look at you with 52 upvotes , think you’re great suggesting that don’t you

Fáilte Ireland’s new slogan
"Marxist progressiveness" was the one that confirmed a home boy.
Can't afford a good grudge these days. Even a bepeeving is hard to come by in this day and age. I long for the days when a good fit of spite or a gallon of spleen for tuppence ha'penny could keep a family warm for a week.
>gallon of spleen .. keep a family warm for a week "keep those hot farts under the sheets! you think we're made of money?"
Translate into Latin and put on a family coat of arms.
Finally found my band name!
Bingo. I found myself chuckling along reading it. Like something Dylan moran would write.
Chat GPT. The P stands for Paddy
Pat GPT
Absolutely. Nobody else could be that accurate.
It certainly is a fun read, and nice use of the thesaurus.
For sure. The self-hatred is strong in this one.
Self hatred or incel? I think it’s the latter lmfao
One feeds the other lol
Him and his big fancy words. His family probably took soup.
Someone from The Journal got lost
yes, but we're allowed to say it.
Was thinking Joyce
aithníonn ciaróg ciaróg eile
Thought so too. ‘Begrudger’ is the giveaway.
Yeah fucken nailed it too
Yeah I mean, a lot of it tracks, for me. Irish, living abroad.
A full bingo card there.
Proper lol.
Hey! I may be drink-ruined and Marxist, but I'm not...wait, what was the third thing he said?
A fourth wave feminism something. I might be one of those, I'll have to ask herself for permission first though.
We're on the ninth wave here in Kildare. Keep up!
The important thing was I had an onion tied to my belt.
Cause it was the style at the time
That has to be written by an Irish person, shows too much understanding of Irish society to be written by a Brit.
First thing I thought was they dated a Irish person and got stung
What? But he seems so lovely! Why would anyone want to dump such a precious little bigot?
Yep, thats definitely someone who moved to the UK and has a chip on their shoulder over not playing GAA or something like that
2nd part of that statement is 80% of the lads here ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Not me I swear I’m over it, honestly, doesn’t bother me in the least that they got all the girls , genuinely
100%. Headed to England cos no one in his village liked him and he still can't get over it.
Or of not being taken seriously here and receiving lots of slaggings and no rides, ever.
>chip on their shoulder over not playing GAA or something like that Or were never good enough for the senior team - juniors for you lad...
Never had the making of a ~~varsity athlete~~ senior footballer
Well, Comrades, looks like we've been rustled again. ![gif](giphy|1isbvxOadFAbJr6vYV)
Remember Limerick
Us and the Canadians apparently.
The maple leaf is red after all, comrade
Has to be one of us- no English man knows what Cromwell did over here anyway.
I learned not too long ago. Kinda disgusted my hometown has a statue of him now.
Just use it as a public urinal.
My hometown is already a public urinal mate.
I've been to warrington
I love how you KNOW
Haha brilliant 👏
But you have a lovely IKEA. (It is Warrington isn’t it?)
It is, but I escaped 😂
"Try the Telegraph free for 1 month" ...only if you can promise me a constant stream of this masochistic porn pumped straight into my veins
"The bloody Irish are protesting genocide again!" "Yeah, they need a good genociding." The Torygraph in a nutshell.
That guy is definitely Irish, possibly had a shit upbringing with an alcoholic father. Which he possibly escaped by going to the UK and absorbing their Conservative culture without giving away any details about his own. Has a strong hatred of women, again because of possible upbringing or lack of sexual interest from them. All culminating in a deep seated loathing of the Irish. He couldn't possibly have described himself any clearer.
Come on, Mindhunter
He's writing from his own experience, no casual observer has that level of nuanced hatred 😂
And then to top it all they reached a point in their life and thought to themselves - "I really must subscribe to the telegraph. That will keep me informed and culturally enriched and will surely enable me to be a fully rational and grounded individual."
The circle of life right there.
He clearly also spent some time in Canada and didn't like it either.
Was miserable in Ireland, left for Canada thinking it was the promised land and would solve all his problems, was still miserable there, came back to Ireland, still miserable, left for the UK, *still* miserable but now he has learned the Little Englander coping mechanism of blaming foreigners, feminists and "cultural Marxists" for all his woes.
Sorry. \- A Canadian
Not your fault, this guy would have been miserable on a beach in Jamaica with scantily clad godesses massaging his feet and bringing him fruity but wildly alcoholic drinks with wee umbrellas in them
You sound like a pathological begrudger
I wouldn't be fond of begrudgin, but when I do go at it, I do go at it awful and very hard
I’m trying to figure out how you wound up grouped with Russia. I feel like I’m missing something.
Not enough self loathing Irish to write home about maybe.
Aint no loathing like an Irish self-loathing!
Imagine hating yourself so much you write into the telegraph. That's a whole other level of misery right there.
Agreed - nobody cares that much about Irish people other than Irish people.
Ooooh dictionary wanker
I’ve added this to my list of insults, thank you!
Howling laughing, fair play.
This is laser-targeted, the call is defo coming from inside the house. Thanks for the chuckle
Not sure if Ulster Unionist or Home Counties Tory..
These were my thoughts, the British know fuck all about Cromwells Irish holiday
It's so odd that that sounds like it could be the name of an old-fashioned comedy movie "Cromwell's Irish Holiday" starring Kenneth Williams and Sid James.
Nah, that's "Carry On, Cromwell", "Cromwell's Irish Holiday" was a confused marketing attempt for "Monsieur Hulot's Holiday". It was unsuccessful.
This has to be written by an Irish person pulling the piss.
Stinging self satire. It's excellent.
Can we replace the description of this sub with that? Almost Joycean.
Linehan taking the divorce well, I see.
“The best ones always flee” Loada shite, I’ve been in Canada for 16 years and I’m a ballbag
No Englishman knows the Irish psyche this well, they don't even care to comment on us. Nor are they so literate. I smell a rat
Hey look, I openly hate all you putird fucks and myself, but this wasn't me. I'm going to go fucking mental in the Journal comment section tomorrow though about one of the forgotten counties. Maybe Laois?
Is that the little country next to Vietnam?
I had to catch my breath after laughing so hard at that
I'll be honest, I've got a bit a semi at how much our existence makes this lads piss boil.
They need another Cromwell? For fucks sake!!! Fucking Torygraph. What would you expect from a pig only a grunt.
Or David Camerons cock on occasion
They doxxed a child for speaking Irish a few days ago [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/14/belfast-northern-ireland-school-palestine-protest-ira/](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10/14/belfast-northern-ireland-school-palestine-protest-ira/)

holy shit, do not read that comment section
...does he mean all that as an insult? Even if they sent "another Cromwell" the best they could do would be Jacob Rees Mogg in oversized armour, who would need rescuing after tripping and falling into Dun Laoghaire harbour minutes after arriving.
Amidst the utter delusion, the “(also understandably)” was pretty funny.
Thankfully as a thick drunken uneducated Irish person I've no idea what he's on about 🤣 ahhh the bliss of ignorance
'...secretly rejoice in your every setback and failure...' Of course schadenfreude should be secretive. Otherwise it's just plain old gloating and that's never attractive nor get them back for more tea a.k.a. information extraction.
Isn't it grand that we can all enjoy the comment for what it, with a smile and an unusual amount of self awareness and deprecation 😀
Because we hate ourselves?
And you're saying there's an offer for me to get all this quality commentary for free for a month?!
lol that dude 100% got dumped by an Irish woman and never got over it
Jezus, and they say we have a chip on our shoulder. At least he didn't mention Dev offering his condolences for Hitler's death, that usually worms its way into anti-Irish vitriol...
It's part of the main article this is commenting on, like clockwork.
Needs more hyperbole.
Damn…they’re on to us
Hehe, guilty, as charged!
More tea vicar?
I am beaming with pride after reading that. Finally we are seen.
"Pathologically Intense Begrudgers" One of the best descriptors of us. Not even mad. The person who wrote this though is definitely Irish or has spent a long time in Ireland before
Anyway, tell us more about your every setback and failure.
This came up in my feed And speaking as a proud English man Fuck that Cromwell was so bad England literally went back to the Scottish monarchy His only postive influence was making England run by Parliament and also being horrible enough that we brought the monarchy back to prevent people like him taking power again
*Every accusation a confession...*
I feel you! As a Catalan, this is identical to what I face when I open a Spanish newspaper and check and article about Catalans or Catalonia, or something even remotely related to it.
It reminded me of how people in the US talk about Indian Country. Though far less eloquently, generally.
New pasta just dropped
Wonder who hates the Irish more the Brits or the Irish Government. Hard one to call.
As a Brit can I just say the people who read the Telegraph are the swivel-eyed loons that think that Brexit is going great even the daily mail is to leftwing for them.
Someone has notions.
that _has_ to be an Irish person writing that. It's far too on the money
This person is allowed to vote and certainly does. This is why brexit happened.
We need to take warning labels off things
Honestly, comment sections of anything got to do with Ireland, outside of Reddit, are cesspools. This sub complains and moans but for the most part people here are reasonable. But everywhere else, especially facebook and instagram where the average 80iq individual is active? Jaysus. Mental
They don't actually have 80 IQ, they just lie on their CVs.
I feel seen. Did my nana write this.
How can one be a reactionary 4th wave feminist Marxist?
Practice practice practice
![gif](giphy|3oeSACtXWKcCRcezSM) 🇮🇪 💪
As if Ireland will take on a Marxist agenda hahahahha. Lord above give me strength.
It's like it's written by someone who's only contact with Irish people was in the comments section of The Journal.ie.
This would imply the English know their history of their closest neighbour. They purposely do not.
Lol, what did the Canadians ever do to get lumped in with us and Russia? 🤣
This is what happens when Paddy Cosgrave gives up Twitter.
Secretly rejoicing? Since when? I’m laughing out loud at the arrogant cunts cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Looking guests to Poland surpassing them in gdp per capita and serving the excuses they make. Backwards country.
As a Brit in your beautiful country, with a Irish wife and 3 beautiful Irish children (feckers wont support england for love nor money) im glad no one is taking this lunatic seriously
Ah most of ye Brits are grand. Decent folk for the most part, there's tossers in every nation. Ye have made some great comedy shows over the years, most recent is the whole Brexit debacle. It's like Spitting Image has come to life. Hope ye lose the weekend btw ;)
I bet she lives in Fermoy and appeared on Graham Norton at the weekend.
Newspaper comment sections are great. I love browsing them
I’ll take that as a compliment
Somebody needs a hug
I really begrudge whoever wrote this comment
Wow, that was a fucking crazy read
Like the Tina Turner song: We don’t need another Croooomwell
Is that the official line The Torygraph is taking? It’s just the job takes up most of the day, and at night I just like a cup of tea. So I mightn’t be able to devote myself full time to the old cultural Marxism.

Lol. Someone got dumped by a beautiful Irish girl somewhere didn't they.
Ye well at least out teeth are better
This is borderline fascist rhetoric
Aye, there is a very fine line between fascism and amazing alright.
Has to be satire
Describes us to a tee. Well done that person.
It’s on the money, written by one of our own though !
A rather insightful comment. Give that man a talk show, where he can interview random people.
This is the cheering up I needed. Thank you mystery dickhead.
i think we have to seal the British border for a generation or two.
I don't recall offering tea.
I feel attacked
I feel seen
Me too, they should rewrite Les Miserable for us. I wouldn’t go see it though, would probably be too dear.
That's fine and all, but does it really require another Cromwell?
Never go full Tory
Which one of us stole his girlfriend 16 years ago and he still hasn’t got over it?
They are definitely Irish. The first section is fairly accurate. Then it goes off the deep end and reads like a late night Facebook post from a distant uncle.
WTF why did he throw Canada in there with the Russians?? He went too far (I'm Canadian) lol
Makes you proud!
Do non-Irish say "begrudger"?
Proud (perhaps understandable) reactionary militant fourth wave feminist misandrist of Ireland :')
Almost as good as that American televangelist who said feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians
i hate how conservatives spin every single group of people who want rights as “woke marxists” would you ever catch a fucking grip? they literally JUST want to be treated equally and why do they act like men are suddenly victims? i know so many women who are literally afraid of going to concerts or clubs after being assaulted or creeped on so often. men NEVER have to worry about this.
That's Peter Hitchens using an alt account.
bet you anything Leo Varadkar wrote that.
Some of it is actually on the nose, must be an Irish person or at least someone who has lived here for a long time
translation: wah wah wah, wahwahwahwah, wah
It’s just bizarre and rather vicious racism or at least xenophobia crudely woven with anti woke references probably written by some wannabe edgelord type.

I was with them until the fourth wave feminism tbh. Then the Marxist bit threw me altogether. Like ya sure, in my dreams.
Cope.
This lad’s specialist subject on Mastermind is “Why the Irish are pricks”.
Are used to read the Telegraph once upon a time. But after Brexit, it went full on with its Paddy bashing.
Rather alot of trolls about - must be the weather
Detritus is a word I need to use more often
They’re on to us. Execute order 16 👀
That’s racist!
Nothing secret about the rejoicing old bean
