Some people say only Irish people get the Irish sense of humour. I don't get that. Sure what isn't funny about a hurricane in Ireland?!

in #irish8 years ago (edited)

When the Irish get weather warnings, what do we do?

Sure what better weather for swimming or diving or kite surfing!

Yes that was a streaker...

From reddit:

When the electricity and broadband goes out...

From Twitter:








This one is actually not from Ophelia but it remains close to our Irish hearts

Humour is the best coping mechanism

If we do go out, by god we'll go out having the craic!

Sort:  

you did this post so I don't have too - I have been cracking up since watching Twitter all day yesterday (once I made sure my little house was safe and the horses were okay and my daughter was okay). And I am not insensitive to the three people who lost their lives during in the hurricane. In fairness I think the Irish Government did a good job yesterday (long time since I used that phrase) and people did stay home - which accounted for the low fatalities.

But these beauts are fabulous. I love being Irish!

Thanks and going to resteem now - you did so I don't have to

ahhh this is SO uplifting! Despite all the atrocity in the world, the Irish make proud to be human! Its a delight to see the reactions and a joy to know that somewhere amidst all the chaos, theres a bunch of merry bandits having a right proper craic. Let the wind blow eh? That pensioner in the sea is a frippin' legend

@beanz!!!! You corker, you!

Well, that's about all the Irish I learned from the movies. I used it correctly, right?! 😁

It should be noted that myself and @beanz sat in the sitting room all day, no power, no cooked food, and played Dominion by the light of some crappy little candles.

LOL, no don't tell them all that!!! 😂

Lol you clearly never experienced a hurricane in the states. The craziest parties I attended in college were hurricane parties

Excellent compilation :-) Resteemed and upvoted.
