    LOL :D

    For my experience...Galway town it's 50% of us ppl from abroad...that can be a good thing but also take away "irishiness" from the place...if u are looking for the hippish-cosmopolitan-stoned place, Galway it's your place...(not the county, the town, and expecially some venues more than others).
    'Bout Cork...Cork has been always kind to me till now :)

    Its mainly the Greeks we're after. Sure they invented gayness! Beglians, Lithuanians and Italians should be okay. Would worry about being partially Dub though, thats a right ol' embarrassment.

    I've heard rumours that they discriminate against foxes, often serving road kill as chicken on menus. Could this be true?

    As a native I'd certainly say so though I can't offer a relative comparison that screens Cork city against a the rest of Ireland.
