    Have 4/5 hours to kill in Dublin tomorrow and was hoping someone might know where there is free wi-fi (with preferably somewhere to plug the laptop in) in the above places or in city centre even. I have heard Kylemore in St. Stephen's Green is one, are there any others? Many thanks. Also I know this is the After Hours forum, and you have to work for answers here, so for every response I receive that is helpful to my aim, I shall post a crude but humourous or clean and humourous joke. Its your choice!

    Every McDonalds in the world ( the real world ) has wi-fi. Since everyone knows this, you could also say every good hotel.

    Bring your laptop. Start -> Connect to -> wireless network -> connect. Or just log on to microsoft.com for an instructional video before you leave the house.

    Squat outside Google.

    Leave an empty coffee cup beside you as well to kill two birds with the one stone.

    Yes, ask them they give you the key. You have to buy something first. :)

    As requested:
    One day two very loving parents got into a huge fight, the man called the women a "bitch" and the women called the man a "bastard".

    Their son walked in and said "What does bitch and bastard mean?" and the parents replied "ladies and gentlemen".

    The next day the parents decided to have sex, the women said "feel my titties" and the man said "feel my dick".

    Their son walked in and asked "What does titties and dick mean?" and the parents replied "hats and coats".

    On Thanksgiving the dad was shaving and he cut himself, "S&^*" he said, the kid came in and asked "What's that mean" and the man said it was the brand shaving cream he was using.

    Down stairs the mom was preparing the turkey, and she cut herself, "F&*^" she said. Once again the kid asked "What's that mean" the mom said that is what she calls stuffing the turkey.

    Then the door bell rang. The kid answered the door to his relatives and said "Alright you bitches and bastards, put your dicks and titties in the closet, my dad is upstairs wiping the **** off his face, and my mom is in the kitchen ****ing the turkey!

    edit: ooops this isn't the AH forum got confused... is this against the rules my good mod? Apologies if so.

    outside the dental council on merrion square. one of those buildings has unbelievably fast free wifi. great for downloading which i don't think you can do in mickey d's or most hotels, where it could take ages either.

    Wow, I would've thought the dental council to still be in their teething process in relation to high speed broadband
