you'd almost say indistinguishable Scuba wouldn't you?:p
Someone's made some pretty significant New Year's resolutions huh?
Although it is true. Once you get into a routine of exercise and good eating, it's a walk in the park. It's getting through the first few weeks of punishment that's the challenge.
And in Ireland, there's always a mate texting you inviting you on a bender to undo all your good work.
I think one of our main characteristics as an ethnicity is our absolute distrust of authority. And for good reason, what with the way we were treated for hundreds of years.
We have very funny social constructs of what characterises a good person in this country. We like a cute hooer who can get away with things with the least amount of work possible. We're a bit like gypsies in that regard.
We, as a nation, thankfully don't buy into the whole 'work is prayer' protestant ethic, and we genuinely get pleasure from cutting people down to size when they get a bit egomaniacal.
If you talk to most other nationalities about celebrity experiences they tend to recant tales of respect and admiration but us Irish we like to tell stories of how Liam Gallagher was in their local and everyone pretended they didn't know who he was to wind him up.
Personally, I love our general tendency to subvert power and status at every chance we get (which probably comes from being fcuked by the British Monarchy for so long). Then again, it takes its toll when we try as a nation to run anything efficiently - transport systems, governance systems, etc. - because we have a national chip on our shoulder about authority.
If any of y'all are interested (which I doubt any of y'all are) there was a famous ethnography done by an American anthropologist on the West of Ireland in the 1930s which I can't remember the name of, but gave great insight into common Irish traits. Unfortunately nearly every trait you can think of stems from our history of being fcuked by the British.
Actually, they do look quite different or at least distinguishable when you get to know them
And this is a culmination of about 3 New Years resolutions, some of which I've managed to achieve :pac:
As luck would have it with my feelings of positivity, I had an early start this morning and came home just now to find this email in my inbox, I've hit the fcking jackpot!!! - Handing in my notice in the morning...Dear Friend,
I guess this letter may come to you as surprise since I had no previous
correspondence with you.
I am the Chairman of the Electoral Commission Ghana (EC). I got your
contact in my search for a reliable person to handle a very confidential
transaction involving the transfer of the sum of $14.500.000 Dollars
(Fourteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) the above
fund is not connected with arms, drugs or money laundering. It is the
product of an over invoiced contract awarded in 2008 by (EC) to a foreign
company for the supply of electoral materials that were used for
conducting the 2008 elections.
The contract has long been executed and payment of the actual contract
amount has been made to the foreign contractor leaving the balance of
$14.5 million which my colleagues and I now want to transfer out of Ghana
into a reliable foreign account for our personal use.
As civil servants we are not allowed to run foreign accounts.
Hence we have chosen to front and support you as the beneficiary to this
funds. If you are interested in the proposal kindly get back to me by
sending me your letter of acceptance along with your direct telephone and
fax numbers, we have decided to share the money in the following
percentage, 60% for us 30% for you the account owner and 10% for all local
and international expenses that may arise in the course of this
transaction. Further details about this transaction will be discussed in
subsequent correspondence.
Note also that the particular nature of your business is irrelevant to
this transaction and this transaction is expected to be concluded within 5
working days since all local contacts and arrangements are in place for a
smooth and successful conclusion of this transaction.
Contact me via email with your contact telephone and fax numbers, so that I
can call you for a discussion.
Thank you as I await your response.
You can reach me on my private email account afari@in.com
yours faithfully,
Dr.Kwadwo Afari0 -

I have never laughed so hard at something as I have at this. I have no idea why it's so funny but it absolutely cracks me up.0 -
