    all political dispute will be solved in the thunderdome, or a 'rage in the cage' type scenario. Politicians may develop comedic personas if they wish.

    Nothing will change. The rich will still be rich and everyone else will still be struggling.

    I'm neither rich nor struggling. I must not exist :eek:

    We should be swinging back into another "boom" in ten years so we can look forward to another generation getting themselves into horrendous debt because they gots to have ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    It'll be the exact same as it is now except worse.

    Now you're just talking scheisse.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 813 ✭✭✭wiger toods


    Ireland would have won euro 2012:D
    Poor people will have gone mental from all those years of struggling to survive and will overthrow the rich, in turn making them eat their own sh*t while laughing at them at the same time as some form of mental/hilarious punishment.
    Jim corr will be dancing in the middle of eyre square in a pink ballerina outfit, halo above his head and a magic wand in his right hand still shouting 'A one world goverment is what they want' and "Those towers were blown up", George bush beside him in a banana suit with a poor attempt at a handmade sign reading "he's telling the truth you know" (he'll have mispelt the word 'the' too)
    Ireland will no longer be called ireland instead being renamed as "Little China", Because the chinese will have bought up the entire world at this stage including zee germans. We will all have to work long, inhumane hour's for nike or addidas as a result, making poor quality runners.
    As a result again, georgia salpa, under chinese tightarse law will no longer be able to make a fortune from her huge, over grown tit's (:D) and will be forced to become a back alley hooker. "Howya Boys, fancy a handjob" will be the whisper from behind the bin's after hour's.

    Fianna Fail will be back in power (coalition with Sinn Fein, maybe)...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,348 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    The cars will be robotic and drive us everywhere we won't have to learn to drive other than use the controls! ah life would be easier and simple if that were the case but think manual or automatics be around for at least another century!
