    I was dating a girl who told me she didn't like oral sex. Well I told her I'd definitely change her mind on this as my prowess in that department was second to mone( in my opinion)... After ten minutes I looked up end she was eating pizza !! That was depressing!!

    3 girls , aged about 16/17 in pajamas and wearing dressing gown ( dirty grey ) , disheveled looking , over weight and smoking , and all this when they are pushing buggies , its at this point i thought " i have to get the **** out of this country " - not going to have my kids grown up around this pond life.

    bye bye Ireland - its just not worth the trouble :(

    I'll tell you.a story.. Harrowing and depressing it is.. a story of love, desperation and loss... By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl call: Michael they have taken you away, for you stole Trevor's porn so that you might get the horn, now a prison ship lies waiting at the bay

    Low lie the fields of Athenry
    Where once we smoked till we were high
    Our love was on the wing,
    We were gonna have loads of bling.. It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.

    I once witnessed a gay mate of mine smoking in his boxers while hungover with the shipping forecast on the radio in the background while he told me he hated Fibber's but he was definitely going next Friday. Beat that for miserable.

    You paint quite a picture.

    :pac:

    Was at the Rory Gallagher festival where I saw a middle aged chap trip as he entered one of the portaloos. He fell in such an awkward way that his head went right down the bowl before the door closed behind him.

    Another time I was walking behind someone, a good few metres back. Saw him stop, took a quick look around, shake his leg, and something big rolled out from under his trousers.

    When I passed by what he rolled out I realised it was poo :(

    Rory Gallagher festival :) went this year for the first time, amazing!
    (Completely OT) :o

    Something really bugged me about that festival, the amount of parents smoking weed around their young kids. One couple beside us were filthy, hair, clothes, nails...and they were smoking joints, getting pissed and their 7 year old daughter was right beside them.

    Also, on the bus down the driver went 15 minutes out of his way to drop an old lady at her front door. Mental.

    Saw a lad 2 weeks ago or so on the main street of the town on a Friday. He was coming out of the pub and it was around 6pm so the town was busy out. He was wearing bage pants and his whole front was destroyed from his zipper to his knees in piss, he had a fag in one hand and was using his other one to try hide it. He looked fairly drunk so probably thought people didn't notice

    Trying to sleep in a wet tent - how incredibly depressing. I sucked my thumb, quietly wept, and imagined my Mum was making me tea.

    That was last 'summer'.

    A classmate took their own life in third year, those of us in the base tutor group attended the wake, funeral and also formed a guard of honour. Those were all equally depressing and bleak, as was the general mood in school.
    A few years ago I did a family photo studio for a guy, his wife , son and 4 month baby boy.

    Two weeks after the guy had a car accident and died. At that point they had been in and picked their pictures and were due back that week to collect them.

    She came in the day of the accident to collect them from me. I have to say it was one of the most depressing days of my life as I cropped him out of the family picture to enlarge and frame for the coffin picture.
    Eh right now, good night everyone.

    The GUIDE clinic waiting area at James' has to be up there for me.

    Saw a bunch of women drinking and smoking joints on their porch at 9am, in the middle of winter. They were all wrapped up but the 4 year old playing round their feet was barefoot and in thin pajamas. The cops showed up, had a word and left, after which they all had a good laugh and resumed getting wasted. :(

    I've seen the same outside Crumlin Children's Hospital, except that time the kid was already sick before being dragged outside in her PJs.

    Jaysus you are packing your bags because three young mothers are smoking. Good luck finding somewhere in the world that is sensitive enough for you.

    Popped in to the local corner shop for a packet of smokes or something one afternoon last year. There were a couple of traveller women from a sort of impromptu halting site on the main road a few fields away in there too, with a few kids left outside. One lad of about seven or eight drops the britches and takes a dump right outside the door of the shop. You never saw anything as fucken wild in your life. I though that was both quite depressing and outrageously funny at the same time... :pac:

    Back in college I had about £15 a week spending money. Once there was a delay on my wages and I was literally down to my last pound. I hadn't eaten all day and the only thing I could afford was a burger from the McDonald's £1 menu.

    Also, watching two people stand in front of a roomful of people and described how they had been tortured. The things a person can go through and still come out the other side, and smile and chat and still be a whole person... it's overwhelming.

    Final year college, close to the end of the year and my silage summer working money was finally running out. Needed an evening snack and all i had was the heel of a loaf and half a jar of nutella.

    I toasted the heel. As I went to spread the nutella I knocked the jar onto the tiled floor and its smashed everywhere, so hungry I gathered what I could and still spread it on the toast. When i sat down in front of the tv i saw the tiny pieces of glass glimmering up from the toast. Even though it really should have been an easy decision it took a good few minutes for me to decide to throw it away. Went to bed hungry.

    Thats terrible many times myself and partner had to go hungry so the kids could eat. I remember one day we were starving we had slice of toast all day until the next day, I remember after kids were fed and snuggled to bed we sat there crying it was horrible.

    Well my once off story pales in comparison to that heartbreaking situation.

    Hope things are better now for you and yours. :)

    I saw a man go from 100% sobriety to the recovery position in 45 minutes after necking most of a pint of absinthe to 'play catch up' after arriving late at a festival.

    You could actually see his condition deteriorate before your eyes. We called first aid. And stuck the absinthe label in his pocket.

    Lucky man if he's still alive

    So what else did you have the issue with the PJs or the overweight bit, or was it that they were too "dishevelled" for you? plus if you read my post you will clearly see that i also noticed the bit about the kids and the number 3. I think I did ok to pick three things up from your moral panic muddle.

    Also if you think I proved your point with an (attempted) joke post on an anonymous internet forum then I agree its time for you to go.

    You are obviously looking for reasons. Toodles so.

    :eek: You dont say? Well i stand corrected so. Both my brain and eyes apologise for missing such an obvious "hint". You see to my simple logic it looked like he saw three gutter birds and had a hissy fit.

    Cant imagine how I could have gotten it so wrong. I`ll be in the corner.

    if you did not get the original point , then i suggest you read it again , and look at the big picture , its not the individual points , its them at as a life style , if you think young teenagers with kids , wearing dirty bed clothes , greasy hair , smoking and shouting like sailors is an attractive life style for generations of family's , then you are just part of the problem

    moral panic puddle ?? that's ****e talk buddy , it am just sick of being surrounded by state sponsored wastes of skin , they will be granny's by the time they are in their late 30's - moral panic , na , no panic

    and as for you statement that i am looking for reasons to go , well unfortunately i dont need to look very hard for reasons to go.

    anyway - the thread is about the most depressing scene, if you did not find what i post in first post depressing , then that says more about you than me.
