    Here's the best reason I've come up with:

    When you're sitting on the bus or the train and some particularly clever bunch
    wise a$$ gooks (French, Spanish etc) start slagging the sh!te out of you in
    their own language (which you dont't know), and start laughing at you,
    you can have a good laugh back at them and slag the sh!te out of 'em in
    Irish, which really surprises them.

    This moment (which will inevitably happen in all our lives at some stage,
    and has happened to me) is well worth the years and years of torture ...

    Listen, I went to an all Irish school and had to speak Irish every day and do my exams thro` Irish.
    So stop whinging, ya little uncultured shyte.

    Did you know that the biggest group of Irish speakers
    outside of Ireland is the Isralie army? They use it
    like the U.S. used Navaho in WWII
