It has two floors and on both floors you can get a sub. In all other two-floor Subways in Ireland, one of the floors is just a seating area. It’s not really all that big a deal.
@Luke
Just looked up Michael Collins on wikipedia, I didn’t know he was from Cork…
Shopping centres are the same everywhere – hell on earth unless there’s free food samples.
that That Mitchell and Webb Look – Football shit from that youtube link sucked balls. I mean it’s clearly soccer they are talking about not football. Idiots!
@...Snarky Parker: Lucky Charms are american, we don’t even (thankfully) have ’em here, not that they are bad but it really would feed into that damn stereotype much more if we did have them.
Yeah Ireland is pretty much the same as America, except it’s greener cause it rains more, we have different accents and we start drinking at a younger age.
@joodles,
If you get a chance, try a local beer made there in Cork called Beamish.
And here’s a limerick for you.
There was a young man from Grants pass
who’s bollocks were constructed of brass.
In stormy weather, they’d clang together and
lightning would shoot out of his ass.
@...LukeV1-5: NO!, we could use him for something else. give him to me, me and FlyingMantis will know what to do because i have some friendship validation to start doing.
That didn’t work, for three reasons.
Anyhoo… People from Limerick aren’t known for Limericks, not in Ireland anyway. We’re better known for our violence.
“The origin of the actual name limerick for this type of poem is obscure. Its usage was first documented in England in 1898 (New English Dictionary) and in America in 1902. It is generally taken to be a reference to the County of Limerick in Ireland (particularly the Maigue Poets), and may derive from an earlier form of nonsense verse parlour game that traditionally included a refrain that ended ‘Come all the way up to Limerick?'”
The violence thing means people don’t mess with you. It’s generally a good thing. A friend returned to her car to find someone trying to break in. The guy held a crowbar to her face and asked “where are you from?”. When she said she was from Limerick, he scampered off.
@...joodles: she must be proud to be from Limerick lol. i get that sometimes. in school back home when people know im colombian some just know when to relax and walk off instead of starting something. promote no war, promote no violence, promote beer, promote sex, promote candy
@...SumoSnipe:
No, it’s just a coincidence that they both taste like piss. We have Budweiser here too. It’s what you drink if there’s a special offer on a 24-can crate.
Joodles is kinda hot!
Ill eat both of those.
Yum = )
is that a picture of you on your shirt? 😛
@dekay
Pretty much! My hair’s different now.
i require oodles of joodles
I need to go to Ireland once before I die.
Cork didn’t have giant food people last time I was there.
I feel cheated.
that’s adorable!
When’s the wedding?
whats a two counter floor subway?
@Luke
The sub was only there for a couple of hours a day on a Saturday during the summer of 07.
@HoChunk
Soon…
@maxcw

kill it!
Dublin requires giant subs.
DAILY.
OM NOM NOM NOM.
@...thelotuseater725: the sandwich or the girl?
where iz hiz eyez
@Luke
Dublin don’t have no two counter floor Subway, that kind of shiz is reserved for the South Coast BAMFs in the real capital…
@ColumbianMonkey
Hiz eyez are where his eyez ar. There’s a see-through mesh there.
that is awesome. technology these days wow.
Quiznos>Subway
@...joodles:
But Dublin has a big spiky metal thing. Therefore, we are the winners.
Ok, ok. I’ll grant you Michael Collins. Cork has at least one thing in its favour.
Also, we haz the gub’ment, and also a really fuckin’ big shopping centre.
Hit it I would.
@Luke
Just looked up Michael Collins on wikipedia, I didn’t know he was from Cork…
Shopping centres are the same everywhere – hell on earth unless there’s free food samples.
@...joodles: I wouldn’t know about this one; never been inside it.
Cycled around the car park once, though.
And yeah, he was from Cork.
But you also killed him in an ambush.
So it cancels out.
At least we didn’t let the British burn down our city. We did that ourselves.
teh romans also
@Luke: Please take note: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN1WN0YMWZU .
The Romans didn’t even bother with Ireland.
Those bastards.
@...joodles: That’s exactly what I’d expect someone from Cork to do.
Because that’s…what people do….when they’re not from the real capital of a country.
?
Also, to do the @...[name] thing, just click the arrow beside the line above the message you’re talking about.
@Luke
I’m a girl, I can’t use any form of code, and so what if the name isn’t a link. I’m not from Cork, just here for college.
S’just helpful, is all. And it’s not a code. It’s…click the arrow.
Click.
So where are you from?
@YerMa
Starts with an L, ends in a imerick.
@...joodles: I have no issue with Limerick.
It has an Olympic swimming pool.
that That Mitchell and Webb Look – Football shit from that youtube link sucked balls. I mean it’s clearly soccer they are talking about not football. Idiots!
That’s some mighty missing the point there.
And this whole time I thought Ireland only had restaurants that served Lucky Charms and Guinness beer…with clones of Roma Downey as waitresses…
@...joodles: Missing the point is what MCS is all about! 😀
@...Drew: Soccer is football. You’re thinking of handegg
@...Snarky Parker: I’ve never even seen a box of Lucky Charms.
@...Snarky Parker: Lucky Charms are american, we don’t even (thankfully) have ’em here, not that they are bad but it really would feed into that damn stereotype much more if we did have them.
Yeah Ireland is pretty much the same as America, except it’s greener cause it rains more, we have different accents and we start drinking at a younger age.
Much younger.
¶And there are no guns in this country.¶
I crack myself up sometimes, really, I am a card
A CARD, I SAY
I’m from Limerick believe me we have guns.
¶ is the sarcasm symbol
Because I’m not good at sarcasm.
Needs more beer, whiskey and Catholicism. 🙂
I once was a man from Nantucket.
whose lolrus said, “where’s my bucket?”
@joodles,
If you get a chance, try a local beer made there in Cork called Beamish.
And here’s a limerick for you.
There was a young man from Grants pass
who’s bollocks were constructed of brass.
In stormy weather, they’d clang together and
lightning would shoot out of his ass.
Beamish is disgusting.
Limericks have nothing to do with Limerick.
Id Hit it
id smash a few orgasms from her pert form
I’m confused as why this thread gets 51 comments?
Most of them don’t seem to be about the girl so I guess that’s why I’m lost.
The huge quart is huge
@...RSIxidor: I lost?
and fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fapfapfapfap
@...jayarmstrong: Beamish is the filth overflow slop of McArdles.
Go to jail. Do not pass go. Do not drink good stout.
*Ale.
God, why am I such a failure.
I think it’s RSIxidor’s fault, let’s lynch him.
Beamish IS a stout. It’s what you drink when you can’t afford Guinness or Murphy’s.
@...LukeV1-5: NO!, we could use him for something else. give him to me, me and FlyingMantis will know what to do because i have some friendship validation to start doing.
@...joodles: But McArdles isn’t.
Also, I didn’t know Beamish was a stout. My bad.
@...joodles: Except for that eerie way they’re spelled exactly the same.
@...[HoChunk] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limerick_(poetry)#Origin_of_the_name
That didn’t work, for three reasons.
Anyhoo… People from Limerick aren’t known for Limericks, not in Ireland anyway. We’re better known for our violence.
From the full link:
“The origin of the actual name limerick for this type of poem is obscure. Its usage was first documented in England in 1898 (New English Dictionary) and in America in 1902. It is generally taken to be a reference to the County of Limerick in Ireland (particularly the Maigue Poets), and may derive from an earlier form of nonsense verse parlour game that traditionally included a refrain that ended ‘Come all the way up to Limerick?'”
So they have SOMETHING to do with it.
Violence? Hey, I’d be pissed off, too.
The violence thing means people don’t mess with you. It’s generally a good thing. A friend returned to her car to find someone trying to break in. The guy held a crowbar to her face and asked “where are you from?”. When she said she was from Limerick, he scampered off.

To some folks, having a well-balanced personality means having a chip on BOTH shoulders.
A Om Nom on both yer houses…. So Beamish is Irish for Budwieser?
@...SumoSnipe:
No, it’s just a coincidence that they both taste like piss. We have Budweiser here too. It’s what you drink if there’s a special offer on a 24-can crate.
