There was a post a while ago about losing “Irishness”’and it’s seems that every time it’s a person annoyed at their perception of “Irishness”’going away.
This weird chef is right, of course. Every country that doesn't have a religion-specific call to prayer on the national public broadcaster inevitably descends into tyranny. Those bells keep our democracy safe!

And, well... a) Badly, b) Nothing and c) Been a fascist-enabling spiv.

Had he called himself a disruptor within the dating space he’d be flown to San Francisco as VC’s thrown themselves at him
Once you start dating more than seven people at once, it stops being infidelity and starts to become high anxiety farce. It also requires supernatural time management, patience and savoir faire, it'd be simpler to pick one lady and treat her right.
