Ok, not going to Alaska. Because we Irish can't control ourselves when it comes to drinking, apparently, and I'm not over the legal age for your ridiculous country.

	yeah we suck and we've decided that 21 is when people grow brains. but we all know thats not true. it takes AT LEAST until 30 for that to happen. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Good job people don't need brains to be sent off to war though. That could really cause problems for an administration. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	yeah we love our soldiers brainless. we seem to get a lot accomplished that way. brainless soldiers listen to brainless leaders. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	*drinking, sorry. Typing with one hand. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-08 06:42 am UTC (link)
	Obviously, but it's them that wouldn't let me go over because they didn't trust me. I didn't even plan on drinking, I'm sick of it. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	oh, but the ways we underage "kids" can find alcohol...I think it's really kind of developed into an art form. But yeah, it's great that I can't legally drink but I can legally go kill people (and get killed). (Reply to this) (Thread)

	If they'd planned on going to the Yukon it wouldn't have been a problem. The Yukon is much better than Alaska. Is that a cover of the George Harrison song? A Japanese cover? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	A ukulele cover. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I certainly do, but nobody else has heard of them and I ain't going on me own! (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-11 09:11 am UTC (link)
	I'm kinda in the same boat but I think two of my friends might come. If you're still stuck, I'll definately be going, so drop me a line. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	jennytree 2006-01-11 09:23 am UTC (link)
	Indeed, indeed! My friends have never heard of these vaguely-related-to-Pearl Jam-bands. I went mad when Mudhoney were playing and all I got were blank expressions! Feckers! (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-11 09:24 am UTC (link)
	Shouldn't some of the Pearl Jam Appreciation Society want to go? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	They've all magically disappeared! I did see one of them yesterday, but besides scowling at him in the library for having the music volume up too loud (it was Audioslave though) and bashing into him at the vending machines, we don't communicate! Stupid societies! (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Who the hell hasn't heard of the Buzzcocks? Mudhoney I can understand, but seriously where do you find these people? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Dublin. Now you understand my bleak outlook on life maybe? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	I'm starting to. Although it seems like you should be able to find at least a few competent people in a city of 4 million. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	you seriously think this country is ridiculous? hah. and you probably haven't really spent much time here either, huh? then you'd realize how ridiculous it really is. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-17 01:54 am UTC (link)
	I've only spent a week or two travelling around. I suppose it's only the laws and administration I think are ridiculous. And the massive cars. And the over-eating unhealthy food. And the God-complex. And the insane capitalism. But that's it. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	123not_it 2006-01-17 02:27 pm UTC (link)
	but see, there's a reason for all of that stuff. -the massive cars are needed to cart around the huge people- a result of the over eating of unhealthy food. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-17 02:34 pm UTC (link)
	Not that massive, my introduction-lacking friend, not that massive... (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	introduction lacking? what? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	I was subtly asking you to intorduce yourself. This would usually entail telling me your name, and how you came to commenting on my journal. Of course this is optional, but it would be nice. My name's Conor. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	123not_it 2006-01-17 11:48 pm UTC (link)
	oh right. i guess that would only be polite... well it's going to sound weird but whatever, here goes.... my family is irish and i've always been into ireland and stuff so i was bored the other night and randomly decided to look for people in ireland to talk to. and that's my story. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	rubber_jojo 2006-01-18 08:52 am UTC (link)
	Ok, but if you want to talk to me on MSN Messenger or something about Irish stuff, you can. It's slightly more efficient that way. rubber_jojo@hotmail.com is my MSN thing. (Reply to this) (Parent)
