Things you were shockingly old when you learned

Most American Irish are more likely to have predominate DNA/family history that hails from the fjords, brits or the Nazis, you can't blame them for trying really.

Just seems unnecessary

It's absolutely necessary, compellingly so.

hes like an andre rieu michal bolton lovechild playing a mad max villain for a beauty pageant i dunno how you expect positivity

haaaa

haha

I hope someday you guys will come back to this thread about learning how indefensible it is to mock appearances like that.

Unless you're just talking about hair, clothes and fake tans. I'll criticize those choices but gently, unless the person is a raging anus and their hair, clothes and makeup choices reflect their douchery.

Like this stupid looking fuckhead

Have you heard of this American guy, Michael Flatley?

Is he known to be a bad guy?

looks p orange to me

rag will you go check why this tart is in todays news before pissing and marming pls

also yes his appearance is both a dedicated choice (fair enough) and totally reflects his douchery

the cunt looks like he is auditioning for season 2 of The OA in that pic, and doesn't seem suitably muscly + lean enough to be a proper dancer.

Me + my bro were press-ganged into Irish Dancing lessons for a couple of weeks in '80. Until it was realised there were expenses for ridiculous shoes and one of the instructors was a bit dodgy w/ kids and we were dreading every minute of it.

I found some anti-Trump firebrand called Daniel O'Donnell on Twitter, but sadly it wasn't my mum's hero.

who... who is this mans

he is the.... lord of the dance

a number of performers of his type are the real life version of your mother's warning that "if you keep making that face, it'll freeze like that"

he has this permanent smug half-smile eyebrow raise

andre rieu hilariously has this smug half-smile because he does it while playing the violin. now he's cursed to half smug at all times

Was Riverdance/Lord of the Dance so long ago that people are now not knowing who this guy is? GOd, how old am I.

i haven't even heard another American talk about Michael Flatley since like 1998

if this doesn't ring every alarm bell on your douchetar, I dunno what to say.

I

I thought he was Irish tbh

He does all that Irish stuff!

Painting himself orange and prancing about like a tit for the amusement of demagogues.

Was the butt of silly jokes on both Friends and MST3K:

Have to admit I thought he was Irish too. Apols, The Irish.

that (apart from leap years) the calendar shifts one day every year - so since 1st of january was a sunday this year it will be a monday in 2018, tuesday in 2019...

On a related note, that the point of putting the clocks back in winter is so that normal working hours coincide with the hours of daylight.

a+ graphic

strictly speaking clocks go forward in summer rather than back in winter

[/pedant]

count me in the 'WTF Flatley?' cru

Is that wtf who is he or wtf why so mean or wtf why is he allowed to exist?

i walk like Roddy McDowall in chimp mode on ice

I got freebies for Riverdance at Radio City Music Hall when i worked 'on Broadway' and took my Ireland-as-leprechaun-land mom. It was a sacrifice.

Amazed Flatley is not Irish. So is my colleague, who pointed out while he'd never heard Flatley speak, he'd heard an impersonator taking the piss out of Flatley speak in an Irish accent.

I assumed he was Irish too, since he made his breakthrough as the interval act at Eurovision.
