Funny Moment of the Day (unless you're from Ireland)

 
 
Holy fuck this made me laugh.  To those who don't know, Ireland was eliminated in World Cup qualifying by France as the result of a goal scored after a blatant handball by international star Thierry Henry that the referees inexplicably did not call.  It is hard to explain the enormity of this kind of thing in any soccer mad country.  This Ireland fan did not react well to the injustice and shared his outrage with the world much to my amusement.  These are my people.

I would be 118% funnier and 267% more charming if I had an Irish brogue.

bloody fookin' marvelous.

of course, the irish are well adjusted to travesty and injustice. dealing with it is in the dna.

even when me da was angry with me, his brouge (small town western ireland, county kerry) made it musical.

he could take something as mundane as cursing and make it poetry.
