Today, I bought an apartment over what I have just learned to be an Irish folk music store. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
SHUT UP
Today, my extremely loud and nocturnal flatmate phoned me to tell me excitedly that he got an accordion for his birthday. FML
Many such cases
Today, after spending about 5 grand on my home studio over the past year, I realized I have no musical talent whatsoever. FML
Today, after my annoying neighbor who used to spend hours playing the cello in the apartment below me finally moved out, I found out that I have a new musical neighbor moving in. This fellow plays the bagpipes. FML
Today, I discovered my neighbors have bought a karaoke machine. FML
Today, I learned that the building I just moved into contains both a drummer and an opera singer. Both are very dedicated to their craft, and practice frequently. FML
Today, after months of apartment hunting with my boyfriend, he told me he had found a fantastic place that was really inexpensive. It seemed way too good to be true. It was. He took me to a storage unit. FML
Today, I leave Ireland after a 5 month study abroad. Today also happens to be the day that the price of alcohol decreases by 30%, the dollar increases by 15% and the girl I have been chasing the whole time, to no avail, finally decides to show an interest in me. FML
My new house
Today, I bought my first house, blowing nearly all my savings on the deposit. I had left myself enough for just a couple of necessary bits of furniture. It turns out the previous owner completely stripped the house when he left, taking the oven and even the toilet with him, amongst other things. FML
Sorry mate, you're on your own
Today, I signed the lease for a flat that a mate and I decided to move into. About five minutes after leaving the renting agency, I received a text from my mate saying he couldn't move in with me after all. I am now the happy tenant of a large inner city flat that I can't afford. FML
Today, I moved into a lovely basement suite. Unfortunately, the 12 year old upstairs plays violin. She also plays baritone. She said she alternates each day. FML

here's what you should do . turn it into an exercise room, then after a good workout , sift your ball sweat (if noy pungent/ rotten fishy then exercise more) into a jar . sell this as premium Irish folk cologne and you are rich

Its a store, the instruments are on the wall and are not making any noise, every once and a while a customer might wanna come in and play them, but they don't make it very loud and can barely be herd outside of the store. YDI for being such a ****** about things.

Liars about the touristy crap that you assure everyone is authentic Irish. Then bitching because the tourists don't know the difference.
Dylan94_fml 8
Only shops and businesses do that 'cos they you know buy into all that crap and can make easy profits off of you guys ! Regular people hate it.

YDI for not checking all the facts before making that kind of commitment. I hope you enjoy gingerfied folk music.

gingerfield- cuz thats not racist at ALL
kybabyy 4
I said gingerfied. Not gingerfield. Unless this store is in the middle of a field of ginger, that would make much sense.

it's ok though cos most of us Irish are way better looking than #33 anyway

I'm part Irish, loves. One of my best friends is a red head- and 'red headed' doesn't constitute a race. Sorry, please try again. Get the sticks outta your asses, I bet it'd improve your quality on life a shitload. =3 P.S, you don't even have a picture up, Dylan. You're just coming off stupid.

I didn't say she was ugly, and didn't mean to come across as an asshole either, but she obviously tried to say shit about irish people so im just standing my ground.
OMGJASMiNE 0
ohh I see but she's irish too (x

You didn't flat out say '#33 is ugly' but you purposely insinuated it, so stop trying to take the 'oh I didn't mean THAT!' route. I'm not stupid. I wasn't trying to say shit about Irish people. You act as though 'ginger' is some kind of racial slur. It's not that big of a deal. At the chance of being redundant, I'm going to repeat myself- Get the stick out of your ass.

actualy, an Italian could kick an irish persons ass anyday

Yea yea everyone is part something when it suits them. And i wasnt trying to take any misleading routes with you, if I thought you were ugly I'd have no problem saying it. You obviously meant gingerfied as a negative thing, dont look like a hypocrite and act like you didn't.
kybabyy 4
I'm not 'part everything' when it suits me. Stupid. I could tell you exactly what I am. My mom researches genealogy. "Don't look like a hypocrite and act like you didn't?" How am I a hypocrite? I didn't act like I didn't call red-headed people ginger. Myabsolute hit the nail on the head- 'ginger' isn't some sort of racial slur to Irish people. It might be insulting to some red-heads, but most (that I know, at least) take it in a joking, unoffensive way. Also, do you realize you're arguing with a 16 year old over a made up word? =D
Dylan94_fml 8
Em dunno where you're from but almost every blonde I know complains about blonde jokes. And yea I did just realise that, methinks I'm starting to look foolish xD

Look at #115's response to #2, it's people like him that made me respond to your post the way I did :P
