Default You - You are not your normal Irish man.

On last nights HL show, Chris said to Conner, because he liked him "You - your not your normal Irish man." I wonder what he meant by this and what is his general opinion of the Irish. Or - What is a normal Irish Man?

It was a weird conversation. I don't think even Chris knows what he meant. And someone added "I've never met anyone from Jersey." Yes, they are all equally rare and they all have some sort of odd connotation: pornstars, the Irish, people from Jersey... :/

Actual racism is forbidden, so I suppose BB put it down to being a silly faux pas. Especially since he did indeed follow it up with the unlikely implication that he was well acquainted with porn stars in general ...

I do wish Conor had asked him what he meant by that, it would have been interesting to see what he'd say and watch him squirm a bit

I think he meant that he wasn't the sort of guy to bomb a load of pubs on the mainland.

Oh actually someone did say (about Sara) that they thought it was just her Scottishness that came out

and they said they thought that's how most people acted in Scotland after having a drink.

Can't remember who but think some one said it, but may have been here before anyone starts complaining about it.

Anyway whoever said it is bang out of order. And I didn't comment on it before because it only shows their stupidity at saying it anyway.

Because I'm Scottish I found it particularly out of order though I am against the stupid stereotyping and generalization of any race or nationality.

I don't like Sara though,largely because she is a Royalist, which shows she is thick I think ( I mean it's pretty damned obvious the institution of Monarchy had to be created some how in the first place.

And pretty obvious it was created by their ancestors being the leaders of larger gangs than their neigbours had and going around robbing the neighbors land to build bigger territories for themselves and their gang as they did and murdering their neighbors and their relatives to get the land off them.

I mean if an ordinary person and their gang were to go around robbing land or property and murdering the relatives of the property holders would you or anyone else accept them as heads of state or accept paying homage to them.No you wouldn't.

You'd see them as robbers and murderers as is how the ancestors of these Royals should have been seen.So I'm against her for that but mainly because she was forcing her Royalist sheepish beliefs onto people when she was drunk and she even voted against someone for having the brains and decency not to be a Royalist.

Sorry if it seemed like I was forcing my anti Monarchist beliefs onto people, it's just Sara's stupidity forced me to come out with it.

I'm, Scottish but I was embarrassed she was when she came out with that garbage which she's just spouted because she's been told to say that by our papers and tv the f cretin.

There was no need to generalize that all Scottish people behave like that when drunk or wed all have a temper though.Maybe seems like I have here but ffs I've put up with years of cra* about the Royal family and we've had a lot of it forced on us on tv recently even when we trying to avoid it like mad and Saras BS mouthing off about them like a sheep because of what she's been taught to say in the press and tv was the final straw.

Woah your pretty fiery there dont be so angry!
My missus is scottish and she has a hell of a temper on her but she doesnt get offended by the generalisations that sometimes get thrown around because she agrees with them.
Thats all they are generalisations and a lot of them loosely have a grounding in truth.
u would have to be pretty daft and over sensitive to think that some people thought everyone fits the description.

Yawn. Knew I'd get that.

That someone would reply and say it was because I was angry.

Maybe a bit (but ffs we have had the Royal family forced on us a lot recently and anyone who realizes it's based on murder and land robbery to begin with wouldn't think it was v good their descendants were head of state due to it or that they are meant to be looked up to).

I'd just had enough with all of it forced on us so much recently even when we're trying our best to avoid it as I did, that Sara's stupidity and repeating what the media have told her to believe about it was too much.

What isnt based on murder,land robbery and war when it comes to any nationality?
Its not my doing and i certainly wouldnt let a comment by some fame ***** on a reality show get me worked up.

What seemed most eerie was that he evidently expected Conor to take it as a compliment. If the key word had been "black", "Jewish", "gay", "Asian" etc. (or possibly if Chris did not come across as so perpetually dimwitted) then I would think that would have been a diary room summons at the least.
