not yrs personally dmac

but im saying everyone was killing each other in order to grab lands and a consequence of this was a lot of pillaging, murdering and rape, and the turkish were one of the most fiercest warriors that were a huge threat to a big part of europe

i have read that while the turkish were successful in the eastern side their military degraded as they reached the british isles

disparaging darragh's sexy stewards-of-the-land ancestors as violent conquerors, unconscionable

mh, Monday, 11 December 2017 20:50 (eight years ago)

well if u'd read the article you'd realize it was talking about farmers and not rape-happy conquerors

"everyone else was doing it"

lol dmac it's a little more complicated than that

farmers wld not have the capbility to travel such length in such vasts numbers

a lot of europeans have turkish dna but that is a product of how genetics/aleles work, so it is no surprise turkish dna is found in irish

it's like saying we come from africa

"The Irish genetic sequences are much closer to the modern polar bear," said study researcher Daniel Bradley, of Trinity College Dublin. "As the climate has changed, what we are seeing is the tracking of that climatic change in the sequences in the bears." [Real or Fake? 8 Bizarre Hybrid Animals]

also in the link that dmac posted i wonder what is the sample size of those 85% of irish men

if anything it shows that sample has the same y chromosome, though i still stand by my theory (yes it's only a theory) that it was originally spread through other europeans (not directly via turkish farmers)

Point of order Dmac has posted in WDYLL threads many times and he is not even as large as an adult polar bear, leaving aside the matter of ursine facial features

thanks fro the advice everyone

most people only get two options as they age: stay at a reasonable weight and slowly the facial plumpness of youth washes away with age and you look more skeletal,

i am ok with this option

hmm... well like i said i am allergic to most alcohol (all beer, all wine, i only ever drink at weddings or when i'm out of the country and then i get a jack & coke... i think clear liquor is the only alcohol that doesn't make my throat close up and fuck up my sinuses, but i abstain anyway, never liked the feeling of being drunk).

i eat a lot of korean food. and mexican food. avocados. no junk food except some candy. hmm... ok so maybe 1 bag of tortilla chips instead of 2
thank you everyone
i hope to age well, or at least into the skeletal option

Have you considered becoming a polar bear

Job prospects for polar bears are bleak.

layer of blubber essential for northern climes and winter months

mh, Monday, 11 December 2017 23:24 (eight years ago)

I have to wear 7-8 layers in the fall & winter here in the mid-atlantic. longsleeve t-shirt, turtleneck, cardigan, sweater, bigger sweater, hoodie, jacket, bigger jacket

flappy bird, Monday, 11 December 2017 23:26 (eight years ago)

get a scarf.

new noise, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 00:28 (eight years ago)

Hate scarves and gloves tbh.

scarves are pretty great for keeping warm.

new noise, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 00:34 (eight years ago)

That's less important to me than the fact that I find them annoying and never wear them, even though I've been getting a scarf for Christmas one year followed by gloves the next year for most of my adult life.

Action of Boyle Man Prompts Visitor to Stay (Tom D.), Tuesday, 12 December 2017 00:37 (eight years ago)

I have about 6 scarves in my flat somewhere. Gloves are useless because I always lose them.

However I do live in London, which is very rarely ever cold.

I'm not sure if this is a "controversial opinion," or if it's just unusual- it's not a challop, but I think that Vampire Weekend and the Smashing Pumpkins have a lot in common.

flappy bird, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 05:16 (eight years ago)

what is it about the blind shove, Neanderthal? because if it's about turning poker into Mario Party I have to disagree, that anyone might win a game that requires so much skill to win consistently is maybe my favorite thing about poker, frustrating as it may be

Florin Cuchares, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 08:06 (eight years ago)

Controversial opinion? Idk but: I think it’s weird when people claim to be Irish when they were born and raised somewhere else, and especially if not even their parents were born and raised in Ireland. No one says they’re British or English if they weren’t born and raised there. No one says they’re Australian or New Zealish if they weren’t born and raised there.

just1n3, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 18:06 (eight years ago)

it's about the struggle

or the troubles

that kind of thing
