It's a word that is fashionable to hate if you are a growling rightwing turd, my only issue with WOKE is that it doesn't appeal to my ear, people being WOKE gives me no problem and I say that as a feminist socialist who as our Aussie friends, the feckin' crims, would say believe everyone is entitled to a "Fair Go", no more, no less.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Oh and yes, we are BRILL. There are of course degrees of BRILL, we are not as BRILL as some, but hugely more BRILL than many.

EVIDENCE: a few years back when the AIs or 6Ns came around or when the squad was injury-stressed, we were capable of losing to mugs. Now as a certain Shannon supporter used to say of teams, we beat teams we should beat. I cite the case of 9 in a row against Embra as an easy example.

It may shock some dullards to know that in terms of points scored, we average less than 1.5 points a game less than Mexico over the URC. Some claim we have no backline, others that if the lineout drive was banned we'd be mugs. I hate DULLARDS. I suggest a few open their eyes and research things rather than listen to some idiots who are no more intelligent than themselves.

I'm occasionally tempted to come back here regularly and tell people what they should think, if I do it will be under the new moniker of:

"Mr. Stalin Knows Best"

We are not within an ass's roar of silverware, very few teams are. Don't let that skew your ability to reason that we are very much amongst the best of the rest. For me, thinking back to the dark days of SLogan, Kiss, the Liar Gibbes and similar enemies of Ulster, I find it hard to argue against the current incarnation as BRILL.

Only natural best wishes for those we love could ask for more.

Of course Leinster are the pinnacle.
That's Leinster with no silverware last season and one European Cup in the last ten years.

The lack of understanding that even if you are the best it doesn't translate to silverware escapes a few also.

Ach my friend one can't please everyone all the time. I assume being an anti-Wokist you would also ban abortion after 6 weeks and deny the elected weemin of Missouri the Right to Bare Arms? I regret it also seems possible you may hate the idea of the prosperity that a border in the Irish Sea AKA Don't bother yer hole checking stuff coming from UK, AKA who cares if a wee bit gets smuggled - or a huge hape. In the, pre-BReakfast AKA BRexit , wise words of Guy Verhofstadt the most workable solution to the NI Border is "a blind eye". Old Guy is no mug and as WOKE as Feck. >EW

Everyone has a different definition, it seems. As a hater of the left and the right, I welcome all terms of insult. It's amusing to see the right wing Brexit loyalists fold at the wokery of their beloved soft King Charlie.

Astonishingly genteel riposte from ye :flower: Why can't anti woke equal moderate?
Let's see;
1. No- current UK law is fine, but neither should the process be a cause for celebration. I'm assume you're talking about UK Law rather than the shambles of reversal of Row versus Wade which I disagree with. Counter to that abortion in the mind of some Yanks to point of birth ffs? Downs syndrome fetus aborted to point of birth in UK? Appalling. Woman's right to determination inviolate, I have issues with what I've outlined above. Surely reasonable.

2. I support the second amendment for Weemen everywhere to shoot abusive spouses. If youre talking about Row Vs Wade I refer you to point 1.

3. Green lane fine for me. Sure smuggling is a way of life at Cullaville and Cullyhanna- so a bit more into EU isn't going to make a difference and reduce the acid washings polluting every river in Louth.

4. Gee is as woke as Nigel , and both should be ignored. Business always finds a way, regardless of Dupers or Shinners

Word Dave :salut: Moderate middle ground of thinking conservatives and liberals seems oddly Nouveau given the polar extremes that call themselves left and right these days.
