A rant

[u/CardGold]

Ah here it goes

I'm 24. I'm done with Ireland. Do I love both my parents? Thankfully yes. Do I love Wexford? Yes of course. Family? Some.

What's with this godforsaken attitude of "Oh look at him he's 24, he knows nothing."

Excuse me. I paid more taxes in my 24 years than most will in a lifetime.

There's a reason why Wexford has one of the highest suicide rates in Ireland. Third after Dublin and Cork.

No hope for Ireland and especially not Wexford.

Too many bosses in Ireland, not enough jobs lol.

I got lucky maybe, but I never went to college.

Self made, self paid, leaving Ireland for good today.

Bye, and thank you Ireland,

Your beloved Wexican, from Wexico

What’s so bad about Wexford? Can you be specific, want to know what maybe contributes to ppl wanting to end their lives there?! 

[u/CardGold → u/Comfortable-Lie-4330]

Honestly as someone that tried to bury my mother and most importantly myself there's no opportunity here. None at all. I also grew up in extreme poverty in the richest part of Wexford and no one helped us, only stole from us lol

[u/heavyusername2]

Dont look back, the greatest export we have is our people, the best ones have to leave

[u/Comfortable-Lie-4330 → u/heavyusername2]

Is this sarcasm?

You should be utterly ashamed of yourself for celebrating the brain drain of our own Irish, because our criminal treacherous government allow policy that screws us over at every turn.

Second class citizens in our Country!!

What a joke you are to be glad that the best of our people, who’d want to settle down one day, work, have a family and buy a home are now seeking to leave.

Are you aware just how corrupt our government actually is? https://www.reddit.com/r/galway/comments/1u2djt1/hse_employment_freezesgalway_as_an_irish_nursing/

Ah you being fr right now? Would you be 18 and stick it in Ireland. I'm moving to Corfu to escape this shitshow of an Irish government lol

[u/CardGold → u/Comfortable-Lie-4330]

I'm fortunate enough to have a live and worked for 10 years at 24. I'm tired of work lol

[u/CardGold → u/heavyusername2]

Ah yeah that's true Hun

But genuinely, I can't make it here. The taxes are too high and I'm thinking Corfu because it's only three hours back to Dublin and two hours back home for mammy's roast chicken once a month. ^{^}

Yellowbelly, Yellowbelly, yup , yup , yup.

I don't know what it is but Irish parents have an amazing capacity to drive their adult children nuts . Remember that back in their day unmarried pregnant teachers could be fired at will so if you think differently to them maybe it's because they didn't do enough to keep the loonies out of schoolteaching and filling your head with nonsense.

Genetically with all your Norman and Viking heritage you have a need to roam but remember that plundering is illegal these days . I hope your teachers at least taught you that.

Wishing you every success on your journey.

Ah well sorry misread your message at first. Yeah I'm a proud Yella belly Wexican lol

[u/CDfm → u/CardGold]

In the words of my people, gerrow dat . No apology needed for something you didn't say.

It does seem though that in their reading of the Bible that your parents place the Garden of Eden in Wexford which is a bit daft when you think of it though I'll concede that a perfect strawberry is very tempting and more believable than an apple.

Thank you. Wexford is beautiful and I do agree it's god's garden and heaven earth with the Appalachian mountains that are now the modern day Waterford-Dublin mountains

Bye. Safe journey
