Proud city should forget about the handout culture
There's one in Paris as well, only ours is older and marshier. As for floods, Venice gets all the attention, but it is sinking, and even they're thinking of putting in an underground. We have as many hills as Rome without half the scooters or arse-pinchers.
We were eating olives in Cork before they had shoes in Dublin. Yes, we are Corkonians and we should be proud of that. Go on, ye boy, yeh.
OK, we have a lighting problem in Patrick Street. I have to admit it's not great, but we're stuck with it.
However, the worst thing is that Cork people think they can fall back on the 'aren't we all cribbers anyway' auld malarkey and everything is somehow absolved by that.
I am sick of it. Am I missing something, or why does everyone expect everything on a plate from Cork 2005? Change the record, lads. Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over yourselves. Even though I am involved myself (and I haven't even had an answer from Cork 2005), I wonder what's the point of culture?
Don't expect to debate this on the Where's Me Culture? pallet on Emmet Place. The skate boarders drown everything out - is this a sign?
