damn that's a good nephew

you can tell that if only he had the words he'd be bellowing 'poch out!'

i think he knows french but can't get it out yet

oh my vmic indeed, definitely a mac

vmac, if you will

(i can deindex the thread if you like)

i dont think anyone knows him by his internet name just yet but ty

cool nephew

i always like those shirts (or onesies?) they put babies in and wish i could have one. v basic.

its a v "tenured professor idgaf" look imo

a wrap is kinda the closest youd get, i aspire to wearing a print pattern wrap to work one day alsov

i met the little maneen he seems easygoing enough

is this a brother of the unicorn girl?

i love that little mac nephew, he’s a corker

it’s my understanding unicorn girl will be playing the role of bossy older cousin

my dad sent me a picture of a 1911 census page showing my great-great-grandfather michael's family, including my 7 year old great-grandfather michael. my grandfather, father, and brother are all michael. i emailed back i wonder what great-great-great-grandfather's name was? and my dad said "pete." LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well the run had to end somewhere

bet he was peadar rly tho

my dads sister got the same census page printed for them all when it came available a few years back and he opened it in the house i was renting in dublin at the time. the family address for the census was three doors away!

anyway in the same trip home they discovered (tho apparently twas an open secret on the island) that the child in that census- my granda- was left to them by his mother as she was sent to mericay in disgrace. he was raised by his uncle and wife as their own, they being childless themselves.

when they moved back home and he inherited the land, the cousins (otherwise in line) never got over it and scuff up the right-of-way to the pier to this very day.

anyway, michaels all the way up in my lot too, until a pj who ran the smallest licensed pub in the country on the island in the late 1800's according to the sign still in the shed down home last i checked.

he was probably not pete, that was my dad's dadjoke. it said michael the elder was a "shopkeeper." i wonder what the shop was. it was limerick, they must have moved at some point because i think my grandfather was from clare. we gotta do a thing like they do on pbs where they showed bernie sanders and larry david were cousins and find out we are cousins but that isn't so hard in ireland i guess, the west virginia of countries

redundant to do so

the part of my surname after the mc is the first name of the donegal chieftain whose surname you share

this is iirc, ofc

you are correct

we're cousins

seems clear

happy deemsday iirc

happy deemsday, mr. president

OH! happy day!

deeming this day deemsday feels appropriate

happy birthday dear deems

trouble ahead
trouble behind
mikey joe you better

The nightmare of Mikey Joe

my brother is mikey joe. well, he is now.

gordie and dingle are investigating the incident.

Ah see now that is interesting

Because the hnnngordie pronunciation is sheer Montrose speak, pure RTE and never actually heard in the hnnnnwild

But paschal takes it to hnnnnextremnnnnes

But the boys up the hill, yeah I know fellas talk like that my age- not the exact accent even, but the staccato bursts of suddenly-released furious nonsense.

Dingle was always Dingle but they made it into dingle-an-dangen but there was a revolt and now it's just Dingle again

I was there only last week and it's about as beautiful as we have, but obv the bucks staling the yos would be a concern in terms of a sandbox retreat there

we just need a good dag and some moonshine night

Maybe a fella with a truck waiting for us but lookit

whoever's doin it knows what he's doin

can be done about it nothin?
