Where are the Irish guys in Brooklyn?

So . . . you're NOT interested in Northern Irish but you're looking for Irish?
I think you should explain that.

Well, technically Northern Ireland is still geopolitically part of the UK, so there can indeed be quite a cultural difference.

Would you like them delivered to your house? ;-)

Seems like you are trying to order online - must be cute, young, accent that you like, nearby, etc.

<---preparing my order

Why are you scoping for dates with Irish guys... brooklynites, latinos and blacks are not your taste?

This whole thread is really wierd.....

Queen, you've confused me. You say that you skew "Unionist" but you feel it'll be a long time before that happens. I take it, then, that you support a united Ireland. FYI, a Unionist supports the union of GB and Norn Iron and a united Ireland is anathema to them.

The Fifth Ave stroll in Sunset Park . . .

I got a Mexican boyfriend at Commonwealth by showing him my Virgen de Guadalupe tattoo (it's on my ass). He bought me a drink and demanded my number. it was very exciting in a drunken, 'I'm such a shitfaced moron' way. He never called though, so I dumped him.

This thread would be alot better if it was about Australian chicks.

Or supposed gunshots, or chicken bones, or tight, tapered pants.

Gee, thanks. Now I'm hungry.

What on earth do you mean by 'Australian-American' if there's no Australian accent at all? Someone born there who moved here at a young age? An American who lived there for a while as an adult?

If you see a hat with corks, it's definitely a gullible American tourist lured into buying one at Circular Quay or Mascot airport, not an Australian or American-Australian.

If it's Australians living medium-long term in NY you're after, there are up to 10,000 new E3 visas a year since 2004, all of whom are professionals / specialists / business leaders at the top of their fields, filling jobs that the US workforce can't supply, offered better terms by the US govt. than to any other nationality, and better opportunities than in AU. A large fraction of them move to NY; it's now the #1 destination for top AU graduates, due to overtake London with its hoards of mostly slave labor Aussies on work/holiday visas. With middle to high incomes, they concentrate in Manhattan and brownstone Brooklyn. The genuine article is most likely stunningly gorgeous, live hard play hard, pragmatic, irreverant, independent, and robust for 500,000 miles without an oil change. There's quite a few sheilas in Prospect Heights; e.g. I know of a couple where the wife is a proprietor of a store on Vanderbilt. Last two bbqs I've been to round here I met girls who were Australian or had lived there for a long time. If you go to the Sheepstation on 4th Av any night, you'll probably find some, or stop by for a saussage roll and a Lammington at one of the Tuckshops in Manhattan.
