I've spent a decent bit of time there on a few work trips. Never saw differentiation of eggs in supermarkets (or restaurants). Eggs be eggs.

A huge number of folks are just coming into non-poverty since the turn of the century so it would seem entirely plausible to me that chicken comfort wouldn't be a thing there just like it wasn't in the west until comparatively recently and still isn't for a huge part of the population.

Apart from that it's really very different culturally. They just view things through an entirely different (and interesting) lens.

Looks really good.

This one sparks joy.

OK, looks like it's probably Red Bull.

"Red Bull is a well-known energy drink originating from Austria."

I had to search this one up it's so bizarre. "Flavoured water" covers the following:

"Waters, including mineral and aerated waters, containing added sugar or sweetening matter, flavoured; other non-alcoholic beverages, not including fruit or vegetable juices"

So it's very broad really. Still bananas.

Ireland: Some secondary schools started back late last week. My own secondary level kids were today. Primary kids are this coming Wednesday.

Some days, I even think maybe I might be a good person too

You sound like a good person to me. That level of self reflection rarely / never leads to being a shithead in my experience.

Crazy story but a very interesting read. Thanks for sharing.

The mods were actually very clear about it in the thread. Pinned comment.

Fingers crossed!

I went to see it a few days ago and thoroughly enjoyed it and was glad I went to see it in the cinema.

The character development at the start is a bit rushed and that leads to the whole movie feeling a bit rushed IMO but overall it's a solid horror flick.

It depends. I have a ritual of watching a Star Trek series start to finish with my kids when they're around 10-12. Currently watching Voyager season 5 with my 10 year old and we do savour that intro occasionally but not always. I'd say maybe one in five times we'll watch it.

It's a long intro at nearly two minutes but it's such a good one. Great music, great graphics, super setting.
