@dave2806 uneducated irish filth? you speak as if that drastic misnomer you just typed was a common misconception. Were the works of shaw, stoker, yeats, wilde, swift, beckett, Joyce etc. all considered jokes? or were they considered to be minds capable of producing works of more literal value than anything ever cranked out by a dirty crooked toothed colonial brit? "uneducated irish" more like pompous arrogant and hopefully soon-to-be-annihilated ENGLISH CUNT!
