We both know I swam here faster than you did My back stroke is simply faster than your front crawl Well, you cheated you and your swim jitsu Whatever we uh, we agreed that the competition wouldn't start until we were on Irish soil Well, here we are. This is Irish soil. So whenever you're ready. We can start but take your time I'm used to waiting for your back end to load Does does my back end look big in this? Wait a minute Come on. You really think you can find that pot of gold before I can You don't stand a chance I have grep Besides we both know that Drupal's front end is totally replaceable. I Don't need your silly twiggy femur powers. I can find another partner. You wouldn't dare Oh, yes, I would maybe I'll work with one of those those cool front front ends everyone's talking about I can hear it now coder and reacts, dude or or coder and ember man or Or coder and the mighty angular Even the name sound pretty good. Are you through yet you and your Decapitated Drupal headless headless, whatever. Let's just get to that pot of gold. You'd better hope I left some behind for you ready set Go where the pot of gold is exactly No enter an Irish Drupal community member aha a friendly local hello there friendly local citizen Hello Are you a real Irish person?

I just I didn't quite Catch it of course. I'm Irish What do you think I'm up here on stage for do you not like my volunteer shirt? For a second. I was worried. We wouldn't understand the Irish accent Don't you be worrying yourself about it? I think we'll be getting along just fine That accent really is amazing. Do all Irish people really talk like that? Of course we do. Sure. Isn't this the accent you hear on TV, isn't it? Guess so Well, I'm very happy to meet you. Would you mind giving me directions? No, no, no giving me directions No, I saw him first. He's giving me directions Boys, you won't be getting very far in Ireland with that attitude You know, there's an old Irish saying green birch on bohar. It means two people shorten the road Who you calling a short? Don't you understand? It means you need to work together. Good. Good. That's much better. Now What directions are you looking for? We're trying to find the pot of gold the famous pot of gold of Ireland You wouldn't be talking about the leprechaun gold pot of gold at the end of the rainbow Yes, that's where it is Does not simply find a pot of gold You need to catch a leprechaun and to do that. You'll need to work together Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the odd Rupals It's you Let's figure this out on a and with that the two mortal enemies pledge to help each other on this most Vital of quests as they struggled to come up with a master plan to catch a leprechaun trouble was brewing On another part of the stage Some people seem to bring trouble wherever they go Enter the professionally offended. I mean it. I'm so sorry. I wasn't trying to be mean Well, it is too late for that now. How could you even say something so insensitive? It's an affront to me and everybody like me only I didn't mean it that way I was just don't don't say another word. You only make it worse But I only asked if it was an iphone 7 You only asked if it was an iphone 7 only just because I'm from a smaller Drupal shop You assume that I'm stuck with the last year's model Well, I'm sorry We can't all work for a mega corp and have the latest model Some of us are struggling against adversity here And this tissue is so thin. It's just so thin. Yeah, this bluer. Say such a thing You're so insensitive Just because I I came here by bicycle and I could only carry Wouldn't play tissues. Did you mean it like that? But rub my nose in it That's not what I meant. I mean it really I can't work with this. You just full of nano aggressions nano aggressions Yeah, they're like micro aggressions, but smaller. Oh, come on. I was just trying to make it like seriously Excuse me. What's going on over here? enter a second irish Drupal community member I know what's going on like Gavin. How you doing? What's all the commotion? I've no idea Mike these foreigners are here looking for a leprechaun gold I thought I'd have a bit of crack. You want to take part? Well, it's too early to do much else Now you'll find these tourists understand a proper irish accent Perfectly well Just relax and speak as you normally would All righty then Well, I'm quite pleased to have such a wonderful group of visitors to the emerald oils Now what was all this commotion about? She was condescending disrespectful and insulting and no, you were insulting and you were also insulting Condescending and disrespectful And now calm down. There's no need for any of this. You know, there's an old irish saying It means Disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. Have you heard that before? No, well, well try and remember Sometimes people don't mean to be offensive people are complicated and cultures and personalities can clash Why most of the time you find this just an accident by otherwise well-meaning persons You might even find you like them Now shake hands or have a quick hug I'm really sorry that I was so hard on you. No, no, I'm sorry. I was hard on you I didn't I didn't I know you didn't mean it that way Thanks for your help. Where did that saying come from? Well, it's written in one of the documents You'll find is very important here at Drupal con Dublin. It's an ancient part of the Drupal Dublin Drupal con culture It's the code oh conduct The code oh conduct Wow, you know that code oh conduct might help us work together better Well anything to get to that pot of gold faster Hey, you guys can you give us a hand?
