Is Sweden the New Ireland

And well you may wonder what this means... because I don't.

I'll explain. I pop into the 'politics' forum every now and again, and this struck my eye. Seemingly there have been several hundred (yes hundred) bombings in Sweden, and increasing every year.

I put up a replay saying that we've had zero 'bombings' in Ireland in recent years, decades if you are to include the Republic. So I asked could they explain the title of the thread.

No real response, and none from the OP of the thread.

So... I'm asking a favour here.. could my fellow Islanders bombard this thread, and either ask to have the title changed, or a reasonable explanation as to what it means.

Read the thread to see what I mean...

Thanking you in anticipation....

Your comment on that was 4 days ago. Why is it still upsetting you?

I think it's a stupid title but it's not really a big deal.

Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but completely inaccurate.

I saw the thread few days ago, I don't think it's in any way comparable and only a British person can come up with a thread title like this. I've no full picture of the swedish situation, but as far as I know it's gang war stuff.

They stole their surname system from us.

Loads of people dont realize, but Ireland invented the modern hereditary surname used across the world.

In England someone could be "Paul the Smith", if paul had a child, the child was not a smith, and lets say its name was carl, it could be "Carl of Tynee". Later Carl would grow up and be very tall and be "Carl the Tall".

Jesus did not even have a surname, he was Jesus of Nazereth. His dad Joseph The Carpenter..

Anyway even back when Jesus was being born in Ireland we had hereditary names. "Paul O'Brien", literally Paul son of Brien, the "O'Something" would only change if your dad became super important. So if your dad was Simon O'Neill King of Ulster, you would become Jack O'Simon.

When the vikings seen our naming system, they copied it exactly. Erics son became Ericsson. Thats why their naming system ends in "son" so much, it copies our system.

Also there is an old wives tale that people could sell the O in their name or the Mc for soup during the famine. This isn't true. The O' and Mc had fallen out of use due to record keeping, they wanted to store O'Brien under B, and O'Neill under N, and O'Shea under S, and the "the Smith" under S. If you go through army records at the time, the army was full of people with O' and Mc in their name. O'Shea family name dropped down to something like just 100 in the whole country there were all Shea, none of them sold out for the soup, just when we got independence it became fashionable to put the O back, and all the sheas became extinct as they all put the O back.

For more Irish history nuggets from me, listen to my podcast, "Did he just make that up, I'll google it now".

That’s a load of ballcocks....

I suppose by your reckoning if Enzo Ferrari’s ancestors had landed in Ireland ‘Vinny Smith’ would have developed a line of desirable sports cars...
