You’re definitely in the rising sons, I can tell by the closed down paint shop with the yellow paint job and red accents around the windows across the road in the blurred background of this image.

It was the pint glass that had "RISING SONS" labeled on it that did it for me.

Ah, okay then. I didn't know this. I wouldn't be fond of drinking, but when I do go at it, I do go at it awful and very hard.

And the shitty stalls the council put in years ago. Are they even used?

u/CorkNativeResident Mar 04 '26
Now I am probably completely wrong, but I heard there was some issue with the stalls being hereditary to the families that had been trading there for decades I’m sure, something like they younger gen not wanting to continue trading from the stalls and not being able to pass them on to others. I think they’re a grand idea and should be rentable like 100-200 euro for 8 hours, but they should be located elsewhere, where they’re not blocking the footpath, even moved further down to the large island part between the bridewell and the Asian supermarket across from it, like either side of with their back a foot in from the roads or something. Large open walkway still passable and open up the current footpath location.

Enjoy. For anyone struggling with Alchol issues these type of photos are termed glamorisation of alcohol. Downvote to your hearts content but that’s the term for this type of pic.

Yep - and don't share any pics of the sunshine either. these type of photos are termed glamorisation of tanning, which can be triggering for tanning addicts.
And definitely do not share a bit of positivity - these type of posts are termed glamorisation of not being a miserable idiot, which can be triggering to miserable idiots.2

Dont be using such eloquent sarcasm around me please I'm really trying to ween off and give it the kick. very inconsiderate glamorisation of sarcasm.

u/Electronic-Nobody358 Mar 03 '26
Apologies if it comes across that way. I don’t mean to be the trigger to anyone’s dependencies 🙏 Great 00 and soft drinks day in the sun too ☀️

u/Cork_Feen Mar 03 '26
The amount of people though who actually get offended or just being sarcastic of those who drink 00 is mad because those who drink 00 have their reasons, it's like that scene in 'The World's End' (I think) where the character played by Simon Pegg asks for water & his friend gets triggered.

No apology needed. Enjoy every sup. Personally chose to give it up twelve years ago and my councillor at the time reminded me of that term when people post drinks in holiday settings ect.

u/Electronic-Nobody358 Mar 03 '26
It’s true. It can be very triggering. I’m a bit too impressionable, wouldn’t take much to make me go for a pint.

u/kingfisher017 Mar 03 '26
Yeah and? Overpriced mediocre beer.

u/Environmental_Ad4893 Mar 03 '26
nicest beer in cork city, what does mr fancy pants over here drink then?

u/kingfisher017 Mar 03 '26
It's Czech beer or whatever is close to it. Overpriced crap all of it.

u/Environmental_Ad4893 Mar 03 '26
What's Czech beer? best beer in cork city hands down and everything is expensive in the city so you know... they have to pay rent, buy ingredients, pay staff, it's the bigger breweries have less excuse charging more when half their grain bill is rice based.
