Here in the south, we have people called Irish Travelers. They drive all across the south offering to do work but ripping people off. They live in isolated communities for generations, teraching their young how to continue the scams. https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/south-carolina/murphy-village-north-augusta-sc/

Yeah that’s them. Travellers is their preferred name these days but they used to work a lot with tin so they’re usually called tinkers (or knackers, mincs, magpies, pikies etc.) They’re an absolute scourge. There’s only something like 25,000 of them but they cause so much trouble. They’ve a big settled area down in Limerick and the locals have had to erect 15 foot walls around their estate to keep them out. They are also inbred as fuck cos they keep marrying their cousins which causes its own problems. They do absolutely despise faggots though, which is kinda funny.

Yes, I did read about them in modern Ireland. Article calls them a minority. Are they actually Irish?

They are yeah, although they got some sort of official recognition of their “ethnicity” a few years ago. Nobody really knows where they came from. People used to say they’d taken to the road during either the famine or the cromwellian invasion depending on who you spoke to, but genetic studies have found they split from the rest of the Irish population about a thousand years ago, so we really don’t know what motivated it.

Bearded ladies no longer a big deal. ...just ask the transfags at your local library kids reading events, if you don't believe me

That's right, I forgot about that, I guess because I can't read, so I see no point in using a library.

You mean the rainbow dido monkey?

I've had Persian, Cajun and Armenian girlfriends in my youth with hairy chests, backs and noticeable facial hair. Man. I miss that, I really do.

Likes 'em the way God makes 'em. That's me.
