    Why are the drunks that walk by my window always singing Danny Boy?

    Last night it was like drunk choir practice outside. I suppose because it is a long weekend so they get even more plastered. Maybe it is a British thing but pretty much every single one that was loud and singing was singing Danny Boy. Everytime I have had a drunk on a bus they are singing Danny Boy. Is it because it is such an easy tune most people can get close to it even when they are off their heads?

        I doubt they are all Irish..not for a few generations anyway...though it is a British enough song, I guess

            yeah I know but being the close relations between the two it is a standard here too...largely with the older generations..though that doesn't explain the 30 somethings singing it drunk

                  here they wear American sports team hats but in the wrong colors..annoys me but I would probably get knifed if I pointed out the Phillies hat shouldn't be purple.

                          All gypsies should burn in hell, I hate them so much !

                          In Northern Ireland gypsies park their crappy mobile homes in industrial business estates and refuse to leave unless they are given large amounts of money
