We spent some time partying with Bobby and his crew which made a pretty massive group of 11 total people at any given point. James, Dan and I had lunch with them at this place next to their hostel called Darkey Kelley's. Good food, not too crowded, and we learned a horrifying fact. Bobby's girlfriend Nicole uses a straw to drink a Guinness. This later got her almost shunned from the Guinness factory as it is a mortal sin. I almost couldn't speak to her for the rest of the trip. I managed to get past it enough to say a few words to her, but it was hard. At any rate, later that night we all met up and took our pack of 11 miscreants to The Temple Bar and hung out for the rest of the night. Good times and good friends; can't ask for anything more.

miscreants!! I take that as a compliment! Yeah the straw did not settle well through out Ireland. She finally decided to put her back to the bar before she used her straw at one small pub in southern Ireland.
Dud we straw drinkers must come together and unite!! It is 2008 - and i believe Mr Guinness himself would approve of this more modern way of enjoying a Guinness. It is quite simply barbaric to consume it any other way.
Looks like you are all alone on the Straw Drinking, crowbar!
