    Me. 19. In Ireland for a 2 hour layover to move onto Germany. I realize I can drink here. I go to the bar in the airport.

    “What can I get you?”

    “Can I get an Irish Car Bomb?”

    Yeah… they didn’t like that. I didn’t know anything about the terrorism shit! 😩

      I’m Irish and worked as a barman for over 10 years. I don’t know what happened to cause an issue with you but neither myself or any other bartender I worked with ever gave a shit about someone ordering a carbomb. We just made them and judged you for ordering a terrible drink

      Yeah I’m from Chicago and have Irish relatives, including an authentic McCraken (look it up). You ask for a Black & Tan over in the old country.

        I looked up authentic McCracken and nothing comes up apart from a couple linkedin profiles and baseball player Quinton McCracken. What did you mean by that?

          A quick search shows McKracken is a Scottish surname (wigtown, SW Scotland) that moved to Ireland in 1600s and is the surname of 1 in 223000. So… I’m not really sure what they are on about.
