VIDEO: Why you should NEVER actually take Irish people literally

One of the many things an Irish person living abroad will come to realise (aside from how nobody seems to be able to comprehend the pronunciation of 'Caoimhe'), is our sarcasm can get us into trouble. 

Our unconscious obsession with irony can often lead to some unfortunate miscommunications and misunderstandings. 

Foil Arms and Hog have managed to sum up pretty much all of these awkward encounters in their latest video, and we love it. 

We recommend using this video as an explanation the next time the cousins from America come to visit and need help understanding what exactly the craic is all about.
