Either way, they could no longer afford it, so it is partly to get some sexual excitement out of making the booking and imagining that it could happen and partly out of resentment.
I have no idea if this is a fair idea or not, but there you have one theory that was posed to me.
An interesting take. Certainly, the Celtic Tiger changed people's attitudes, and not for the best. There was an unbridled arrogance amongst people (including the ordinary population) that made Dublin a very uncomfortable place to visit during this period.
Nowadays, I detect a heavy vibe of resentment and "tails between legs."
We live always underground
It's going to be so quiet in here tonight
A thousand islands in the sea
It's a shame
