    "Do you come from a land down under
    Where women glow and men plunder?
    Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
    You better run, you better take cover"

    In Ireland it is pretty normal and people are curious about where people are from and if often used to connect with people as people will then say oh do you know xyz even if you said America or NY even though the chance of you knowing that person might be very remote…

    In many other countries, people would be offended if you were to ask where you are from up front and so early in a conversation and in a job interview this might be very unwise if it were seen to be a bias…

    As the saying goes, proceed with caution…

    Foreigners need to understand there's only so many "well, weather's shit again today" conversations you can have in a day so we need something else to talk about.
    "Where are you from?" isn't even something we use because we think you're foreign, as hell it's more useful if you're not since we have better odds of knowing a bit about where you're from for a bit of a conversation starter until we learn more about you.

    Everyone is from somewhere and it beats the alternative:
    "So how are your parents"? - "They died last year"
    "Any pets?" - "Had a cat, it was run over the other day"
    "Favourite food" - "I'm on a diet so can we please discuss something else?"
    "Hobbies" - "Killing conversations"


    Or of course could be crass and talk purely about their job: "What's the biggest, what's the weirdest, most disgusting, etc...."


    Gift of the gab only kicks in after the 2nd beer for most Irish and to be fair most talk an awful lot of shite but it gets a pass because everyone else is tipsy too.

    Love this - I have travelled worldwide extensively and made many friends. So, if I meet someone "non-Irish" here in Cork city (friendliest and welcome of places!) then with or without a couple of "Murphy's", I usually begin with the opening line of - " So - where's that lovely accent from" and always get an immediate response, as they more than willing to share this and genuinely appear to appreciate an interest in them and take it from there!!! Also, I recommend "Le Chateau" in Patrick's Street as a great meeting place - over to the "slanging" now!
