Would you rather live in Ireland or Iceland?

Both seem very nice. Assuming language-knowledge is handwaved, Iceland, but otherwise since I don't speak Icelandic and it seems like a deeply difficult language to learn due to a general lack of Latin or Greek roots, probably Ireland. Voted Iceland, though; climate and general culture seem preferable.

Gotta go with Ireland....I have Irish ancestry, and Iceland seems too cold, LOL

It's still a Germanic language. Most languages would be much more difficult to learn for a speaker of English.

This forum is weird.

Yes, because Iceland's not winning.

It was when I made this post. Glad to see sanity has prevailed.

Yes, you'd likely sweat a lot in Ireland...

I mean in general, regarding the affinity for warm climates some of our more deranged members possess.

Cold requires dressing heavily. Dressing heavily makes one sweat. The only difference is that you're sweating into three layers of wool rather than into a t-shirt.

I'd rather live in a Johannesburg township than Ireland.

Calm down, Red. Not all Irish are the dreaded Cathlix.
