Legitiimately if you look up irish inventions(or least when they invented something like another culture independently) in chronological order they have a long list of inventions year after year, but then it hits whiskey and theres a 300 year gap before the next invention
This is legit hilarious I was wondering what my country (Belgium invented) So apparantly we're the world leader in discovering and synthesizing opioids and designer drug derivates...
As an Irishman, this is seriously offensive - it takes waaaay more whiskey than that to get an Irishman drunk! C'mon, Family Guy, I expected more from you.
Dixieladd it's called a stereotype, U might not have heard about them. I'm Scottish and I don't find any jokes stereotypical Scottish jokes offensive But u know, whatever edit: 3 years down the line; don't mind the autistic little dumbass here^
What makes that last scene even funnier is that after the invention of whiskey there was a 300 years gap where no inventions or discoveries had been made by the Irish. And finally when they got back to inventing the first invention was ROAD BOWLING which is likely a direct result of the whiskey. To be fair, after that they had a pretty steady rise in impressive inventions and discoveries.
Their close relatives, the Scots, invented and engineered a huge number of things during the 18th, 19th and into the 20th centuries, mostly after Presbyterianism pushed for temperance and then teetotalism (no alcohol, as opposed to Temperance, which was little to no alcohol).

As an Irish person I find this kind of crass inaccurate history of Irish people offensive. There isn't nearly enough whisky being consumed! 😠 Pure ragin'.
I often say that Hitler's worst crime was killing of tens of millions of people but, included amongst his multitudinous offenses was the effective emasculation of the German nation. Today Germany is a paper tiger on the global political scene. It may be rich and economically powerful but it is the lowest common denominator in international politics.
As an Irishman myself I like to tell people that Ireland was once the most advanced and brilliant country on the globe… until they discovered whiskey. YES, I did steal that from this show, but it always makes the room laugh. Especially other Irishmen.
+American Not American't An Irish-American, eh? How the fuck do you know what's accurate and what isn't re. Irish people? Here's something you also probably don't know, but us native Irish absolutely despise you lot. We hate it when you announce that you're Irish, we hate it when you want to trace your "roots", we hate the way you speak, we hate the way you dress, we hate your patronising attitude, we hate the fact that you fucks armed the IRA to the teeth so they could do what they did best (i.e. murdering innocent Irish people) and we CONSTANTLY make fun of you behind your backs. You're fucking AMERICAN. Accept it. Now kindly fuck off.
@@Mrpublicimagelimited take it easy he said he's of Irish descent not that he is Irish. And what's so bad about Americans holding onto the traditions and history of their family. So your sir can rightly fuck off yourself.

@Leezer00 it was a genocide. I know my history,yes the potatoes failed but there was plenty of food in this country besides potatoes. But we were refused it so we could be wiped out by the british empire.
Hybrazil was the technologically advance land. It sank like Atlantis and lemuria. It was a neighbor of Ireland. The tallest mountain part of the land still provides a little from the waters where Hybrazil used to exist. Hybrazil is/was smaller than Ireland.
So, the invention of the donnybrook very quickly followed the invention of whiskey. Makes complete sense. Donnybrook is a village just west of Dublin and was notorious for it's annual fair at the end of August. As a result of much drinking and fighting the fair, originally lasting 2 weeks, was shortened to 1 week and still later (mid 1800s) was discontinued completely due to the riots. Thus we get the term "donnybrook".
Considering they were about to convert the entire Irish people into pure energy, seemingly without the consent of said people, I'd say it was for the best.
Most drinks consumed in Kievan Rus' were alcoholic to some degree. In fact, Prince Vladimir adopted Christianity mainly because Islam prohibited drinking.
@@tommoore2012 Woah I didn't expect you to respond :o bless you. Whatever the answer is, it is a wonderful gift to have Orthodox blood in you and regardless after all my studies and as many across the world are discovering, it is objectively the original true Church.

In germany we had alcohol problems too, but we turned to a new hobby: war, and look how it turned out :D

It hepled us to forget our problems...(many of them created by alocohol) :D

Well the world still has a few good hundred... thousand... million years. So a couple billion years just to wait and see what we irish can do...
It fucked up my dad’s life for sure. His British mum’s mum was Irish.

Being Irish means that drinking and fighting are the cause of, and the solution to, all of your problems.
I don’t drink. This is a stereotype. 🇮🇪🇺🇸
Well, as the old quote goes "God created Whiskey to prevent the Irish from ruling the world."
Ah the Irish some of the few people who can still take a joke.
I dont think there was a time in Ireland before alcohol!

2. The Catholic Church .

Fun fact: the Irish invented whisky and then had no other notable inventions for 200 years.
Yeah but they didn't invent anything for 800 years before Whiskey either, the Irish just aren't very prolific inventors clearly.
