the spire is 20 years old today here s some shots I’ve taken of it Tags:ireland 19 comments Does it have a cliché nickname if you’re a Dubliner? twenty years of being an eyesore Brown envelopes etc must have passed for that yoke to ever be built. Why not build something proper that tourists could go pay to go to the top off and would be a symbol of dublin/ireland. Nah let’s stick a needle thats has no relevance to anything historical or otherwise. Why? Does anyone know why the bottom of it always looks so shite? It’s like they started polishing it and gave up after the first day. 20 years? WHAT?! How did that happen? The row about building it was only in the papers 5 minutes ago. I know, cos I got them all faxed to me. Soulless piece of tat. Bring back the floozy. Why don’t they paint it rainbow 🌈 A monument to the city’s biggest industry. Nicely taken photos but it really is a fucking shite landmark. Nice shots It’s best moment was when it became a giant lightsabre and they honestly should put it back that way. I remember it passing by my house on some huge trailers on it way up to Dublin, was a big operation. Kinda typical that most people I know IRL neutral to mildly positive about the Spire, and everyone in /r/ireland is negative on it So much money wasted on a stripper pole with any strippers. Skydiver skewer. Twenty years later, I still think we could’ve done better than a metal pin. i didnt realise im older than the spire Wow *unzips* Leave a ReplyYou must be logged in to post a comment.
