The thread was sparked by a tweet concerning a foreign individual resident in Ireland who was rather perturbed by this usual Irish conversation starter, considering that he was still regarded as an "outsider". In truth, it was rather somewhat of a cultural misunderstanding, as most Irish people will simply be curious about an individual's background if they are so much as from a different town, and no national or ethnic disparagement is implied - thoughts?
