9 Of The Most Brilliant Irish Facebook Groups You Need To Join

Facebook groups are a gift from God. Not only do they give you endless hours of entertainment, they're a place where you can be surrounded by like-minded people, whether you're a farmer from Cavan or a complete Aisling. We've had a search for the best of the best Facebook groups and found these gems:

1. OMGWACA

If you haven't joined the 'Oh my god what a complete Aisling' group, created by Emer Mc Lysaght and Sarah Breen, you're missing out.

5. Irish Farming Discussion Group

Love farms? Love talking about farms? There's no better group to do that than the wondrous IFDG, as those on the inside call it. They call about bull testicles a lot too! Yay.

6. Pintman Pintposting

Pintman became a meme after Publin.ie noticed a page in Kevin C Kearn’s ‘Dublin Pub Life and Lore’ book with the now infamous photo and description of Paddy Losty - "Some of Dublin's great pintmen have been known to put away thirty pints or more in a day". Since then, people around Dublin, Ireland, and the world have come together to celebrate the great pintmen aka raging alcoholics. Why not join them in this glorious FB group?

Gas description:

Just a page where Pintman can still be appreciated in any shape or form. Only rules are don't be a prick, no pictures of pints, and only using the photo of Paddy at the bar, no personal photos from his family's pages. Cheers and have one for yourself
