SWEATY O'DIPSTICKS

The Hairy Fiddle's more modern counterpart, and the template for the modern Dublin pub. This pub has to have a stupid `funny' Irish name, be cavernous and utterly like every other pub of its class. Loud and bland piped music precludes the chance of a decent conversation. Most natives prefer to saw off own legs AND eat own excrement than drink here but haven't much choice as every Dublin pub is like this now.
