So i had no idea what this meant and googled it...

Quote:

The Blarney Stone (Irish: Cloch na Blarnan) is a block of Carboniferous limestone[1] built into the battlements of Blarney Castle, Blarney, about 8 kilometres (5 mi) from Cork, Ireland. According to legend, kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of the gab (great eloquence or skill at flattery). The stone was set into a tower of the castle in 1446. The castle is a popular tourist site in Ireland, attracting visitors from all over the world to kiss the stone and tour the castle and its gardens.

The word blarney has come to mean "clever, flattering, or coaxing talk". John O'Connor Power's definition is succinct: 'Blarney is something more than mere flattery. It is flattery sweetened by humour and flavoured by wit. Those who mix with Irish folk have many examples of it in their everyday experience.

blarney i has none

we all need to go kiss this stone then hehehe

... So a bunch of tourists have kissed this stone? Gross!

Hahahaha... we can scrub it well before smooching it!?!?

Can I blow it a kiss instead? x_o

i doubt that would work but you could try...
you should see the pics of people kissing it being upside down hehehe... now i know why your Afrodonkey is in that position [:D][rofl]

... That looks both gross and terrifying. [gonk]

and funny!!! hehehehe
Is eloquence that important really???

Eloquence is very useful. I only have it in writing tho!

you are lucky then, i wish i had it in writing...
i love stories!

I've actually been there! The little man that worked there (helps people lean, like shown here) told me that they like to pee on it after everyone goes home. [lol]

.. I'm pretty sure he was just trying to illustrate the concept of Blarney by being full o' crap, but it was still funny/gross.

Oh dear... we need something strong to scrub it then hehehe

that's really gross :x
but it's also kind of cute. like a rite of passage... kissing a pee-soaked stone.

I'd probably do it. XD

... That is absolutely gross.

I'm all for doing crazy things for the experience, but that's too much, even for me!

Hehe.

I think the gift of persuasiveness and all those things really go to those making people kiss it not the person kissing it. XD

i'd probably do it for some cash :p
i licked a parking lot floor once.. i can do this.

I've always gotten a kick out of that word.

I have not seen it in person but I have heard of it. And im one of those people that wishes to try and kiss it. I dont think I will make it, but I am willing to try

I am not sure I would kiss that stone.

i would like to go visit this place but i doubt anything can make me kiss it hehehe...

Agreed. I'll blow it a kiss, and that's all!
