OVER ON REDDIT Ireland one user has posed the question:

The positives about living in Ireland, what are they?

The thread has generated a good deal of chat, as well as a comprehensive list of the good things our island has to offer, posted by Redditor No Woman No Fry.

The list includes:

Lots of green fields and trees. Nice scenery
A lot of hi-tech investment from software companies
We can flush toilet paper
Workforce is well educated
Ability to get to the coastline in a sane amount of time
Most people have a great sense of pride for our country

That last point is illustrated with this video:
