A County Coogee resident has today delivered a firm verdict on a contentious issue.
Up in the Channel Country visiting a high school mate from Kerry who has landed on a job site out on Betoota Plains Development Road, Conner Sheehan has explained what exactly it means to ‘Split the G.’
“No like, it’s between the fucking Harp and the Guiness like,” said Conner, offering up a concrete definition of the viral term.
For those who drink the fabled beer out of Dublin known as Guiness, ‘Splitting the G’ has become somewhat of a recent phenomenon.
The premise behind the splitting of said G, is that the first sip taken by a drinker reduces the black line of Guiness down to a certain point.
However, which point that is has remained a focal point of heated discussion.
Some insist that the splitting is off the actual ‘G’ in the word Guiness, while others insist it is splitting the small area of space between the Harp and the top of the G.
While it technically makes sense that splitting the G would actually be half way down the G, local Irish man Conner says it’s actually not.
“No like, I know you Aussies are very literal like, but it’s actually just between the Harp and the word to be honest like,” he said.
“It’s fucking stupid to be drinking half your pint in the first sip if you ask me.”
The concrete definition has now settled the pub debate, which definitely won’t draw any negative comments on this post or death threats to The Advocate’s inbox.
A local schooner of Guiness drinker then tried to rightfully says something but was told to shut the fuck up.
