Bring in a fat tax and she'll make up the 4 billion the govt needs.

Clearly there is a bit of mysogny going on.

Me, not being politically correct, I dont care. I care about funny.

I dont think I have seen a funny Mary Harney jokes, and while I dont like Your Ma! jokes, or I for One Welcome jokes - it is because they have been done to death. They potentially could be funny. First time, might even have been funny.

Mary Harney jokes are never funny. Just not. In here or in real life. In other words if someone comes into work with his free paper, points to a trapped whale in London, and says "What does dat remind you of lads" I try and leave before the fecker says the obvious punch line.

Because. He. Is. Not. Funny.

(true story btw).

You obviously don't get the humour. Your ma, harney, i for one ect. are not funny based on their own merits, they're funny because of their repitition.

What's funnier than coming up with a witty "your ma" joke is the prospect of a forum where the first response to every thread is a your ma joke, no matter how irrelevant it is. It's an exclusivity thing really, being someone who gets in jokes is nice, it strengthens your sense of belonging to the group.

Like atari jaguar, by itself it isn't funny in the lol sense, but it's still worth sticking into your polls for the overall concept of having it in every thread.

In jokes and memes are part of internet culture, you can rant all you want, but they'll never dissappear. I for one welcome them.....

We live in a country where the most unhealthy TD and someone who is childless is the Minister for Health and Children. If that is not a joke, I dont know what is.

Criticising her based on her physical appearance is not on.

If you are in the public eye, you are open to criticism - rightly or wrongly - for just about everything, including your size. That's just the way it goes.

The fact however, that she is the Minister for HEALTH however, goes some way to making this more of an issue - for someone who clearly couldn't give a f*ck about her own health to be presiding over the nation's health system, makes it a very questionable appointment indeed.

To be honest, if her size were her biggest crime, I would be quite happy with her, but the fact that she's failed to control the HSE in any shape or form is quite simply a huge failure on her behalf & a massive let down on the behalf of the nation.

Ah, in fairness .. some were good, like ..

Mary Harney's so fat that the only thing she can fit into in Brown Thomas' is the dressing rooms.

Mary Harney's so fat that , she measures 36 24 36, and the other arm is just as big.

Mary Harney's so fat that , her driver's license says "Picture continued on other side."

Mary Harney's so fat that , at the zoo, the elephants started throwing HER the peanuts.

Mary Harney's so fat that, she put on a Malcolm X T-shirt and a helicopter tried to land on her

Mary Harney's so fat that, she wore guess jeans and the answer popped out.

Mary Harney's so fat that, she's got more Chins than a Hong Kong phone book!

Mary Harney's so fat that, that when she walks backwardsl you hear beep, beep, beep.

Mary Harney's so fat that, she won't pose for photo, only posters.

Mary Harney's so fat that, she went to the cinema and sat next to everyone

Mary Harney's so fat that, she has to iron her clothes in the driveway.

I agree, though .. enough already with the fat jokes. Ffs people - there's a time and a place you know :rolleyes:

Her job is to run the health service, not set an example - that would not be relevant to her job, which is administration and management.

If it was an obese, ugly man running the health service, nobody would care.

Not that I don't dislike Harney and have made the odd crack myself, but the health angle doesn't wash. You may as well say every minister should be physically or intellectually commensurate to their office - that the minister for sports should be athletic; a finance minister should have a financial background (or even just a clean fiscal background, heaven forbid) or a foreign minister should be a polyglot.

While she is wrong to let herself get so clearly obese, it hardly detracts from whether or not she succeed in a high-level administrative job.

You may as well ban fat people from becoming doctors, surgeons or nurses.

Bob_Harris · 10-11-2009 3:45pm

Only the fat defend the fat.

Dudess · 10-11-2009 3:47pm

Well I'm a 48-year-old, 35 stone virgin living with my mother... so yeah.

Seriously, Harney was actually quite pretty when she was younger - saw on Reeling In The Years. But she was also fatter.

Blazer · 10-11-2009 3:50pm

It's simple thing...being fat is a sign of a weak willed person.
You can trot out all the usual excuses...it's my thyroid, my glands, my 5 chocolate cakes a day etc etc..but simply put all are treatable if you get off ur fat ass and make the effort. I know i did.
If a person can't respect themselves how can they expect others to respect them?

Fat people possibly defend Harney, and people who think fat jokes are boring, and made by very stupid unfunny ****.

Shes fat, get over it. Fat jokes are for 6 year olds. Or Pat Kenny.

Winston Churchill was hardly a renowned salad dodger. I don't think it would be correct in saying he was weak willed.

And what about people who smoke and drink, or people who aren't fat but are extremely unhealthy? Would you include all of those in the "How are we expected to respect them category"? That's a hell of a lot of people your crossing off your "respect" list.

I had just assumed that she was born without an anus and that over her 127 year or so lifespan she was just.... filling up..

Wow.. She is just fat.

[Edit] No more posting in this thread for me.. It's not even challenging.. and I'm just sticking to the fat jokes so far, Not a word about her disgracefull political career and choices.. Insulting that woman is easier than stealing rocks.

Hootanany · 10-11-2009 7:03pm

I was always told not to go out with a girl thats arse is bigger than your Television 50" Plasma am i borderline should i or is she just Fat

caseyann · 10-11-2009 8:13pm

Why do you care? Or is it the jokes are driving you mental because same old:D

But i dont agree with calling her fat not right to insult people on how they look because can hurt others who are larger ladies and men.

I do not mind any one calling her other names that suit her nasty personality though.

no, because she actually is a fat useless cow that deserves the 3 b's - Beaten, Bullied and Burned.

she is, and only ever was there to get women voters. before ppl get upset at that you have to remember the sheer levels of ignorance involved in the electorate and yes, a big fat woman who is somehow in charge of health (the issue that is highest on the list of priorities for female voters) actually does swing voters. "oh look at her. she looks a tiny bit like me and gives the appearance that she knows what she is doing. ooohh and shes minister for health. i love hospitals and caring for ppl. shes got my vote."

if anything we need to be far harsher on the jackdaws in government. all they ever give off is the appearance that they know what they are doing. watch something like the excellent The Thick of It to learn more about how governments actually work.
