Kinda getting sick of all these jokey random boards... Hoff, Mustard, Cake/Pie etc... in all reality they aren't really contributing anything...

Plus, if there's a Norris forum, you'll have firmly sealed the coffin on the humour in that thing. It was funny when Conan O'Brien started doing it...two years ago. Stopped being funny when everybody on the internet did it.

All that proves is the level of mental health problems in this country.

Gerry Ryan should be removed from the gene pool.

I hate because he's just a typical(born with a silver spoon in his mouth)wealthy south dubliner with a "if i think it's good idea then it's a good idea"attitude,you'd think after listening to auld ones on that show for the past 20 years that he would have more common attitude but no he has'nt !

Every day he talks about his damm wife and kids,going shopping,holidays,how the kids are getting on in school,the traffic on his way to work today,basically about his life,sometimes i wonder if the show is for his benifit or the listners

Put him back onto the midnight slot that he had 20 years ago,or later.

I would have thought impregnating her several times over would rank slightly higher.

Flirting with SmugPig Ryan himself tops both of those.

For that reason alone, your request should be denied.

He's a sanctimonious, judgemental, overpaid arsehole and the fact that so many of the plebs in this country seem to hang on his every word, whether it be about his vasectomy or his opinion on the latest media story, speaks volumes about where we are as a nation.

Go and put your energies into something more worthwhile like requesting animated avatars or something...

Gerry Ryan’s radio isn’t really to my taste or anything, I don’t like him, but see no reason to passionately dislike him, it’s not like anyone is making others to listen to him.

Could anyone explain why one would appose a new board that would not really affect you directly or indirectly? Or possibly, could there be any enlightenment in how this would affect you directly or indirectly?

Is it like the mindset “how dare they go to church, I KNOW there’s no god/that’s the wrong god/I’m god etc”?

And if one of you lot post, or even could mod the board, you could inject a bit of your logic into any rant by Ryan's fans.

But at the moment it looks like there’s no support.

As penance for this you should be made to suck Twink’s toes (or possibly spend the night with Linda Martin).

the best thing Gerry Ryan ever did was be on Podge & Rodge, where he was told to 'FÚCK OFF!' I never laughed so hard in my life!

He was generalising just like he always seems to whenever I happen to hear it at work.
"Oh-hohoooho...people on internet forums? Sure they must all be spotty, bespectacled, social retards...oh-hohoooho" With humour like that he should put in for a spot on Liffey Laughs :rolleyes:

Get over myself? That advice might be a lot better aimed at the man in question...
