    "He has the Grip of the Badger" when i first heard it I thought of chinese samurai movies, but apparently it's an old irish saying, something to do with tenacity.

    Atari Jaguar was a console that was released years, and years, and years ago in a bid to compete with sega/nintendo and the rest. Failed utterly if memory serves.

    I'd guess it's a joke of some kind, like the whole Chuck Norris/Mr. T thing, why put something completely obselete into a poll it has absolutely no relevance to? Because it's funny that's why.

    Sort of like raping a clown

    we all know what it means though!

    "He has the Grip of the Badger" .
    I have heard badgers bite and keep applying pressure until they hear a bone break. People would put sticks in their wellies so the sound would make the badger let go
    Atari Jaguar was a console that was released years, and years, and years ago in a bid to compete with sega/nintendo and the rest. Failed utterly if memory serves.
    It did fail but was the first "something" bit console out there, a fact often overlooked by sony/sega/nintendo marketing people who would list their machine as the first with "such n such" when really other consoles had it first. I think it just pisses off people that it was ignored. Whenever polls are up people often request obscure things to be included.

    As pi$$ed as a granny's matress
    As thick as bottled pig sh1t
    So hungry that you would eat a child's arse through a wicker chair
    In and out like a fiddler's elbow
    The curse of the seven snotty orphans on you
    Smart as a horse and hung like Einstein
    As ugly as a bag of spanners
    As awkward as a bag of hammers
    bad cess to ye
    may the wind at your back always be your own
    grinning like a waanking jap
    He would drink pi$$ out of a hooer's boot
    A face like a bulldog licking pi$$ of a nettle
    A face like a bulldog chewing a wasp
    So mean he would peel an orange in his pocket
    So mean he would take a cigarette out lighting
    As cute as two hooers

    "A cute cork hooer and a mean cavan bastard..."
    "Jaysus I'm that hungry, I'd ate a horse..."
    "Grinning like a cheshire cat..."
    "Ya wouldn't back a tractor..."
    "Ya wouldn't drive nelly..."
    "Ya wouldn't beat eggs..."
    "As thick as two short planks..."
