I was listening to Pat Kenny on the radio this morning. There was a section where he was interviewing someone about teenage suicides and the person mentioned that many colleges were banning bebo because of certain disturbing content.

Plank...sorry, Pat, then went on to say that many of the colleges in Ireland were actually banning bebo because of the high load on traffic and people wasting time, etc. etc.

At that point I thought, hang on! I've heard that somewhere before!

Bingo! It was only been mentioned on boards.ie in the UL and WIT forums on boards.ie. It's never been mentioned on any national print media before.

As Pat is a self-confessed surfer, he must have picked that up from boards.ie.

Now I feel really bad about all the horrible things I've said about him on here (especially the one about RTE having to update his firmware, surgecially remove his tie and take the 6-foot titanium rod out of his arse at 8pm every Friday so he could present the Late Late).

Pat...I'm really really sorry I made you and baby-Jesus cry.

Well if Pat IS lurking on Boards then he must no doubt spend some time on this forum?

Er, wtf, why was this thread hacked apart? The deleted replies explained the other means by which Kenny could've come across the Bebo ban.... bit of Boards ego manifesting itself?
