Why the weather's so bad lately

2funki4wheelz

I know why the weather's been insane, with more rain here than a rain forest.
It's not global warming.

It all started when that Rhianna 'Um-ber-ella' song started getting played all the time.

Anyone else notice this? I think it's all part of some super umbrella manufacturer's ploy to take over the world.

Scary - I didn't hear that (dear God no Today FM on my walkman) I was talking about it with workmates on Monday at lunch!! It must be true if we're all thinking it.

How?!!? Jesus, the radio on in the background in work plays it (along with the Shakira/Beyonce one) at least 8 times per day, no exaggeration.

Repeating the Rihanna and Shakira videos 8 times, all good But jesus the songs really begin to grate on you.


That Gwen Stefani one is on a bit too regular and all. Jesus I hate Irish radio, it was great when work allowed us to stream radio online.

Oh I never listen to the radio for this reason and many others.

I was expecting the weather to get better soon, but according to the weatherpeople it's going to be a very wet summer. Me angry now. Can't believe I went on holiday at Easter instead this year...

The term "chattering morons" comes to mind whenever i hear it..

I rather sit in the rain of Ireland than have my testicles permanently stuck to my leg in 41 degree heat.

Why the weather's so bad lately

2 full moons this month?

irlirishkev

It's on the all request show on the radio right now..

Why in the name of f*ck would someone actually request it be played.. Surely if you just go from one end of the dial to the other you'll hear it at least once..

Bloody awful song.

BOT: Sh*te weather and sh*te song.. possible connection. Probably none though.

Reku

So does this mean if enough people play "sunshine on a rainy day" we can get rainbows?:p

I hope Global Warming speeds up really fast over the next week to save this, the worst summer ever from further catastrophe

The bad weather is because Global Warming has stopped. One month in government and the Green Party have delivered...take note, Bertie, where are those Guards and hospital beds

The radio has fcuking corrupted my mus taste, after hearing that songs a little over 500 times I now like it, the same thing happened with that song How to Save a Life, pure bollcoks!

biko

Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say, "Please share my umbrella"
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows under my umbrella

All that summer we enjoyed it, wind and rain and shine.
That umbrella we employed it. By August, she was mine

Every morning I would see her waitin' at the stop
Sometimes she'd shop and she would show me what she'd bought

All the people stared as if we were both quite insane
Someday my name and hers are goin' to be the same

That's the way the whole thing started. Silly, but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance beginnin' in a queue

Came the sun the ice was meltin' no more shelterin' now
Nice to think that that umbrella led me to a vow

Weather bad?...nah its nothing, its great traditional weather. Just think of all that risk of skin cancer your missing with no sun!!

Rain and wind, its far better than sticky heat. Some people including meself and the missus love this type of weather, its so refreshinggggggggg.

May it continue for next 10 days at least!!

The crappy Irish climate is the main reason I don't believe in God. Why would he stick a race like the Irish who (apart from thr nutter above) worship the sun into such a place with no summer? Either that or he has a twisted sense of humour.

An interesting connection there by the unnamed Today FM dj.

We should set up some sort of a lynch mob and go over to the U.S to lynch her with our mob. But when we arrive and experience their lovely weather we'll forget about lynching or mobbing altogether. That is until a hurricane hits. Bleaugh.

That song comes on the radio EVERY SINGLE DAY in work, annoys the hell outta me!!

And the weather.. so unpredictable - I mean one minute it's nice enough and the next there's a river flowing through the car park.

Clearly the Irish are a Mediterranean people who have been transplaced. Why else would we sit outside cafes the moment the sun comes out?

I'm a bit pissed off about all the rain as I only have a washing line out the back for drying and my laundry heap is building up. I could hang things in the living room but then the room gets all damp and the stuff doesn't dry for days! (It's not so bad in the winter as the heating is on)

I wholeheartedly agree.

I was listening to the radio this afternoon and it was a discussion between some friends of the earth treehugger and the Emeritius Professor of something complicated to do with weather from an Oxford University.

The poor treehugger was practically crying by the time it finished because the Professor just cut down his arguments and rhetoric

But about the bad weather, the professor said it is the exact opposite of El Nino ... the Pacific is very cool at the moment and this is what has moved the jet stream way down over southern europe, which causes all this low pressure shíte to drop lots and lots of water on us

A few days ago I had to change the radio channel three times, it was playing on Spin 103, FM104 and some other bleedin' channel... now I'd just leave it on and sing along to it though.

What a pile of horse-sh1te. Do you honestly expect us to believe some Professor when the answer has already been given. It's the poxy Umbrella song

We need an El Nino song to recite every summer then..well us rain lovers do

You are welcome to it, that's far too hot to enjoy imo, for most people.

I accept full responsibility. I knew it was going to p**s down for the whole summer but I just couldn't resist buying a power-washer. It's f*** all to do with rain-dancing songs, global warming, El Nino - I bought the fu****g power washer! It started raining the moment I got the damn thing out of the box! Like the time I bought a barbecue - and a sun-lounger - and sun screen. Like the times I bought 3 months road-tax, only for my car to break down and be off the road for three months!

I'm trying to think of ways of beating this curse. I'm thinking that, if I go out and buy a very expensive rain-coat, that might do the trick.

But, until the curse is broken I'll be standing at the back-door, sobbing,with my hose in my hand, waiting for the day! What a b*****d!

2funki4wheelz

ejmaztec, you might've swayed me from the Um-ber-ella theory with that post.

Perhaps it some kind of cosmic joke on all the 'Pope's Children' with their decking and shiny gas bar-b-ques and convertible Peugots.

What the hell was that just there?

I was driving, had the car window half way down and felt this burning hot sensation from the sky on right hand side of my face and neck, it was coming from a bright shiny star.

Is it time to head to the mountains, possible asteroid attack?

No, that was a blazing Roma being catapulted from a roundabout (see other thread for details)

I've seen it too. Everybody was standing around looking up at the sky, shielding their eyes from this bright phenomenon. Thought i heard someone saying something about it being a "sun", whatever that is.
