    The dude was English and is therefore an enemy of old Ireland.
    As such, we should not use his name.
    I suggest replacing the word "Boycott" with "Eurovision" because RTÉ have deliberately put forward crappy entries since the last time we won.
    This word will be entered in the new Hiberno-English dictionary.

    Please give a reason for your suggestion.
    memes will get you an instant permanent ban. I'm not joking about that. Seriously. Anyone posting something along the lines of "Lame something is lame" or "yore ma" will be banned instantly and permanently. Then I'll take the piss out of you.

    Boycott is a combination of a child and something a baby sleeps in. Lets call it manbed, a truely manly successor.

    It was a serious suggestion, not a joke.

    Let's replace the word 'boycott' with 'leave it out Geoff'.
