How to become famous in Ireland!

Micheal_UCD

Without going on a mass killing spree what is the best way for someone who doesnt have any stand-out talents to gain fame. I'm not talking about being famous world-wide, just for example, the level of fame that Breffny now has in this country!!

My name is URL

Just be the guy wearing a bra in public

also who is Breffny? He sounds like a tosser

Princess Consuela Bananahammock

Kill a child? usually gets a bit of high profile meedja attention.*

what is Brefney?

Someone with no talent? Collapse the financial system. Oh, too late.
How about collapsing the private sector?

AARRRGH

Brefney is a guy from this seasons apprentice. He was fired last night.

He's popular because he's alright looking and is a bit of a charming dope.

Step 1. Spunk into hand.

Step 2. Run hand through hair in an upwards motion.

Step 3. Practice speaking in fake American accent.

Step 4. Enter X factor.

Shout at Pat Kenny.
Doesn't matter if you're evidently a nut bag wearing an Hawaiian shirt in winter in Ireland.
Notorious fame awaits.

Stand around the top of Grafton St and Temple Bar shouting at people.

RTE will give you your own show eventually.

Subo?

it was created and used by people clearly too lazy to say their real names. those last three syllabels are always the hardest *

1) Become one of these so called "models".
2) Suck off some semi known socialite ballbag.
3) Pose in the middle of the street in your underwear.
4) Break up with said ballbag on radio or TV cos of row about posing in the street in your pants.
5) Tell everyone that you DONT do drugs.
6) OD of a drug overdose at a cocaine party!

Simple!

Fratton Fred

seems every year around this time to work like a charm, of course come the end of x factor nobody will remember you

Liam Byrne

Apparently TV3 run a show called "I'm a celebrity...." and even though no-one in it actually is one, they get known that way.....at least to brain-dead tabloid-reading plebs who like to watch "reality" that involves people sticking their heads into buckets of - unfortunately DNA-adjusted-so-they've-no-poison - tarantulas...

You could try that.
