    Don't get me wrong they annoy the hell out of me and think their a disgrace but I can't help but think fair play to them for getting out there and doing what they want.

    Nah, but tbh, I think they will be eating out on this for the next ten years.

    They'll be heading into Coppers or whatever, and picking up like crazy.

    Their parents must be so much richer than mine, so I think I'll complain about it and attribute their success to their parents having money. Damn inferiority complex.

    This is what I read.

    Jedward went to Kings Hospital so what. If their parents can afford to send them to a private boarding school and choose to do so then I dont see any problem. I really dont see why everyone hates Jedward so much. Any time i ask for a reason why people hate them the strongest reply i get is "because they cant sing". I really think its time for everyone to stop being so begrudging. I dont know why the irish hate to see their own do well.

    There is nothing apparent about it they are runners unless they decide that due to their new found fame that they want to quit.
    They run for a club called DSD (Dundrum South Dublin).

    You seem to be reveling in the fact that they were so badly bullied they had to leave the school... I really hope that's not the case.

    Are you saying that they don't annoy you even a little bit the way they carry on?
    As I said earlier fair play to them but that doesn't mean I have to like them.

    X-Factor is a show for people who can sing. At least two better singers and performers have been kicked off because of them. I don't even follow the show but they seriously annoy me. They can't sing, they can't perform. Seriously.

    Although I did get a good reaction in Ag when I heard they were on the track "Hang on.. I know someone who will give em a black eye.. *Takes out Phone*" :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 640 ✭✭✭Michaelrsh


    Let's find out the opinion of the ranting heckler from the Frontline show about Jedward.

    "The people who are in power at the moment ... the people who are paying 50 milliom pound a year for a two hour show on Saturday and who have the moralising, pontificating, who say we'll need to cut it back to the American Idol system, and they don't have the moral right to stand and for the people of this show, and you Simon Cowell, who get 50 million pound a year for doing two hours on Saturday and you have the indignity to speak about people who have no talent and you pontificate against Jedward and there non-existing talent. Your X-Factor and the elite 4 of the judging panel do not deserve the money, and need to be confronted for you moralising and your hypocracy. 50 million and at the boom time you were earning 100 million for X-Factor, not American Idol or Britain's got talent or the United States system. You get for times the pay of Louis Walsh. So I don't mind these twins, the Jedward, who is elected by the people of this country to be untalented but who gave you and the judging panel such exaggerated pay, under what condition - the show ratings. So Simon don't you take the idea that I'm going to leave this stage now, 'cause at the moment this is the last that I'll ever stay here, 'cause I wanted to confront you for 20 years about you pontificating and your moralising about these twins and anything bad they do they will be removed from the show. Where will you be accountable for the 50 million, when are you gonna be accountable. You have had your day Simon, you have lived the high life. Well I'm going off this stage now to sue an old lady for pouring water over my head because I feel that I might make a million or two out of it, 'cause I need to make that money .... (som time later) ... THAT'S INJUSTICE!!"

    :rolleyes::pac:

    Might I remind you muffin man that you brought the word apparent into the conversation in your original post.
    In reply to your comment i feel that it is you who doesnt understand the meaning of apparent. My reply to your original post is extremely adequate there has been no misuse of the word "apparently" on my behalf !

    'our own'? its a ****ing foreign singing competition not a war.

    i dont know why people care about them, i couldnt give a ****, but to me its a sad reflection on irish society but thats just me. i wish them the best because they are young lads out there trying to be the best they can be but begrudery? wtf. ireland isnt actually a begruder nation, we tend to support anyone who does well outside of ireland prob to do with an inferiority complex as a nation.

    X-Factor is a show for Simon Cowell to make money and inflate his ego still further. At least two better singers and performers have been kicked off because people keep voting for Jedward, and Simon Cowell can make more money by running with it.

    Oh really, I thought they seemed like they came from lower income brackets, the way they came on stage on tuxes first time out and danced around like arrogant prix.

    However I will give them credit for taking the ****ing piss in there own Jedward way, and what is more Irish than taking the piss, isn't that why its called taking the mick everywhere else?

    It is apparent from the very picture that you posted that they are runners.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,019 ✭✭✭SexyD4Lady


    I think what the10_six5ive is saying that they are definitely runners, why slate him/her when it's rather obvious what was intimated by that statement?

    I would have loved to see Jedard, pity I'm not athletic enough to venture anywhere near the running track!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 351 ✭✭Slippers


    Because the10_six5ive kept treating muffinman like he was wrong when muffinman was right.
    'Apparently they are' means 'they have the appearance of' or 'they look like'.
    It doesn't mean 'they have the appearance of, but they are not,' or 'they look like, but they are not,'.
