    Was listening to Tubrity on the way in this morning, and he was talking about some dude doing Irish motivational posters.


    Something like "sure it will all be grand", and giving €1 from each poster to the government. Anybody come across these?

    Sounds like a truly horrible idea.

    Maybe he can do one for Tubridy himself saying something along the lines of...

    Talentless. That's all you need to be to work for RTE.

    Is that just another way of saying that he'll be paying tax?

    So he wants to use him paying tax as an incentive for people to buy crappy motivational posters?

    I'm sick of all these gripes about Ryan Tubridy... the guy started on the bottom of the ladder as a teaboy, for goodness sake... put himself through college, speaks 58 languages, designs/makes his own suits, has saved countless lives & won a Nobel prize for broadcasting. Would we were all a lot more like him.

    Those motivational posters sucked 6,000 years ago when they came out, so I'd imagine a sh1te Irish take on them will be as funny as your granny's corpse.

    I'd buy one if it was a picture of Tubridy and his Fianna Fail cronies hacked to bits Rwanda - style.

    the caption:


    "Now it's Grand!"

    Okay. Insert Craig Doyle, Daithi O'Se, Joe Duffy or any other RTE 'personality' and it still works. I chose Tubbers as he was mentioned in the first post.





    And he's an absolute cunt.
