    Saw him.

    Had the sound down though, so I dunno what he said.

    Looked a bit like Kenny Everett.

    'Blood, Pat! They are draining our bloooooood!!'

    He said something like that, didn't he?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 286 ✭✭scrapsmac


    I'd love if someone stuck up a clip of it! he looked a bit mental. It was the eyes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,419 ✭✭✭tommy21


    He was passionate but just saying to graduates "Go out there and do what you were trained in!" well end in tears. All the galleries will be filled with Arts students nattering on about fine art, and will drive the poor tourists out and tourism down as a result. :cool:

    Also why is there a guy in a white tux in the audience?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,288 ✭✭✭✭Standard Toaster


    Yea I think Gerry Ryan's dealer was just revealed on the Frontline

    It was so funny when he ignored pat's question completely.

    fine arts guy: Our talented young graduates are emigrating they are leaving the country!!

    Pat: is that what you're doing yea?

    fine arts guy: and then there's an australian company who only work 4 days of the week and bla bla

    Hes an Irish James bond lookalike, those poor feckers have been hit particularly hard during this recession.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 241 ✭✭muppet01


    "let me do what i was trained in..."
    He was talking thru his hole.. thought he was in a shakespere production.The programme was about hard working people who played by the rules and were left high and dry.

    What was his job and contribution????????:confused:

    yeah, a private forum where elected representives from each forum go to disscuss issues affecting the country. we vote for our reps by poll in each forum.

    our elected fourum BD (BoarDsies) can become ministers by getting the most votes in their section (Rec, soc biz, edu) and our taoiseach is the afterhours vote because it has the highest visitor ship.

    sub threads (ie. afterhours>cool vid and links/gailgeforum) can be our senate.


    cant wait for a mod to get power hungry and install a dictatorship.

    I thought he bore a striking resemblance to the Yorkshire Ripper.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 12,333 ✭✭✭✭JONJO THE MISER


    He was a bit of a loon if ya ask me, his eyes were crazy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    He reminded me of the priest in Father Ted who said "Ted, did you say you were looking for someone with a dramatic voice?" "well then you must excuse my impetuous interruption" in the lingirie dept.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    That O'Granola man basically got an extended free advert for his product. I think he mentioned the name about 7 or 8 times.

    It was beyond hilarious and did lighten the mood a little from some of the other upsetting stories we heard. What a nutter. I love these arty farty types. They take themselves so seriously yet afterwards he was probably off to his drama group to give a dramatic interpretation of the life of a mandarin orange through the medium of dance. Luvvies are great.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,984 ✭✭✭✭kippy


    Not trying to be knocking any particular profession, but a 4 year degree in fine arts was never a great way to get a paying job.

    Heh, I'm not quite sure what he was getting at. Is he suggesting artists have a greater say in developing innovative govermental schemes? Or is he just suggesting to allow artists to wander conceptually for four years while developing their arts practice and see what they come up with, in the hope that it would nurture an exciting cultural economy?

    I agree. Fine Art Guy (FAG) is great.

    This FAG's not going to bend over and take it like the rest of us. If there were more FAG's like this guy around, the country would never have got into this mess.

    FAG for leader.

    But on the bright side this country did recognise his talents and he was grateful for the free education. This is good stuff to know.

    He did sort of look like a vampire did he not?Like he hadn't seen light in decades?Maybe thats why hes worried about all the blood being drained


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 363 ✭✭Rockn


    Thanks, he's hilarious.
    And the guy talking before him. Look at your man on his right with the big smug head on him hahaha.

    He's right though; all the politicians and bankers committed nothing less than treason against this country and if that Treason Act hasn't been abolished, then why not use it? Maybe not for shooting them, but most certainly marching them around the country in handcuffs. Putting them in jail won't solve anything, they'll probably get some special treatment in there knowing this damned country. Have them out on the roads day in and day out, seeing just how much they've f*cked this country over.

    What about the primary school teacher who declared at 38:10 when Pat asked if she was looking forward to 2011:
    "I am and I amn't".
    What sort of horse****e english is that?

    We used to get walloped across the head for using the phrase amn't in primary school.

    Is someone going to stick Fine Arts Guy up on youtube for the lolz? I would do it only I'm not able because the government hasn't let me off the leash to pursue these talents.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,086 ✭✭✭Nijmegen


    A student of fine arts. Screaming about life blood. Am I the only one around here drifting towards the application of Godwin's Law?

    He's showing entreepeenurship, so he is. Stop the begrudgin.

    Fine Art Guy and Pontification Guy should have been put in the negotiation room with the IMF and Europe and the door locked

    see what rate we would have got then
