It's pointless having a Big Mac in the poll.

It reminds me of when Bertie Ahern could not build his Bertie Bowl so he built one of these instead.

What does the spire and bertie have in common?
































They are both useless pricks

darkman2

What does it remind me of? A stainless steel spire?

Latchy

BigMac

An example of Celtic Tiger excess and a big pointy , stainless steel ...souless looking thing.

( at least Nelsons Pillar had some charm to it and you could climb up there and view the city centre ) :pac:

Am I the only one who once saw a bunch of chinese people praying by the spike one early morning?

they were getting down on their knees on a white sheet (almost muslim style) I thought it was a religious holiday or something.

lightning conductor which is what it really is. The rich and powerful in Ireland placed it there to ensure their own mansions don’t get hit.

A symbol of the Government who commissioned it - Cold, sterile and useless.

A third rate monument for a second rate city.

The Spire is a beautiful piece of art and I don't really understand people that hate it so much. Typically Irish to slag any attempt at art.

it maybe a nice piece of " art" as you call it but what sickens me is the amount of money spent on this so called piece of art.

But I'm not angry about it.

I believe that the 'Jedward' option symbolizes this and the general state of the country, which is my reasoning for choosing that.

A good place to impail Bertie and his cronies.

I think we should divert funds from education to build an escalator to nowhere like in the simpsons, except this one will tower over the spire. Survive the drop and win a tshirt. Think of it as an irl stupidity filter.

I'll tell you what it is and what it's for. You know those things that you might find on office desks to hold bills? The lump of wood or whatever with a spike coming out? Yea well the pricks in power knew NAMA and the IMF were coming and how big their bills were so they installed that. http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/images/uploads/04.30.spike.jpg

We have a winner! Going by that logic, the bills will encroach as far as the Liffey on the one side and as far as the ambassador on the other side.

Voodoo_rasher

to me the Spire has a dual purpose; that of a massive flag pole hosting a giant tri-color in 2016..(well it is after all in view of the G P O ). anyone else concur?

Spread

The tip of which should be called Pavee Point ......... 'cause you can see Dunsink Lane from it.

And why is the poll closed?
