    Why did the Gay bar close down then? too be honest I haven't noticed an increase of the Gays around the town in recent years.

    I'd say it's more along the lines of a website contributor/contributions wrote the article in 2008 from a (guest?) editor called BumBoy that has some sort of a grudge against the county (Note the alcohol and hurling references). He only made two contributions :rolleyes:

    Maybe they don't fancy you.

    It is funny though. I wonder if Nolan Park would give gay group discounts to the matches.

    I have been busy lately channeling my creativity into an original stage musical about the rise of the Third Reich.

    It's called Heil! and it should be in the watergate by Octoberish.

    I remember I was there one night with a few mates(not gay) and I went up for a poo. It was all quite and then I could here groaning. Two chaps in the next cubicle busting the arse off each other. Scary stuff, I left with the fright I got.

    If you like that you'll love this :pac::pac:

    http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Kilkenny

    Normally speaking such entries on the site are funny...take Dublin's one...http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Dublin

    however its clear somebody with a chip on their shoulder re-wrote most of the Kilkenny one as it used to be far better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭fabbydabby


    I agree, it needs work; references to the world's end and Dunnes

    That portrait of George Berkley is great though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,041 ✭✭✭cocoshovel


    This was written like 4 or so years ago, no? There was a lot of that stuff being said about Kilkenny having a large gay scene back then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭fabbydabby


    I did a bit of work on that uncyclopedia article.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    LOL very good.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,092 ✭✭✭catbear


    Pedestrian employed by the local authorities to ensure Kilkenny women walk in groups of two or more.

    Castlecomer

    Castlecomer is noted for having the most inbred isolated population in Western Europe. However this has not stopped a vast and varied populace from developing in this small townsland, leading to much marital violence and street brawls between young couples. In fact some observers have noted that the only thing Castlecomer marital partners have in common is their parents.

    Love it. :D
