Weirdo in Fallon & Byrne

rKossi

Ok I was eating in fallon and byrne today with my mom, when some guy came over to us and started chatting me up.
He kept saying he knew me but but was like I never saw you in my life.
He then just stood over me for a good 10 - 15mins before he left
It was so akward...

Don't suppose you've reconsidered giving me your number? :P

You should have at least let him get the shift and a stinky finger. Women can be such prudes.

I was looking for a ride off your mom. We're old friends.

You sly old fox you....you know you couldn't beat that with a sh1tty stick


notwithstanding the fact it may take a stick which will end up getting very sh1tty, to loosen up peoples bowels after a dose of your "value" noodles

You actually have a pretty good reason to feel aggrieved, OP.

But whenever someone describes a person as "a weirdo" I immediately stop feeling sympathy for them. Not really criticizing you (well, I am a bit) but I think we could find more suitable words to describe people we don't understand or who probably aren't very well.

Describing someone as a weirdo is more an observation of the persons actions and not who they are. People generally don't take into account if a person is mentally unwell, but rather describe them as 'weird'.

Nobody has the time/energy to go around and delve into everyone's mind or circumstances in what might be making them act a certain way. So just saying 'weird' is perfectly acceptable to get the message across.

Of course, it's not very PC. I couldn't give a b0llocks myself. He sounds like a total weirdo.

They used to do a nice chilli in fairness to them.

No it's not. It is expressly an observation of an individual to use the word 'weirdo'.

An observation of their actions could perfectly legitimately be described as 'weird', or rather, 'discomfiting' to use a slightly more exact term. But the use of the noun 'weirdo' most certainly pertains to an individual, and not just his or her actions.

I think it's a bit lazy.

fair enough that they the change mad prices for the imports and fancy ****e but alot of the stuff you could just get in tesco for half price, it's madness .

I thought El Weirdo and KFallon were somehow involved.

I don't know if ye are taking the piss out of eachother, but there is a thread floating around here from the guys perspective..

It's called "has my ex got a twin, and other questions" or something similar!
