    Piss in it so it eventually becomes twice the amount of liquid and sell it for 100K.

    Seeing that Biffo has no free dail bar any more maybe give him some ink to drink:)

    I hear he likes to cover himself in it and then prowl through the night fighting crime.

    When i heard that spent cartridges were found in the back of a Sin Feiners car I thought about something else entirely.
    Was it Wolfe Toner?

    Donate it to Anglo Irish?

    But wait...the Blueshirts promised them 3.1 Billion already, they might be able to afford their own ink :pac:

    Blast with INK!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    A local newspaper wouldn't consume that amount of Ink. :p

    My guess is that he had some sort of an online toner shop.

    Listen Gaurd...If you want the poster you can have it...I'll run off another few!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 818 ✭✭✭Satts


    However, to use that amount meant he was either paying over the odds, or literally had the printers running 24/7 to use up all that ink - would have been cheaper to sent the documents it to a commercial printer.

    Cheaper for the government, didn't cost your man anything, but he would have had to pay if he sent the stuff to a commercial printer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,834 ✭✭✭Sonnenblumen


    Anyone buying or selling a cartridge?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 22,511 ✭✭✭✭Ash.J.Williams


    ok...the fact they are calling them "cartridges" means the printers were inkjet strange as it may sound, I've never heard toner being called "cartridges". If that is the case it's easy to account for 50k, because that is a seriously inefficient method of printing for a TD.
    If the media are incorrect and it is a laser printer then WTF is he printing!!! Our company has 3 lasers and with toner and drum units you're looking at maybe little over 1k per year....
    I'd say most of his printing could have been outsourced to a printing company cheaper than 50k.

    Use chemicals in the cartrages to make bombs

    who cares what he used it for, his name's enough reason to hate him - time to resign, tho he seemed snoddaigh enough about the whole thing when he was on the news. It's like the temp robbing from the stationery cupboard. "I can take whatever I like....... for free???mmmmm, must rob copious pencils, always needed 10,000 pencils". Gimp. Serious lack of class, no matter what.

    Roll around in it on a very large canvas, call it "austerity" sell for 200,000 euro to some German art gallery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,723 ✭✭✭nice_very


    I would have a certain buachaill from the northern part of our Island, tattooed head to toe with slogans such as: I'm Irish, I love Sinn Fein, down with the british monarchy, unionists suk, etc etc etc feel free to add similar comments

    any ink left over would be used to make giant posters saying: YAYYYY when the bitch thatcher dies
