    Who are your top 5 tv tools? Obvious one's that spring to mind are such lumineres as Peter Andre (Supreme Tool Leader) followed by his second in command Martin King, then Ryan Tubridy, then Brendan O (Tool)' Carroll and Brendan O (Tool)' Conor, all men strangely enough. What is it about male tv tools that makes them tools?

    Yeah, you're probably watching too much TV if you have a list of "TV people" you don't like

    Don't think I have ever heard a female described as a "tool", its pretty much a male term for whatever reason, like bastard tends to be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 906 ✭✭✭Eight Ball


    Eamonn Dunphy

    Kate Burely

    Ryan Tubrity

    Anyone involved in X factor

    Jimmy Carr and his "jam it right up your crack you beller" "Laugh".


    Ho Ho Ho Ho Haaaauuuuuggghhh.


    Once you cop his fakey laugh that he uses more than the autocue, the desire to plunge a lorry into his head becomes almost irisistible.

    Ho Ho Ho Ho Hoouuuaaaaagghhh.


    Fack off. Tool.

    Miriam O Callaghan she is insufferable! :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,689 ✭✭✭Karl Stein


    Jimmy Carr and his "jam it right up your crack you beller" "Laugh".

    And the thing is he's quite hard to avoid if you want to watch Rachel Riley or QI.

    How the hell he's a millionaire from his 'comedy' baffles me.

    He's always on "slaggey" sorts of programmes. How come no-ones gone- "Here Jimmy, how come you have a stupid, annoying, fake laugh? And why do you never, ever vary that stupid, fake, laugh? Are you a Tool?"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭keith16


    Mark Lawrenson * 5

    A man whose commentary is mind numbing and at times, outright bullying of players.

    Once, upon hearing a player passed a late fitness test, he claimed the player should instead have underwent a "fatness" test.

    Once described Paul Mc Shane of putting in a performance so bad, it was a "holocaust"

    Is Peter Andre still actually on TV?

    With regards to Jimmy Carr's laugh

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Dermot/Diarmuid Gavin
    Craig Doyle
    Pat Spillane
    Tubbs (obviously)
    Brendan O'Carroll

    And when he's on QI he commands very little air-time because it requires spontaneous wit which he does not have.

    Oh yeah, he looks like a ventriloquists' dummy too the prick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Linda Martin and Ryan Tubridy. No one else even close to the high level of toolism these two possess.

    The Kardashians are a workshop in the tool sence of the word.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 401 ✭✭theblaqueguy


    Danny Dyer complete tool
    Vinnie Jones his new show is terrible
    Ryan Tubirdy he just annoys me
    Piers Morgan he belongs in a toolbox
    Gaz from geordie shore the ultimate tool


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,221 ✭✭✭NuckingFacker


    I also feel Ray D'arsey needs a mention in the category of "PC Spanners" and our own Gerald keane in the category " Lump Hammers acting the Wrench". No tool collection would be complete without them. And Amanda Brunker as the bag. A she tool? Rare.

    Those knife ads have started many an argument between the fee-lay and fill-it camps.

    What the f**k is the obsession with these types of threads? Are some people's lives so empty and meaningless that obsessing over and abusing these "celebs" makes you feel good about yourself?
