I'm out as well.

No-wonder RTE is losing money when huge swathes of us are switching the radio off at 2pm.

Going from the thread I haven't even turned it on. And won't unless the subject changes.

Jaysus, that was a quick end to the auld thread.
I went to make a cup of coffee and as Gaybo himself might have put it: "There it was....gone".

That's plenty for me. I am out, actually giving me a headache listening to this topic.

I think I'll home school my daughter after listening to all these stories.
Who is raising all these little monsters? Bullying at that young age was very rare 'back in my day'.

True story:
When I was 6 or 7 at school another kid stole my lunch. When I told my dad he said 'if he tries it again, give him a smack in th gob'.
The next day I went up to the culprit and gave him a smack in the gob before he had a chance to repeat the offence. He complained to the teacher and I got lines to do. I didn't care, I had my satisfaction.
After a while the lunch-stealer and I became best friends and remain so to this very day.

I preferred my suggested title, so to speak. It's also applicable to the week dat's in it, with Joe, Tubs and Farcy about to fall below de poverty line so to speak.

I seen bullying first hand quite often in secondary school in the early 80s.

Its nothing new.

I don't ever remember hearing stories of kids commiting suicide over it. Maybe they did in certain places. Are kids less resilient? Is suicide too talked about and putting it in their minds as an option?

But I think schools need to take a zero tolerance approach to it. Maybe if the young ones could start a movement like they have to Extinction Rebellion, and start calling out bullies, things might improve.

So can Joe:


Might help explain the fascination with death? The shirt certainly is shining, whatever about having it.

De Mrs. Browinz wan? Nope, it's real. Joe "starred" in an episode, and de MOOOOOOVIE fillum.

I know there are exceptional cases but I think that a lot of the so-called bullying is just kids establishing the 'pecking order' amongst themselves. It's a natural thing. It's how you learn to fight your corner.

De chosen one is very apt, especially given our host's proclivity for leaving the seat on a weekly basis.

Anyways, where is the other mods that are usually all over this thread today? Hmm, can we deduce RTE connections?

this lads a bit of a dreamer...


Join the chess club is one of his recommendations...yeah that'll stop the bullies alright
