Answers in. Mostly wrong I'm sure. And anyone that knows Margaret Thatchers middle name needs to be hoisted by his undergarments from the highest flagpole around here.

How can one properly insult someone's memory if one doesn't know her full name?

Kolido

Still a few to get their answers in. I'm a reasonable dude though, if their in when I start totting up numbers tomorrow if will be grand

Kolido

All in except Sinead, still time if you want to play on.

Folks, I totally forgot it's Paddys Day and I scheduled the reveal for this evening. I can postpone it if folk are busy, personally I have nothing else to be doing so I'm free.

Kolido

I can reveal now, all scores received have been totted up.

I can also reveal that one player hit both tie breaker answers on the nose, outstanding answering. Will they be needed, we will see!

I can also reveal that Music proved to be the toughest category overall

Purgative

I think I have the correct song for the MTV Europe thing, remains to be seen of course, I avoid googling the answers, for the element of surprise.

Does MTV even exist anymore? I know they stopped playing music vids years ago (Youtube probably hammered them) and then became like a reality TV channel.

Well Tay Tay’s farm didn’t feature in The Crown so there’s hope...

Weren't that an old Bob Dylan song?

Patrick was a top tier arsehole who came over here like the mad cult disciple that he was, and killed any Pagan (because we were all Pagans back then, and Paganism is great craic by all accounts) who wouldn't convert to Catholicism.

Under the tyranny of the Catholic Church all Pagan Festivals and Celebrations (ie. anything that involved having a few drinks and a bit of a party) were banned thanks to that prick Patrick and everyone was forced to pray and pay penance.

And over the years the Catholic Mafia covered it all up and turned it into a fun kids story about driving all the snakes out of Ireland, and all the SHEEPLE of Ireland celebrate and drink to the serial killer who forced religion down our throats whether we wanted ir or not, even though we've been enslaved by Catholicism ever since, and only recently been able to start freeing ourselves from those shackles.

All the great stuff, all the craic of being Irish, have trickled down and survived from the Pagan days in defiance against the will of the God Squad, so really what we should be doing every year is burning effigies of that Psycho Patrick and sharing the truth about the atrocities and crimes against our ancestors instead of all this "oh wasn't he great for scaring off those imaginary snakes that never existed here in the first place"... :rolleyes:

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk...

Their main channel is ****e, but they do have several music-only channels, yeah. MTV Music is my default channel to have on in the background when there's nothing to watch - not that it helped with yesterday's questions

And that was only the short condensed boards friendly version...

My first "The Real Story of Saint Patrick" seminar was back in 2015 at a family gathering and lasted about an hour as I dropped some truth bombs on my cousins...

I've toyed with the idea of adapting it into a Stand-Up Show, Novel, or Netflix Series over the years... One of these days I'll get around to it I'm sure... :pac:

I've still always been dragged along to family events whether I want to be there or not.

Some of my cousins beg me to do the whole rant again at every opportunity as if it were some sort of a party piece rather than the eye-opening lecture that it actually is...

I'd say you're hilarious when you're all worked up LeVar! I mean that in a good way!

I've been told as much anyway, and I enjoy going off on epic rants for my own amusement, so it's a win-win... :pac:

Reminds me of that Stewart Lee thing in Glasgow, where he tells the audience that Robert the Bruce was a probably a pedo. Probably seen it already but here it is.

Night owl gal
