I seen Roisin Ingle once in real life - she's a ride.

Ooh is it that time of the week again?

*clicks*

404

[edit] Deleted posts? Mod shenanigans? I smell the lawyers...

ergo

"404 not found" interesting indeed

I have to say, since this thread started RI is the first thing I read in the Times on a Saturday (after the sport that is) just to see what she's ****eing on about, but it's sometimes hard to finish

she may well be a nice person, I just don't particularly enjoy what she writes about

Shane Hegarty's column was good today though. as per

and think I saw RI herself in HMV today, with bf in tow, pigtails and all, or maybe it wasn't her

personally I believe that anyone that would have a parody site of themselves shut down obviously a dry individual.

I would suggest that people do with the blog what was done with the errorcom site. mirror it everywhere.

I shut down the blog for the following reasons:

1) It was getting to be a drag doing it every week, and therefore the quality was taking a notable downturn.

2) It wasn't that funny anymore

3) I started to feel bad about it, everyone's got to make a living

4) I think the point about the poor quality of "Me" journalism at the Irish Times had been made but I didn't want it to come across as being vindictive towards a particular individual, because for all I know Roisin Bungle is a decent enough person.

So I killed it. Sic Transit Gloria Mundi.

There's nothing to see here, go about your business.

Fair enough, but I think you should have left it up; I mean, if everyone deleted everything on the Web they didn't intend to update, there wouldn't be many pages left. As for feeling sorry about it, well, it wasn't nasty (I remember the satirical magazines from my day in colleges - now THEY were nasty) and damning mediocrity is thoroughly deserved in my opinion.

Just read that - quite scathing. I imagine lots of Phoenix readers will be disappointed they can't find it.

Great to see there are many of us out there who can't believe we are paying her to read her ****e talk...AND I wish the IT would print a more up-to-date photo of her, with those extra 2 stone...saw her walking down Baggot St last week, manatee-outta-the-sea...

"The sort of person who buys the Irish Times only on a Saturday" must be an advertising demographic. I'd say they're an shallow, uneducated, consumerist bunch.
