    Yep. Just calling out the BS is all.

    Plus if I knock out the foundation of the story then the rest falls quite easily.

    You're calling BS in a post where I claim to have seen the ghost of my great grandad wearing a wedding dress, in a Lucozade factory in Artane, where I was assigned a job of keeping the fizz in a bottle of red Lucozade?

    Well I think it is because I doubt the fat cats hired in an 18 year old whizz kid (or is that fizz kid)?

    I'm not sure, but a few people thanked it, so I'm not sure if they believed that rubbish, or if they got a joke I didn't :confused:

    You genuinely thought my dead great grandad in a wedding dress called me a fat knacker in a Lucozade factory in Artane. You've forever waived your rights to make fun of another person's posts my friend.

    I worked as a porter in a Dublin hospital. One night there had been a gangland shooting and two men were brought to the hospital in question. One man died in the ambulance, the other made it to the hospital but died on the operating table. Later I wheeled the body of one of the men down to the mortuary. About an hour later, I had to head down to the basement again, where the mortuary and pathology area was. I took the lift and headed down to the basement. The lift door opened and standing there, was the man whose body I'd wheeled down an hour earlier. He didn't say anything, just stood there, staring at me. I hit the lift button and he just continued staring at me as the lift door closed. I knew it was a dead man I was seeing. That's just one example, I experienced many unnerving things during my time there.
    A day or two later, I saw the shooting covered in one of the red top newspapers and it had pictures of the two men who were killed. One of them was the man I saw standing in the mortuary.

    spoof

    Not better, just posses a more analytical and logical mind.

    I'd be willing to bet that a logic test would prove that skeptics beat those that believe in the paranormal.

    I genuinely do miss them a lot.

    cynics you mean. skeptics question and research. believers just believe, cynics say its all bull****

    Plus, I'd bet money you'd be wrong. Tarring many people with one tiny brush there so you are - but sure work away if it makes you feel good

    There is only so much questioning and research one can do before a skeptic turns cynical.

    I didn't mean offence so retract my previous statement.

    Forgive me, I didn't see it as blatant humour because every other story is as unbelievable as yours yet people are in awe of them.

    have you actually done any research at all into the paranormal? Not that it matters in reality, but unless you have .....

    I am a big fan of James Randi.

    As for personal research - no I don't investigate paranormal stuff. I just see rational explanations and holes in every story I hear.

    You've literally already admitted that you missed the gag.
