    For a poster styled as Brendan Bendar, you must surely see the irony of criticising nicknames!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,395 ✭✭✭✭Furze99


    Sure send them into Tubridy, he likes regular freebies. Might even encourage him to take up the studies again and vacate the airwaves.

    You got me there Eff, no clue what your point is.

    Lord Boucher Hayes standing in for “Scare Byrne” again, some holidays in Montrosia!

    Why is Claire arguing the toss with this straight talking Aussie guy about whether Djokovic is an anti-vaxxer- she says he hasn’t discouraged anyone else from taking the jab, so “anti-vaxxer” is too serious a claim.

    The Australian guy rightly seems to think this is daft.

    The guy doesn’t believe in vaccines- he’s an anti-vaxxer!

    He is turning into a terrible fool, you get the impression he is secretly laughing at the absurdity of it all, the cynism is irritating as well.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,566 ✭✭✭golondrinas


    Lost all respect for him when he backed to the hilt , with gusto, Pamela with the vexatious asylum claim. Thought he was going to be one of the most woke of woken in RTE. Backfired .

    It is not that, he is a highly intelligent person but dumbs it down which is insulting and he tries to appeal to the permanently outraged.

    The best laugh is when any world-weary cynic 'current affairs' presenter interviews a convicted politician their inner cynism ends up discombobulating them, ends up all over the place.

    Someone should introduce this at Montrosia.

    RTEs very own Typhoid Mary would be bankrupt in a week.

    And double it for talking about No-Vax Djokovic in a non-tennis context. Three different interviews on the subject (so far) this morning...

    Dear god they are pushing the vax healthy kids hard this morning.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,646 ✭✭✭washman3


    Same on m y local radio 95FM. The producer of the show is actually being interviewed about taking her kids for vaccination at the weekend. She describes it as a 'wonderful experience' for the kids with images of Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol on the walls of the centre and they even got Cadbury's chocolate buttons and Smarties after the jab. Sweet Jesus, how have we arrived a this.??

    Next on Scare Byrne; product placement in the media. Tubs and Joe-eh may not approve.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭Pelvis Parsley


    You mean she's graduated to something beyond Covid?

    Very concerned about the proposed close contact changes, the best goes on.

    I am morally going to isolate myself from the world any time I don’t feel 100% well in case I kill anyone by walking on the cracks in the pavement.

    I’m weary at this stage. I used to be a good compliant person, now I don’t give a shoyte. They’ve lost me to the good cause. I have Covid Advisory Fatigue.

    This is going to be an omnishambles 😏

    You know when she's on the fence or disagrees, when she starts an interview/ Sentence with

    Do think🤔

    But what if 🤔

    People (me) will say or think 🤔

    The reality is 🤔

    That’s known as the ‘O’Reilly Defence’ D, you know who I mean….. start quoting ‘texts’ she received and constituents at clinics.

    I’ll leave it at that, but sometimes one would like to actually see hard copy references of these ‘contacts’.


    And she’s not the only one either.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,118 ✭✭✭✭Dempo1


    To true, I'm giggling at the discussion on sensitivity, watching virgin media news briefly yesterday, vox pop from two very sensitive teenagers, basically reading from a script about how traumatised they are over leaving cert exams, one stopped, took a deep breath and ended her contribution with "I'm Gutted"

    Mother of God we've created a terribly sensitive next generation.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,118 ✭✭✭✭Dempo1


    Seriously, are the HSE and Government expecting people to upload antigen test results and close contact information 🙄, they are surely deluded , notwithstanding the GDPR implications of a person uploading information on close contacts . This is just extraordinary 😳

    Judging by how easily triggered many of the posters to these threads are, the older generation isn't much better.

    I'm just thinking back to when I was in school and trying to imagine how I would have fared in a TV interview.
