    McSavage - absolute and utter idiot. His 'comedy' consists of slagging passers-by in front of large crowds; which is pretty easy to do when you're the one holding the microphone... as well as nobhead routines where he holds up moronic signs. Yeah. Really funny. He's the Fran Cosgrove/Jade Goody of 'comedians'.

    Oh and Pighead will stop writing in the third person when petermonaghan starts to improve on his shoddy posting. Don't hold your breath folks.
    Happy Friday to all apart from petermonaghan.

    wow, burn, i sure learned my lesson. your quite the formidable foe.

    I've been zinged by McSavage once and have to say, despite this, I have a lot less animosity toward him than most on this board. Sometimes he crosses the line though.

    Don't his "psychiatric issues" extend as far as being treated for depression or something similar? Hardly a raving loon.

    Have to say the signs made me laugh. But I feel sorry for the guy. Unless this is for a show or something his career must be seriously flagging.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    this is what he has always done, and some people dont like the repetition of theme.

    sure loads of comedians are treated for depression. it has to do with the highs of performing and the comparitive lows of the rest of life, imo

    And I've missed it every time unfortunately...maybe some day *crosses fingers*.

    He's an un-funny, un-talented, attention seeking gobsh1te. If people just kept walking and ignored him he'd (hopefully) go away except with our level of tourists and those who are so easily entertained that they actually think hes funny, I can't see it happening any time soon.

    Oh and Happy Friday Pighead.

    Actually,i'm about ten minutes away from him..i think i'll go round and give hime a kicking if he's still there!!!!!!

    You make me sick petermonaghan. Pighead extends the olive branch of peace to you and what happens? You break it in two with your cruel bony fingers.

    After all I've fcuking done for you. I stuck up for you when coolsmileygirl said you were the only bloke on boards she wouldn't shag. "Ah go on coolsmileygirl at least give him a blow job. Just pretend its Pighead you're sucking off.

    I told Giblet not to ban you for rubbish posting. "I know his posting is turgid but he's only a young fella, they might improve in time"

    Bottom line here petermonaghan(2/10, unoriginal and names not capitalised) is you're an ungrateful spoilt brat who'd be better served showing some respect to those who are looking out for you. Pigheads finished with you buddy. No more kisses.

    that was quality. i forgive you. :D

    Dave McSavage is actually David Andrews jnr, son of Fianna Fáil politician David Andrews, and his brother is the Fianna Fail politician Barry Andrews.

    His is a tragic story. Not clever or devious enough to follow the family business in politics, he now shouts at random strangers in the street and demands money for same.

    Highlights of his 'career' including being called by the Late Late Show, not once, but twice, to be the closing guest when the 'real' closing guest was too drunk/indifferent to appear on the show.

    Many suggest that to call Dave McSavage a 'comedian' would be akin to calling the Romanian woman who sells the Big Issue outside Bewleys a 'publishing magnate'.

    However, harsher critics suggest, given his family's Fianna Fail political background, that if his career in comedy doesn't work out, he could form a family musical act, with Dave jnr on guitar, and his Father and Brother on the fiddle.

    That should start you off.. considering they went to town on the owners of that site (and lost, due to it being factual) they should have a field day with whats-his-face.

    I read the first 2 paragraphs of that before realiseing it goes on for ages. But just on the environment front they say about mcdonalds creating millions of tons of packaging used for a few mins then discarded, what are they expected to do? hand you an unwrapped burger, a handfull of chips in your hand and pour the drink straigh into your mouth?

    Plus you have to wonder about the people that make these sites. Are they actuall concerned about the environment or just anti-mcdonalds for some reason or another (go cold food one day/had crappy service etc) becaus esurely if it was the former they'd be attacking the whole industry instead of just one company within it.


    Anyhoo, Dave McSavage isnt funny. If he was he would'nt have to busk for money. When was the last ime you saw Tommy Tiernan annoying people in the street (not saying he's particularly funny, but he's a lot more sucesfull than McSavage)

    Well the actual case did go on for years.

    well prior to the McLibel case you would get instances that you still see in some other places. They would wrap the burger in paper, put it into a box and the put that box into a bag. All of it trash and none of it recycled. McD using recycled paper for example was due in part to the McLibel case.

    hahah this is some funny stuff!!

    HOWEVER...this thread should be dedicated to the sole purpose of slagging off this McSavage character. I don't know much about him, but he sounds like a d*ck.

    Mc Savage stopped me one day when I was walking threw Temple Bar during one of his "original" standup routines, he looked like he was going to talk shit to me so I gave him a look like I was going to smash him in the face and then I watched him shut the fuck up :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 328 ✭✭easy_as_easy


    :mad: was that the look?
