    Would this Mad mary, by any chance, have very short white hair, and always wear crazy colourful clothes, and (I think) her real name is Anne? If so, I think I know where she's located.

    Fools, there is a conspiracy!
    The technology manufacturers are in cohorts with our governments, and are monitoring our ever cyber move and seeing what we see (monkey pr0n included monkeyfudge). That report that AOL released is just the beginning. The Illuminati allowed that to be released because they don't want everyone to know they exist, so they release the odd thing like that just to pretend that these so called "leaks" and whatnot, are just pure fluke and that conincidence is actually something.

    Just wait. Oh just wait, you'll all fall victim to this and will one day drop your guard, and then BAM! A tree the Illuminati felled will be on you, crushing your every organ, your life-blood running through the leaves on the forest floor. A deer dances merrily in a meadow, and it accidently steps on a rabbit. Killing it. The rabbits parents are upset and one volunteers to assassinate the deer.
    It loads it's PSG-1, and takes aim. The cigarette hanging from it's mouth glows angrily for a second, as the rabbit takes a deep drag.
    The smoke drifts lazily in the air, twisting and curling in the light autumn breeze. A crack rings out. The rest of the deer heard scatter, all except for one. It tries to follow, stumbling a few feet forward. Suddenly it's legs give way, and it falls slowly to the ground, blood drenching it's once fine white shimmering coat.
    It's eyes fixed on the clouds, and the blue sky. They begin to glaze over and the world turns to perpetual darkness. The deer, never again rising from Death's sleep.

    Up on the hilltop, a solemn tear falls from the rabbit's eye. It runs the length of it's cheek, and falters at it's jaw. Then, like a meteor gliding through space, it drop to the ground.
    The rabbit clicks on the safety of his rifle, slings it on his back, and slowly returns to his family.

    Far away in the forest, a deer raises it's head, and looks toward the red moon.

    used to see her in Leixlip quite a bit, but that was about 15 or 16 years ago.
    haven't seen her since then. i assumed she was dead. i don't visit Dublin all that often.

    The ol' Mad Mary from O'Connell St also used to be in Ringsend/Sandymount alot. Ain't seen her in years!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    I assume this is a different one to that crazy 'ol bint who used to bless each paving stone and the random passer-by on O'Connell street?

    yep.
    it ap[pears she gets around quite a bit too.
    someone needs to take a picture the next time they see her (god bless camera phones), post it here and see if anyone from other parts of the country recognises here.

    Not a bad idea. G'ss she was old in the 90's when she was a regular on O'Connell Street, she must be ancient now.

    Ladies and gentlemen, I have an extremely important announcement. Mad Mary is alive and well, and frequents the K2 nightclub in Howth.

    I had no idea she was this famous, I thought she was only known in Howth.
    She dances in K2 on friday and saturday nights (she's been there pretty much every time I have), and is often danced around, as a centrepiece. I'll try to get a picture next time I see her.

    if it's standard VHS you could wind it on to a casette and try it - but you'd have to make sure it's not upside down or back to front

    of course you'd need to ask her where it came form to try to ID the format used if not VHS


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 822 ✭✭✭Kastro


    maby she was on a life time acid comedown


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,102 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    would you ride her?

    Did you read the part where I mentioned she had extensive facial hair?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 822 ✭✭✭Kastro


    some people are into that

    Uh huh, fair enough. But I doubt it would have made any difference to her anyway.

    I knew mad Anne, she came down and spent a night in the Hotel I was working in a while ago. I served her coffee and she asked my name..

    'David, ah yes like King David - well you look like you'll be a better man than he. Will you call me a taxi to go to Kilkenny, King David?'

    Kilkenny was a two hour drive away, I bet the driver was only delighted!

    I see her at the Spire every so often, next to the flower sellers.

    As for that Aussie/Kiwi woman - She stopped myself and the girlfriend in Pennys one day, and was talking for ages about implants and listening devices. She saw that I had a mobile phone and went nuts over it..

    'This is how they get you mate, nothing you say is private. I've been trying to tell people this for 15 years!!'

    My girlfriend called her a wierdo and fecked off, but I couldn't, so I stood there for another 3-4 minutes like a dope. I was really looking around for hidden camera men etc. When I walked away I looked back and she had already grabbed someone else to talk to.

    There's loads of wierdos around the place!

    Edit - I knew I'd seen this thread ages ago. Damn! Oh well, Merry Christmas!

    Well I had her today out in Coolock.

    I was on my lunch break eating my lunch and she just came over and sat down and starting going on at us with the whole conspiracy thing.

    She even claims people are talking about her on the internet apparently... sheesh... how paranoid can you get?

    Where the hell would she go and get an idea like that!

    yes they can trace your movements via your mobile
    and yes your mobile could be setup to silent ring + auto answer from certain numbers so someone could eavesdrop easily - whether big brother has a back door is unknown but technically it's trivial. One of the big advantages of CRT monitors is the way the screen reacts just before a call ( then again BB might tell the phone to use minimum power )

    what would be really sneaky would be to do the silent calls to people near you instead of to your phone, even if they can't hear you clearly they could use a few phones and noise cancellation to pick you up out of the background
