Most Hypocritical Thing You've Ever Heard?

liah · 14-09-2009 01:02AM #1

I got chatted up by Andrew Strong one night a couple weeks ago (yes, yer man from the Commitments). He told me he owned three houses in the South of France and was used to living the "rock n' roll lifestyle.."

..then proceeded to offer me a line of Charge. :rolleyes:

Perhaps not the most hypocritical thing I've ever heard, but it certainly gave me a chuckle later on.

So what's the most hypocritical thing anyone's said to you?

*note: for those not in the "know," Charge is the legal hemp shop equivalent of cocaine, which is easy enough to get in this country, and on top of that, does pretty much fúck all..

big tough looking "rockstars" who carry lots and lots of luggage(clothes) for a small tour...not naming any names...

Lol, at least offer some real coke. That has to be the lamest thing I've ever heard.

He was probably off his tits on smarties and fanta.

Precisely! I thought it was hilarious that he was going on about being such a big rockstar and bigging himself up, just to show he's not even able to afford a bag of coke.

..not that I would've taken any anyway, it's not really my thing.

I've a mate that's a walking hypocrit. He claims to be socialist and anti capitalist and turns up for all these marches and demonstrations and wears the anti mcdonalds and starbucks t shirts etc. But yet he practically lives in mcdonalds, wears brand name clothes only and would almost get pissed off if you ask him for a loan of 20 cent for the bus.

I worked in a mobile phone call centre, got a call once off a woman that was pissed she couldnt send a group text due to poor coverage, the text she was trying to send was being sent to a group organising a protest against the phone mast being put up in the town to give better coverage, you could hear my facepalm down the phone line...

Everything that comes out of Fianna Fail, also 90% of Dublin people.... cue backlash:cool:

Because it was preceded by such over-the-top boasting. It's as rock n' roll as offering her sherbert.

Out of curiosity, I had a look at what Andy was releasing these days. Much to my amusement, these ads were embedded in the page:

Presumably because the keywords 'Andrew Strong' & 'cocaine' were cached or something, but I still LOLed.

Funnily enough Andrew Strong did an ad for Coke once.

I used to work in Stockport. A bit of a chav area. One time I heard a chav Mum turn around to her 4 year old kid saying 'Bradley will you ever stop fcuking cursing"

I'm not too sure that's fair. I've not seen too many flash priests. I've seen a flashing priest however.

From this thread, I'm think it's coke. I didn't know what it was either, I guess I move in the right circles.

Charge is a drug that makes you unable to read the starting post of a thread properly.

Don't do it kids. Just say NO.

I parked my car beside a halting site one time and one of the newly settled folk told me to GO, MOVE, SHIFT.

You wouldnt mind clarifying how you arrived at the dates shown, i presume, as there are no mentions of time/date in the bible.
