    I have to say that I'm really disappointed with him so far.
    The best he came up with was "is it made with water from the Liffey?"

    Come on Phil. Give us something to laugh at.
    Leprechauns have been done to death by the Yanks. Actually, they've done everything to death.

    I just want one insulting comment. Is that too much to ask?
    A ginger joke. Something about alcoholism. Anything even remotely racist. Please.

    Just give us a laugh, and something that will offend the 'ra heads for the next 50 years.
    Or potatoes or the famine. That would really stick in peoples craw for a while.

    Tubs tries to grab everyones attention right next to the Queen of the U.K

    I was listening to him on the radio the other night, and while I generally find him to be pretty good tbh (on the radio only), he sometimes insults people without even realising it. He tries to be the funny man at another's expense.

    There was some teenage girl on a competition in Easons, and he kept taking the piss out of her for her bad performance in a spelling contest. He did it one time too many, and said to another contestant "I hope you do better than that other creature". I just thought - what a twat :rolleyes:

    If only that Royal Protection Officer had knocked him out or at least threw him back, noone would have complained

    What an attention seeker, standing right in front of the camera blocking the Royal couple and even then he just moved a few steps backwards and got in the shot
    GTFO Tubridy, this week is not about you

    I think Prince Philip asked if the stout was made using water from the Liffey while in was the Guinness Storehouse yesterday.

    Another good one i heard he said before was at a talk with Chinese people and he said if you listen to this anymore you will go slit eyed.

    The bloke is, to put it politely, "old school" - the school being Eton. His list of verbal gaffes is legendary. For example, he gave a speech to the World Wildlife Fund in which he said "if it has got four legs and it is not a chair, if it has got two wings and it flies but is not an aeroplane, and if it swims and it is not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it". :cool:
    You could just picture them getting ready to go out tonight and Liz telling him to cop on and stay away from the sauce for one night.

    It's a pretty fair question from Philip
    You'd assume the drinking water for Dublin comes from Dublin but the master brewer clearly stated it's from Wicklow

    Nothing wrong with the question
    When my family went there I know my sister asked the same question about the Liffey. They must get the same question hundreds of times every week

    Racism is funny these days?


    If we weren't all so delighted that the royals are gracing us with our presence...

    he looked like he wanted to swamp that pint

    If Tubridy had not cut in when he did, he was about to take a sup of that pint, no question.

    When Phil the Greek goes to Cork he won't be turning down Murphys or Beamish ;)

    it's not racism, it's ethnic criticism bill.

    How is he a legend? He is a racist!!

    If there was someone posting racist remarks here people wouldn't put up with it and they definitely wouldn't call that person a legend.

    Ah Prince Philip would be good craic alright, his involvement with the Nazi regime would be worth a couple of rounds, could ask him what Hitler really thought about the Irish, you're round Prince...you weird, odd, odd man...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 193 ✭✭hairy sailor


    you'd expect him to say to McAleese over dinner "what no potatoes"

    He's a batty old man who has been making crazy comments for 30 years. Is it really worth getting worked up about?

    His involement with the Nazis? If he were to come back as anything it would be a virus to kill of humanity?

    Take your pick.

    Robert Mugabe has been making crazy/racist comments for 30+ years also. Is he a legend???

    There were very few wealthy conservative political elites in Europe who didn't admire the Nazis as they rose to power. Given that Philip fought with the allied naval forces in WWII, I'm taking it that he changed his views in that regard.

    Robert Mugabe has actual power. Prince Philip doesn't - he's like the crazy uncle who insults at least two cousins at Christmas dinner and then dozes off on the couch where he farts occasionally while muttering in his sleep.

    Why didn't Tubridy just shut the fukc up? He's just a fukcing international embarassment. Everything he does or says is just cringeworthy in general.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,653 ✭✭✭Ghandee


    Tubridy will hardly be able to contain himself on this m:rolleyes:ornings show I bet!
    He'll hardly do the world a favour and 'forget' yesterday would he?

    Like all aspects of the Royal Visit HRH's verbals have been meticulously planned in advance
