    Everybody has a seamus. Saying you have no seamus is liek saying you're infallible. Everybody needs a rock. Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow. Everybody needs a seamus.

    How is saying there's nobody I trust 100% on all matters and all subjects like saying I'm infallible?

    There are a few posters whose posts I find myself often in agreement with, but it's still early days too early to be giving out 'seamus' badges....

    I have no rock, that's the truth. Nobody to lean on, nobody to dry my tears.....:(

    Like Toblerone, I'm out on my own.

    She closed her account :(

    Such a shame, usually the voice of reason in any debate. Will be missed

    Apart from that, you're bang on the money.
    As one of the original boards groupies Pighead's guessing that you have thrown yourself at the altar of seamus at some point over the years.

    Could Pighead be so rude as to ask you if he is as kind and considerate a lover as one would imagine?

    Wibbs

    The posts are so long I don't read all of them
    But there is bound to be sense and intelligent points in there

    The only way Pighead would re-examine is if seamus told him it was the right thing to do. Until then there will be no re-examining of anything. 100% faith in that man. If he said pink was blue then Pighead would be wearing pink underpants in the morning. 100%.
    Of course pink isn't blue, don't be silly.

    Although a little-known fact you may not be aware of is that washing powder is simply made from dried egg and flavouring and so just a scoop of Persil in a pint of water makes a rather ripping health shake. This is why it's called "biological" powder.

    Welcome back Pighead

    Freaked out level = 3

    And that's why they call him 'The postman'. seamus always delivers. Pighead has been told seven interesting factoids today but the above is far and away the most interesting.

    And that's why he's Pighead's seamus.

    Can I ask you something, is there any forum on Boards you haven't posted in? :pac:

    And chance the wrath of Mrs. seamus?
    Not even I, am that brave.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,001 ✭✭✭Mr. Loverman


    She closed her account :(

    In fairness she found it hard dealing with people who had different opinions to her, so it was probably for the best.

    MAJD, before she went into semi-retirement and changed her name, was everyone's seamus. She was probably even seamus' seamus, truth be told. And the truth was always told. And you'd laugh, and you'd shake your head and you'd say "actually, I have nothing to add to that". She indirectly invented +1 and, by extension, the thanks system.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    I don't think there's a poster I agree with on everything. Nodin is a shinner; bluewolf doesn't like sport; Dudess has left the building.

    But seamus is nearly always right on nearly everything. Seamus is a pro: he (nearly) never misses. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 37,870 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    My seamus is seamus.

    Different seamus though. Purely coincidental the name is the exact same.

    My seamuses would probably be starbelgrade, ibarelycare, krudler, Beruthiel and Novella.

    They're the ones who probably get freaked out by me thanking zillions of their posts. :o It's not that I stalk them, it's just that we seem to frequent the same threads/forums and I tend to agree with them lots! :o

    On that note you have Pighead's full permission to disclose all the details of our brief and torrid love affair in your forthcoming autobiography. Miss Piggy understands that there were women before her. How could there not have been?

    Seamus(with a small s) and Scofflaw.



    Cordially,

    your admirerer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭pajunior


    Weird I've a real life Seamus who is called Seamus!

    On Boards there is a guy on the Rugby forum called Germ, I have never seen a single poster ever try and disagree with him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,062 ✭✭✭number10a


    I reckon like many others, Dudess was my seamus. I'll never be able to get a replacement seamus, but bannasidhe, Ellis Dee and Bluewolf come in very closely. I've just noticed that on a forum with about 75% male users (me included), all my seamuses are wimmen!

    Probably Run_to_Da_Hills

    Amongst all the other crap on here, you can pretty much guarantee that all of his/her posts are logical, rational, well thought out factual arguments.

    A beacon of truth.

    Sometime, he should try to not refer to himself in the 3rd person :pac:

    Hmm I thought we weren't allowed circle jerk threads in AH anymore?

    They do get a bit nauseating.

    I just googled 'circle jerk' coz I didn't know what it meant.
    I'm sorry I did now :(

    I agree normally and this is the first one I've posted in but pighead gave me warm fuzzies :D

    This is actually a subtle social experiment on the part of Pighead to see if he can introduce a new noun into the modern lexicon of a "seamus", in much the same way that we use "google" as a verb meaning "to do a web search".

    60 posts in and people are already freely using the word as if it were always there.

    I don't know if I'm flattered, or horrifically embarrssed because I fall so painfully short of the intended meaning of this new noun.

    Can be used as a verb as well eg I thought today's exam was going to be tough but I absolutely seamused it.

    Gummy me old buddy. No need to be an old bitter balls. Pighead is just expressing his admiration for probably the greatest living man in the world. Fawning, creepy, stalkerish and uncomfortable it may be but it's all strictly above the belt and absolutely non-jerkish.

    1. Not a favourite poster but I do like some posters more than others of course. Seamus has a scaaary ability to write exactly whats in my head for example. Its freaky.

    Definitely more than a passing resemblence there. ;)
