    An idiot, and a dangerous one. Actually, I'm just playing into her hands. IT'S A TRAP!

    Also known as a Johnny Logan with cheese.

    She's an absolute laughing stock over in the wescht. There is a whole thread dedicated to her and her scandals & antics and ridiculous behaviour in the Galway forum. Flipping looper.

    Something very Mrs Doyle about her...'next they'll be ridin' on facebook, then what?!??!'

    No words.

    She broke the golden rule

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

    ...........

    She's a member of the Seanad and as a public figure deserves both respect and deference for her work on our behalf.


    ....in my hairy arse she does

    Oddly, I was expecting that to be about opening her gob. Jaysus knows why.

    Given how long WiFi has been around for, that it's a pretty integral part in modern life, and she's probably said it like that a million times, then surely someone would have gone, "wait, what?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,299 ✭✭✭✭MadsL


    A friend of mine, now a software engineer, has called it Whiffy for years. Never got it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭SimonTemplar


    What stupid point was she attempting to make? Obviously it is only a brief extract of her speech, but her exasperated "yeah" at the end suggests she thinks asking for the "whiffy code" is horrendous.

    This women has no clue how technology works in modern society. Makes sense then that she is debating it in the Seanad :rolleyes:

    For a second there I thought the thread title was:

    'The Whiffy Code - Jessica Brown Findlay'.

    Thought we were in for a sequel :P

    But gettin the whiffy code leads teens into sex and debauchery on the internets where the little fookersangels send dirty pictures to each other and do sexting on their smartarse phones, Next they will be riding sideways till the cows come home and the priest will have to be called about getting them churched and the baby christened.

    That whole internet should be cleaned up or banned, if the Chinese can do it then why not Galway?

    Feck. She is the love child of Father Ted and hairybaby.ie.

    I imagine the inner workings of her head might look something like...

    Healy Eames graduated from both Carysfort College, Western Connecticut State University in the USA, and NUI Galway, holding B.Ed., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees respectively.[4] She was a primary school teacher and college lecturer in teacher education.[1]

    Business career[edit]
    Her various appointments include: former Chairperson of County Galway VEC, member of Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology (GMIT) Governing Body, member of HSE West Regional Forum, director of Galway Airport, member of Galway City and County Enterprise Board, member of Western Rail Committee and member of Galway Arts Centre Board.[6] She is Director of her own business, FHE Education and Training Providers.[6]

    n March 2015 she attracted press attention for a tweet in which she claimed that were Ireland to legally recognise same-sex marriage, it could mean an end to the celebration of Mothers Day in the country. As evidence, she claimed that various U.S. states had banned Mothers Day and Fathers Day, referring to it as "political correctness gone mad".[14] When critics pointed out that her claim regarding U.S. states was untrue, she retracted that statement, commenting that she meant to refer to a number of U.S. schools.[15][16]

    In defending her comments, Healy Eames cited as her source Rense.com, a website run by Jeff Rense, a conspiracy theorist known for Holocaust denial, and criticised by the Anti-Defamation League.[17] Critics in the Yes to same-sex marriage campaign accused her of employing scare tactics ahead of the May 2015 referendum on the issue.[16]

    mind boggled

    mind boggled

    Well, that's what happens when you eat too many whiffy codes in the restaurant. You boggle. It starts with the mind, but it doesn't stop there! In no time at all you'll be boggling from your head to your toes.

    The only cure is holy water. Lourdes is best but Knock'll do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 497 ✭✭Retrovertigo


    "Question, when you walk into a restaurant and you ask them do you have the whiffy-cnut? Yeah."

    Honestly sounds like it.

    I'd say people are regretting not abolishing the Seanad, instead condoning giving unelected eejits like this a cushy job and a soapbox for 5 years at a time.

    While I'm all for having a laugh at her expense, we call it "Wiffy" all the time in NL. The Fraping thing was funny but tbh aren't there smarter jokes to be made about the woman?

    True, We should be entitled to elect our Seanad though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,222 ✭✭✭✭PopePalpatine


    My first thought when I read this thread title was of Wiffy.ie from back in the day.

    OK...maybe not that far back, more like 5-10 years ago.

    It would be a wonderful excuse for her to suggest she was using the Dutch pronunciation all along :pac:

    I am. :)

    Which in itself is ridiculous.

    To be honest, the bigger joke is that she was unsuccessful in 3 general elections, yet has been a member of the Seanad for 8 years.
