Non red haired people are making a bigger deal of this.

Seriously, stop cock blocking me. I just need to convince my girlfriend to let me go.

Amongst my peers,my red haired friends are,for the most part,excellent swordsmen.The cynical side of me says this is an attempt to fill a nightclub in the arsehole of Donegal on a drab tues night.That said,I hope all the socially inept red haired lads get their hole,and wish them the best.

The local PP was on George Hook . Apparently someone complained to him,for some reason.
Of course if one person complains it takes precedent over everybody else's opinion.

Some of the newspaper articles are like something from Waterford Whispers. The fecken local priest ringing the gardai about it! And surprise surprise, the catholic priest is against casual sex and contraception.

[QUOTE=Management at a Donegal Nightclub have done a u-turn after a controversial promotion caused uproar with parents.

The 'Shag A Ginger' night planned for tonight at Pulse Nightclub in Letterkenny hit the headlines because of objections from local parents.

Even local Glenfinn priest, Fr Lorcan O Searcaigh labelled the event as a disgrace.

The nightclub claimed however, that the event was only a bit of fun.

They had planned to give out condoms and to even have a hairdresser at the club to help people dye their hair.

However, the club has now rowed back on their ambitious plans and apologised for any offence caused.

Pulse management have now confirmed the original event has been changed to ‘Kiss Me, I’m Ginger’.

In a statement they said: “Given recent controversy surrounding a promotional poster advertising the event, the management have removed it and wish to make it clear it was not their intention to cause insult or offence to anyone.

“The promotion of such events on student nights are commonplace throughout the county and have occurred in the past without knowingly causing offence.”

LYIT Student Union say the event has nothing to do with them.[/QUOTE]

Colour me shocked... :eek::eek::eek::eek:

The use of 'even' gives this sentence a rather bizarre emphasis...

The nightclub should have given the priest the middle finger.

Now he has won. Next he will be on the look out for his next moral crusade.

J Mysterio · 07-10-2015 01:31PM

Tbh, had I advance knowledge amd where I in the area, would probably have popped over given I have orange hair.

Pretty awesome.

sbsquarepants · 07-10-2015 01:35PM

I have basically treated every day since puberty as a shag a ginger day. Sometimes I even managed to convince a ginger to play along. Those were good days:D

In our modern free-spoken society
There is a word that we still hold taboo
A word with a terrible history
Of being used to abuse, oppress and subdue
Just six seemingly harmless letters
Arranged in a way that will form a word
With more power than the pieces of metal
That are forged to make swords

A couple of Gs, an R and an E, an I and an N
Just six little letters all jumbled together
Have caused damage that we may never mend
And it's important that we all respect
That if these people should happen to choose
To reclaim the word as their own
It doesn't meant the rest of you have a right to it's use

So never under estimate
The power that language imparts
Sticks and stones may break your bones
But words can break hearts
A couple of Gs - jeez, unless you've had to live it
An R and an E - even I am careful with it
An I and an N - and in the end it will only offend
Don't want to have to spell it out again...

Yeah

Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger

S***-A-Ginger-Night.
