Re: Feedback: Gubu censorship

Given your delightful use of the English language I find it hard to believe that you received the benefit of a third level education in TCD or anywhere else for that matter. You don’t need a maths degree to know what a 1:1 from Trinners adds up to, my friend. Followed by a MSc and a PhD from the sa...

Re: Feedback: Gubu censorship

The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about. The only inaccuracy here was suggesting I went to NUIG. I’m not stupid, Trinners man here. Maybe some of the other so-called scutter junkies did. The idea we are all the one poster or indeed in cahoots at all is laughable and a ...

Re: The Next General Election

Will be voting FG 1 and 2 and leaving it at that. Used to give a preference to Labour, but that ship is due for the scrap yard now.

Re: Dee Forbes resigns as head of RTÉ

Ryan Tubridy, the "conscience" of a nation who used the plight of homeless children to justify an elaborate lie about reduction in salary. "Burnt out and exhausted" he is, slaving five hours per week can be quite debilitating. All that frantic hand waving and table banging, a on...

Re: Dee Forbes resigns as head of RTÉ

Jesus, there’s a huge of complete oddballs in the Current Affairs thread about this in CA. Do those people ever leave the house? Sad auld life for them tbh. You’d wonder if the internet has destroyed them.

Re: France is fiery post & thread ban

Some people just aren’t able for message boards, Twitter, Reddit and the like. Some people take it all far too seriously, others have difficulties handling their emotions, and others are simply too stupid to contribute anything of value to discussions.

The guy seems to be a crank and conspiracy theorist peddling lies and misinformation to a gullible audience of halfwits and conspiracy theorists.

Re: Hate Speech Law

Why in the name of Jaysus would you download, watch and store a video of a mass shooting and a beheading?

Weird tbh and not sure what it has to do with hate speech laws. Just comes across as incredibly antisocial behaviour.

Re: Unreadable books - your top picks

Read about 10 pages on a kindle preview of that 12 Rules for Life by that absolute chancer and charlatan Jordan Peterson. Complete drivel and you’d want to take a good long look at yourself if you thing his advice is worth listening to.

Re: PwC warns clients to sell assets before Sinn Féin gets into power

There will be no one more disappointing by SF in Government than diehard Shinners. They’ve been promised a socialist utopia, but they’ll have to deal with the realities of bond maturation, fiscal policy, demographic changes etc etc. They also need to drop Pearse. He’s great at shouting and finger-po...

Re: Best restaurant in Dublin

Guilbaud’s has had its two stars for many years now, and is very much in the canon of classic French haute cuisine. I personally prefer Chapter One, which is also grounded in the same techniques, but with more modern touches. Glover’s Alley only has one star, but I’d rate it as being almost as good ...

It’s a broader question than this thread, but why do so many dorks, dweebs, and neckbeards have such admiration for V Putin?

Re: Who will you vote for at the next General Election?

FG 1st and 2nd preference, 3rd to the Labour candidate, then out the door.

Not into parties offering easy solutions to complex problems, or manufactured Twitter outrage.
