Pink Pony Club has a guitar solo so it's not gay. They're just wicked dreams. Wicked dreams that'll stay dreams. But wicked nonetheless.
Other night, I saw a cat by bushes near my house.Today, I saw a Missing Cat poster and looked through said bushes. Kids playing football started shouting 'what are you doing in the bushes'. I text the owner. The cat was found and she forgot to take down the poster. I, meanwhile, look like a paedo.
How many one-sided beefs do you have with Irish arts organisations? Just the one? Alright Mother Theresa.
My favourite scene in The Odyssey is when they visit an island named after The Irish Traditional Italian Chippers Association
Taking my copies of Conversations with Friends to the police for the Rooney Amnesty and being given a freshly printed Jeffrey Archer novel for each one I bring in
2006: Is anyone going up to the North to get some bangers? 2026: Is anyone going down South to get some Sally Rooney novels?
I’ve seen some people dismiss this as “a stunt” by Rooney because they can’t fathom someone actually standing on principle over money How small must your mind be and corrupted your soul to think like that. I promise you a better world is possible

Keep getting those toxic emails from Wikipedia. "You used to love me in 2016 Dave, donating all the time. My how you've changed! But I'm better off without you! You'll see!"
Second Captains deserve major credit in getting George Gibney behind bars. This is probably the best example of journalism in recent years.
Digger reminds of the phrase 'throwing digs'. At teenage discos, lads would start 'throwing digs' becuase they were from different towns in Kildare. Lads from Leixlip would start throwing digs at lads who happened to be from the other side of Leixlip. Worse than The Spartans.

It's criminal that our English curriculum doesn't discuss how many of our nation's greatest poets and writers were alcoholic perverts that had WWE-style rivalries with one another.

Love how I couldn't immediately remember how to play Senorita on Justin Timberlake on guitar. Proud of my brain for offloading that information.
I guess the residents of Garvaghy Rd wont get to find out who won The Battle of Boyne. Not quite sure myself either. Mind's gone blank
A Nelson Mandela statue was unveiled in Glasgow yesterday. Well…
No Scene and Heard festival in Dublin this year because of affordability. Well done to everyone squeezing all of the joy out of the city.
My old workplace has made the mother of all fuck ups (it's made the Daily Mail) So the fuck up I made previously has been downgraded to a whoopsy.
Folks, I need some advice. I'm looking for a word to describe an event that's going to be spectacular but also incorporates its Halloween theme? RTs appreciated X
It is VERY interesting how childcare is so expensive, but their workers (who are in charge of the welfare of children) get paid so badly. But the Irish government needs to keep paying these private companies over and over and over.

you know when the idea for a tweet comes to you nine years too late? like my brain, unbidden, just produced the thought “an indecisive Irish judge called Ruth B’fhéidir Ginsberg”. or maybe I did tweet it at the time. nothing matters anyway.
I love that the more famous CMAT gets, the wider the blast radius gets for Bertie Ahern’s roasting. It also helps that he definitely cares about this. I hope witnessing entire arenas singing his name pejoratively makes him feel the first shame of his life
Stay with me on this folks but how about a round 2 of the Battle of the Boyne? Im convinced the english arent bothered this time
Mr Beast and James Patterson have a novel coming out together and I am relatively secure in the assumption that neither is aware.
Man City caught cheating, and Ronaldo has a hissy fit cos he was dropped for one game. Like Sinead O'Connor, this bald queen deserves an apology.
I suffer from regency bias which means that I believe a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
