Nothing to say except…
Posted in Old blogger by Twenty Major on April 28th, 2005
So should I say that I’ve got nothing to say or just not say anything at all?
Actually I should say thanks to Kev who told me the two unfunny blokes on that RTE show were Jason Byrne and Kevin Gildea. Having just turned on the TV to catch the news this morning who should I see but Byrne on TV3 making a joke about the Pope being dead and his kid saying “Oh no! What happened to santa?”
Now, a quick Google shows up this thread on some kind of Scottish nerd forum from April 3rd - more than three weeks ago. And this thread from another forum on the same day.
So not only is Jason Byrne not funny he steals his material from the internet.
Apparently he’s playing at Vicar Street soon. Are you allowed heckle somebody with a baseball bat?

Jason Byrne is the funniest stand-up I’ve ever seen,I honestly left the venue in pain from laughing so much.

I blogged on that Santa bit the day the Pope died, when I told how I pointed to him and told my kids “Look! Santa’s dead!”
Filthy cunt lifted it from ME!

I *knew* I’d read it somewhere else but those two forums were the only places that showed up when I searched.

No bother, Twenty.
There are still many cunts left to be named. I know too many.
As for Jason Byrne, maybe he thought of it all by himself. Maybe it’s pure coincidence that others had the same idea. But probably not.
