Irish Blog Awards shortlist announced

You can see all the shortlisted nominations for yourself right here.

Thanks to everyone who voted for me and now it’s down to the judges. Word is they’re being sequestered immediately and won’t be allowed out until after the ceremony.

What happens if Rick O’Shea wins the Best Contribution category? He’s going to say, “And the winner is…me!”, and nobody will believe him and people will storm the stage and he’ll get crushed to death. A good death is probably what the blog scene needs to kick on in 2007 and if Rick is serious about making a contribution then he knows what to do.

Then next year it can be the Rick O’Shea memorial award. Nah, fuck it actually. That’s way too mawkish. We’ll just stare at the spot on the carpet that they couldn’t get the blood out of.

Anyway, Jimmy the Bollix says he wants to go along this year. Something to do with settling some old scores with some people. I don’t know who though. It’ll just add to the excitement.

    It’s too easy.Alexander Hotel on March 3rd:
    I’ll be outside in a Hyundai van, tooled up with
    the plasma rifle I surgio-technicologically spirited
    out of my young fella’s Halo 2 on the Xbox.
    All of ye mundane blogging bolloxi had better have appropriate
    protective vest and underpants on for I’m out for a cull.

    In all serious frankness, I had a glance at the blogsite
    nominations and I’m semi-dead with loss. I encounter far wittier, wiser,
    more politically and philosophically challenging ideas
    in the disco car-park in Letterfrack at 3am when dribbling
    Lithuanians are chawing shit with the local knacker intelligentia.
    Please block me from all these sites.Yours sincerely, A Wellwisher

  2. Oh yeah, bitch. It’s ON.

    I shall be wearing my hobnailed boots for Rick. What of you? Will you be dashing and smashing?

  3. Twenty Major says:

    I’m not really into the whole rioting as part of a crowd thing. I’ll certainly cheer you on though.

  4. kav says:

    Congrats to you twenty, best of luck.

  5. Make a banner. Otherwise I shall call you a spoilsport.

  6. Janice PID says:

    Yes Twenty, all your fans down Mountshannon way (that’s me, Karel, Viktor, and Orla) can barely contain our excitement. We’ve got our fingers, eyes, teeth, and legs (well not our legs – they’re never crossed) for you!

  7. Twenty Major says:

    Would a placard do?

  8. Ralph says:

    This Janice bird sounds a bit of a whoer.

  9. Well done Twenty. I think given my experience with plasma grenades and other Halo technology, meself and JC will happily take care of Damien Fucking Rice.

    I’m hoping for a French style pointless riot, where we just beat the face off Gardai because frankly, a 35 hour working week is just too long for the poor Frogs.

  10. porridge says:

    nice one twenty.

  11. Well done on your “Scientlology” podcast nomination, Twenty. I was in my lollerskates when I heard it.

  12. Tricia says:

    aaah 20 – you’re a shoo in.

  13. Nicely done Twenty. I hope the judges don’t react against your sweep of last year.

    And when are you going to start videocasting?

  14. Rick says:

    I’ll cut you a deal – you come up and announce that category while I go get you that glass of Um Bongo…..?

  15. Twenty Major says:

    Um Bongo, my one weakness…

  16. trucker says:

    You’r worse than TESCO……..
