Grammar/punctuation issues in the title? Really? I wish I knew how to fix them. Oh well.
Gezza says that the visit of the Queen would cause ‘offence’ to many people in Ireland. Kind of like him topping the poll in Louth. I found that offensive. And the more you listen to him the more you realise he’s got nothing to say. He talks a lot but says little that isn’t just the tedious platitudes of a man who thinks he’s far more intelligent than he actually is.
The unfortunate thing is that his election means we’ll have to hear much more of him than any person should. He doesn’t speak on behalf of the people of Ireland no matter how much he thinks he does.
Anyway, while I regard the visit of the Queen entirely pointless and fruitless, I hope Prince Phillip will be along. Fans of casual racism will have something to look forward to.
“You there, filthy little leprechaun, get me another drink”
“Ahh, Prince Phillip, I see you’ve been introduced to Enda Kenny”.
Magic.
Hahahaha…Prince Phillip is such a bigoted moron.
Booooooo…Gerry Adams is such a bigoted moron.
Is that the basic hypocrisy of this post Twenty?
have to admire a man who so clearly doen’t give a fuck
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1848553.stm
I didn’t say Gerry Adams was a bigoted moron.
Amazing that Gerry thinks a visit by an elderly woman will cause offence…she never anally raped any children as far as I’m aware or covered up for those that did. Now if the pope was going to do a gig in Dublin, the same offended fuckers would be waving a foreign flag that represents a foreign country that did cover up abuse of children. By the way, were Irish mothers and fathers burning said flag when all that horror was revealed? Let the woman come, and as you say, her hubby is bound to drop a few clangers. As a smoker you of all people should love her.
from now on when I hear Gerry Adams I’ll be associating Kenny with him
ah here. fuck it
http://i51.tinypic.com/8xvspk.jpg
Do you think that they should have dropped the Y from Our Day Will Come after the revelations concerning Gerry Adams father?
He didnt seem to mind offending the family of some of the people he ordered the murders of by running for office in the
dumping groundCounty where they were buried.. The paedo hiding cunt..Fair enough Twenty. Maybe I read too much into it.
Paddy Powers should open a book on the offensive terms Philip will come out with.
Evens – Leprechaun reference
3/1 – Paddy/Mickey/Seamus reference
10/1 – Paddy Irish man joke
1000/1 – Mountbatten head and shoulders joke
I’d put a score on the Mountbatten one.
Gerry Adams is ignored by most people.
Queenie Eye O is ignored by most people.
Phil the Greek is hilarious, a relic from an era that never existed in Ireland, except maybe amongst the wannabe West Brits, of whom there are still quite a few.
Her coming here is like some weird social experiment, a bit like the Human Centipede, a mad schlock horror which I watched last night.
As long as nobody tries to graft Enda Kenny’s head to Queenie’s arse, we’ll be alright.
It’s all about the weirdo in the presidential palace too. Her unelected term of office is coming to a close so she wants to come out with more pious garbage. She’ll probably do a Philip too and spout irrational nonsense about the holocaust. She don’t say too much about the pope covering up child abuse. She’s freaky deaky. Gimme big bird anyday.
Mary Mc is a god loving FFer
I for one welcome the Queen to come and have the arse bored off her by Enda and Mary and all the other tossers who will greet her when she arrives. In the meantime Gerry Adams should grow the fuck up and stop fighting which ever war he thinks he’s still fighting (Independance? Civil? The Troubles? WWll? The Boer War? Call of Duty 4?)
And Silla – thoughts on the Human Centipede?
I can’t stand Mary McAleese and her preaching in her special preachy voice.
Or her meddley denty unelected husband.
I resent having to pay for her to fawn all over Ulster, while kissing the Pope’s ring.
I resent the fact that she was a reporter for RTE and now she’s walking round like her shit don’t smell.
In fact, I hate everything she stands for, and this latest folly is just her way of putting herself into the history books, which always becomes the main aim for self promoters (ie. Charlie Haughey, Bertie Aherne, Gerry Adams, etc…) at this stage of the game.
Mary Mc is a god loving FFer
Says it all, really.
Every word an insult.
Crank, I have to say it wasn’t the worst.
I was kinda dreading it, cos everyone was telling me how vile it is, but for a cheapo schlock horror, it did what it says on the tin.
Not very graphic, though, which I expected it to be.
I thought the bird in the middle of the shit sandwich got a raw deal, however I presume that’s a lesson for women everywhere to only speak when spoken to.
Or never piss off the mad doctor with the scalpel in the room, particularly when you’re manacled to a bed.
Overall, the acting was bad, the script was melodramatic, but the plot was brilliant.
I would have liked to see the Three Dog Centipede, but I suppose you can’t have everything.
I look forward to the sequel, The Human Millipede.
For a movie with such a grotesque premise and sadistic overtones it was remarkably coy about nudity. Like American films with gargantuan body counts and extreme violence and language which refuse to show any nudity on decency grounds. Americans – they’re odd as fuck.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1IReGYKsyM
“Americans – they’re odd as fuck.”
Some would say stupid by virtue of their excellent education(al) system.
:) thanks crank
bop ’til you drop
as johnny says “Riiiiightttttt!”
I’ve always been puzzled by the contradiction that it’s acceptable to show women being penetrated by everything under the sun, except for a mickey.
What a strange artifical world we live in.
I meant fake, as I obviously can’t spell artificial.
silla queenie eye o lol ‘ that was a game in dublin long time ago
Showing me age, OTD!
…Who has the ball?
Is he big or is he small…?
Can just imagine Sinn Fein supporters arriving from the North to abuse the old queen…I think they must be regretting the fact that the British Crown protected the arses of the generations across the border (both prod and papist) while we were having ours lorried out of it sans lube by the clergy (we ourselves of course). Republicanism really does fucking lack a little bit of imagination. Give the lady a buch of lillies when she arrives at the airport.
“bunch” …sorry
Bit unfair on Leprechauns to include Enda in the membership list.
After the horrible crimes of the British towards both protestant and catholic Irish men, women and children for hundreds of years I do find it offensive that their queen is coming on a casual visit to see how the little people are doing and wave her gloved claw around. Subjects are visited by royalty and it’s bad enough feeling like a subject of these bunch of cunts in this country without remnants of imperials powers projecting their ‘power’.
Loved that Enda/leprechaun idea.
I read recently about two films in the states being presented to the censor – the slash horror with the woman being mutilated is considered fine n dandy entertainment, but they banned the scene in the other film that showed… a woman having an orgasm.
Chop them up, but whatever you do, WHATEVER YOU DO, don’t let them come!!
We don’t want them getting ideas Jo. God forbid.
(By the way, the wife wants to know – what’s an orgasm?)
Crank, you must be viewing censored Merican movies. In the States nudity is considered to be necessary to the artistic quality of a film. The more tit and ass the higher the quality of the film. At least that’s what the producers tell the dumb young twats who act in them.
Johnny 390:You’re on the money about our public schools. They’re in the toilet because of the left wing Liberal loonie feel good policies that have been imposed in the system. Teacher’s have discovered that it’s easier to dumb down the smart kids than it is to pull up the dumb kids. Ergo, they are all dumb fuckers who feel good about themselves. The kids as well.
Got to love the League of Decency Jo.
An orgasm is a man thing Crank.
Baron Iddums can shut his incitement hole and do us all a big favour.
Whatever one thinks of the British Royals (I’m with Spitting Image’s take on them) Baron Iddums should tell us which of his heroic friends hid up a tree and waited so they could, in the name of Ireland, intentionally blew up an auld lad and some young lads off for a day’s fishing. I’m still offended by that and I’m still offended by Baron Iddums and all his cowardly, racketeering chums.
I find it fascinating that the ability to forelock tug and cast aspersions on those who object to a sectarian unelected monarch currently occupying part of this nation coming to visit is somehow considered the measure of one’s modernity or civility.
Betty ain’t welcome, not until she pulls out of the country she occupies. That other unelected twonk McAleese is showboating for the history books here, having achieved fuck all except a passport for a UDA murderer during her millennia in office.
Go out and wave your Jackeen flags at de kween in Dublin if you must. Since the state is now bankrupt once again thanks to Fianna Failure, and we’re effectively just a poorly performing German banking asset due to their economic treason, I suppose the portrayal of a visit of a British monarch to a failed state half-nation is merely the last nail in the coffin of the concept of Irish independence anyway.

Hold your horses there, Skinner, don’t be casting aspersions at us Dubs. We never said anything about waving flags, or being enamoured of a foreign monarchy.
Everything is not automatically our fault, you know.
It’s culchies, by and large that supported and continue to support FF.
Without excusing the actions of the IRA (Teebane, Enniskillen, etc are absolute disgraces and should never ever be forgotten) I don’t think the Irish should ever be lectured on the morality of conflict by the British, and most certainly not when referencing Moutbatten, a man who with the stroke of hundreds of thousands but was still the favourite uncle of the next british monarch.
It won’t be culchies cheering Betty in Dublin, Silla.

Three quarters of the population of the whole country live in Dublin, you can’t make us natives responsible for everything that happens here.
But of course culchies are always the innocent victims of big bad Dubs
You really don’t know what you’re talking about, this visit hasn’t even happened yet.
Where you get the idea from that Dublin is full of Queenie-loving amnesiacs is a mystery to me.
I will be acting like a true republican and treating her visit with all the attention it deserves.
None.
I couldn’t give a shit about her visit, and no-one outside a coterie of uppity wankstains and sad sack communists will either.
I cna’t imagine anyone gives a shit, unless it’s about the money we don’t hve that will be wasted on security etc. I cna’t imagine she wants to visit either. The whole thing is such a depressing waste.
Agreed, Jo.
I find the whole thing a bit bizarre.
The assumption that we’re all interested is probably based on the idea that none of us have anything more important to occupy us.
Cos everything here is going so well.
Thats all it looks like to me.
Probably from the hordes of cheering Dubs the last time a Brit monarch came by for tea, Silla.
Look, I’m not trying to have a go at native Dubliners, but there is a reason they’re called Jackeens. If Betty tries to visit Monaghan or Kerry or Connemara, she won’t face hordes of anything other than raindrops and tumbleweed.
All the forelock tuggers, be they native Dubliner or not, live in the capital. That’s where Hello! magazine sells out everytime that gimp Wills is on the cover, not Ballina.
Yes, there is a spectrum of opinion on this issue in Dublin as everywhere else in Ireland. All the more reason it shouldn’t happen in my opinion. After all, there wouldn’t be any spectrum of opinion if the Queen of the Netherlands came for a visit. There would be just a collective ‘”Grand, so.”
But you have to admit that for all the Dubs voting for Mary Lou and Christy, there’s ten times as many voting Shane Ross, buying Hello! every time there’s a royal feature and pissing their knickers over the chance to show what mature little Irish people they are by cheering the arrival of an unelected German granny with a racist Greek husband whose armies are parked in our country.
THE SHOW GETS EVEN MORE ENTERTAINING.
Are we really that naive that we don’t know this visit is a ploy to take our eye off the ball? Yes, we are gobshites.
I am not opposed to the ole ladie coming to out fair shores as long as she pays for the security, entertainment etc. I am sure they will we able to find a B&B in Lower Gardiner street somewhere.
God shave the queen!
I’m sure there are enough of the landed gentry still around who would not mind giving her the back room for a few days. Watch the brownnosing bluenoses falling over each other to get in the photographs. Jaysus Wept.
Should be interesting watching the plantation slaves fawning over Betty or Bennie and quite possibly both over the next year or two.
Cultural inbuilt peasantry in action. Eoghan Harris must have the cock half wanked off himself already.
why all of a sudden is the queen and the pope and obama winging their way to ireland
Playing to a couple of different galleries and the plebs need circuses when there is not much bread. Obama shoring up the green democrat vote in the green cities of the US while probably stopping off at Downing Street to pass on new instructions.
With Bennie its the forlorn hope that a pope with no personal charisma or charm can somehow stop the Irish peasants complaining about childrape by its local subsidiary. The Queen because it somehow plays to the ongoing GFA process of normalisation of relations between two islands and sucks up to the Mansergh element within the Irish establishment- the grovelling civil servant and the anglo ascendancy mob within the Irish heritage organisations who are there to keep open the links between the old landed gentry in Ireland and the crown in England.
Just watch the guest lists.
O’Bama – Moneygall needs the money.
I think I should call Ryan Turbridy with my news.
Last night I spoke with Colonel Ghaddafi’s representative who wanted me to relate the fact to Enda Kenny that everything in Libya was kosher. There was promise of money. Weird dream. It must be true though Tubs, eh?
Ryan Turbridy makes me feel as uncomfortable as Mary McAleese and Queen Elizabeth would talking about the holocaust.
Ireland v India
We’re 150 for 5 off 35 overs. O’Brien just got caught and bowled.
C’mon Ireland. We need some fucking runs. Step on it
170 for 6. we need 250 at least.
I’m going to stroll around the block and dream about it and then ring ryan turbridy to make it a fact
this made me smile and then grimace
The headline above the foldover in The Sunday Independent is “Voter Betrayal”
I thought “Wow. Jody Corcoran has finally admitted that Fianna Fail anf the cunts who voted for Fianna Fail betrayed us.”
Nope. The Sunday Independent is saying that Fine Gael and Labour have betrayed their voters. And they aren’t in governement to betray them.
Jody Corcoran and Denis O’Brien and Sir Anthony Lord Rennicks O’Reilly give you this.
http://www.inmplc.com/investor-relations/share-information?page=share-price-chart&returnPeriod=1Y&period=3Y&fromDay=-&fromMonth=-&fromYear=-&toDay=-&toMonth=-&toYear=-
And they still cheer on using Fianna Failers like Willia O’Dea and Bertie Aherns ex-girlfriend. Shane Ross makes me pick my nose too.
England just beat South Africa. India looking excelllent. Shit
I have just as much appetite to see Obama or the pope here as I do the queen of England, i.e absolutely none whatsoever.
Are we supposed to be honored by the presence of either one of these cretins? Give me a break will ye.
If they want to take peoples eye off the ball they should have Charlie Sheen do a speech at the top of O’Connell street. That I’d like to see.
Yeah but Charlie Sheen may be off his box but they still can’t be sure of him to (a) renew a call to ‘traditional values (b) remind us all of what authority looks like.
Thats why the queen and the pope are booked for those shindigs instead of Charlie Sheen. And lets face it neither of them are exactly lookers.
We should have a big bonfire and burn both of the fuckers while the Artane band plays a merry jig in the background.
Failing that conspicuously ignore both of them which will get their representatives in Ireland in hot water. Which is almost as good as the bonfire I proposed earlier.
Reading the document banged out between Labour and Fine Gael I see that the blaspemy bullshit is going to be fucked out but i don’t see any aspiration in the document relating towards arresting, charging, jailing so called “white collar criminals” i.e. politicians, bankers, legal firms, accounting firms etc
Still no arrests.
How long will we be saying it?
Apart from the fact that there’s absofuckinglutely ZERO reason for the queen to visit here, (why would she even want to?) how much is the bill going to be for the security her visit will require? I’m sure the invoice for the entertainment, catering etc won’t be insignificant either. Why is the state doing this when we have a non-functioning health service? What fucking moron had the bright idea in the first place?
Surely there’s a context where SF can be acceptable ? I’m no fan but I remember the Divis flats and before that, the B specials. I remember the H&W shipyards and Shortts where no taig ever worked – the hunger strikes and the protest marches – Newry border crossing and a psyched out of his head teenager , face blacked out drew a bead on me with his rifle from a pillbox – the helicopter landing and the hostility to perfect strangers . Midnight busts, men pulled from their beds and interned . And if you spoke with a dub or culchie accent in 70’s London, well you were fucking paddy and a poor 2nd class.
It’s too easy to tut-tut as the Sinners – criticize their populist ranting – yes go ahead and why not, that’s what they are – but bring a bit of balance to a debate about their existence. Ask John Hume.
I repeat, i’m no fan.
That Windsor women – inner city council house dweller – institutionalised to social welfare – dysfunctional family – horse shit all over her gaff – bring on Obama though .

She can stay in Lower Gardiner Street. It is very central.
What if we invite Sturbanfuhrer Ratzinger, sorry Pope Benny the whetever, & Betty Windsor over at the same time. We could have them headlining a WWF style gig out in the park. Maybe build a full card & sell the TV rights. It would be cheaper than paying for either of them to come & not be shot at.
Mary McA vs Mary Robinson for the undisputed best woman president (gucci) belt. Cowan & Harney as a sumo tag team against the cast of time bandits. €5 euro extra on the admission fee for a dig at Bertie on the way in.
Oh & by the way fuck all this culchie vs Dub crap, it’s called divide & conquer & is only encouraging gobshites like gluey.
PS Of late I’ve been pondering on a suitable punishment for Bertie & I finally came across an idea in a bad novel. Put him in a decompression chamber & play with the valves, increasing & decreasing the pressure depending on the volume you want him to scream at. Apparantly you can keep someone in the most extreme agony for days before making them go pop…. just a thought.
GOD YOU ARE SO CLEVER, KILLEMALL! I BET YOU ARE A HIGH EARNING ANALYST IN SOME HIGH-TECH THINK-TANK. YOUR SUMMATION OF THE ISSUES BROUGHT UP IN THIS FORUM IS MASTERFUL. GOOD JOB YOU ARE NOT LIKE ALL THE GOBSHITES AND WHINERS YOU SO UNCANNILY IDENTIFY. I BET ELIZABETH IS ONLY COMING TO IRELAND TO MEET YOU.
liking the Bertie Ahern idea. He’s like Nigerian and Italian ploiticians; he still hasn’t got his tax clearence certificate?
jeus fucking christ. on the day a new government is put together all that Fianna Fail can find to put on The Week in Politics is an unelcted cunt, Darragh “I ate all the pies” O’Brien
His tax certificate? I want to see his actual birth certificate.
I noticed some freshly painted graffiti on a couple of walls near St. James’ Hospital yesterday as I passed by on the Luas;
‘BRITS OUT CIRA’ and ‘NO BRITS QUEEN OUT’
Not entirely sure about the wording of the second one, but it’s close. You get the gist.
It’s not exactly the reaction they were hoping for, is it?
“why all of a sudden is the queen and the pope and obama winging their way to ireland?”
I reckon we must owe them all money OTD.
Two out of the three of them are German after all.
I just finished reading the promises that our new government have made and honestly if ten percent of them are honoured we are well on the way out of this mess but I have my doubts.
I was a bit shocked meself when Gerry topped the polls. I’m from Louth and he certainly doesn’t represent me. His canvassers were a bit scary too. Hard looking Nordies who complained that the election was a farce because 6 of the counties of Ireland weren’t entitled to vote in it. Throughout his campaign when the ‘Disappeared’ shit was flying the Sinn Fein camp were insisting that we should forget the past and try to move on with the future.
So it’s ‘Do as I say not as I do’ as far as those cunts are concerned!
i distinctly remember gerry adams, about 10 years ago, uttering the words “i would have no problem with mrs windsor visiting my country”, word for word.
Did he finish the sentence with ” … so my friends, who aren’t my friends and I have nothing do with, can explode her” ?
“Betty Windsor”
That’s Betty Saxe-Coburg unt Gotha to you, killemail.
A bit of respect, please.
She’s not the Queen of me.
I thing she would look lovely taking the evening air on Lower Gardiner Boulevard.
Queen V Pope? Celebrity Deathmatch?
Hmm. Can’t be a worse idea than it already is…
Just a shame for your headline there that Mr Adams surname is not Mr Rogers. Would have had better comedic potential. Still, you can’t have it all eh? Shame tho.
“I thing she would look lovely taking the evening air on Lower Gardiner Boulevard.”
Maybe she should be introduced to some of the local customs, like inhaling heroin off a sheet of heated tinfoil.
Quite, she has opened herself up recently. Not as stuffy as she used to be. What could be better than to have a conversation with one of those delightful young racals of an evening.. Then to pop over to Railway Street for a quiet cup of tea. Heaven!
I find the idea of royalty offensive. Royalty can only exist at the expense of others. They made their fortunes my stealing land and renting back to those it was stolen from. They did in England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, France, Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Norway……
Nothing but thieves. It’s just like a big time smuggler or drug dealer buying a house in a nice area and sending his kids to a private school. One or two generations later, they’re considered respectable, regardless of their ill-gotten gains.
I cannot see on what grounds the king of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he.
Thomas Paine is a quotemachine
The head of state of a country currently occupying part of our country being invited here? Give me a fucking break. Daft bastards the lot of yis who (a) would welcome her or (b) don’t give a shite. And Mary McAleese, whose own family was run out of Belfast in the loyalist programs, should be ashamed of herself. Enough is enough.
