The All Ireland Hurling Championship

NB not the game of hurling (one of the best in the world) but the championship - a moral bankruptcy of ineptitude

kind of agree, but more to do with Kilkenny's dominance over the last decade that has turned the game into a procession than anything else

The Galway United squad.

Flashmobs. They were genuinely funny at one point but now everyone seems to be doing them in London, and they really feck up your commute. Bunch of attention seekers.

It seems to have become the "done thing" alright. I think that for many it must be the number one way of expressing their individuality and originality and to live "in the minute" is to hear about something happening off the internet a couple of days in advance, get together as a big anonymous group - to avoid possibly prosecution - and to do that thing that they heard their friend was at once, and that they saw in some advert, so that for years to come they can tell people that they were in one once, to outdo their friend, simultaneously while failing to realise that the look on their adherents face means that the listener has considered anyone involved in them after the second one they saw to be a pillock of the first water and are currently making plans to uninvite them to dinner, leaving these types with a shrinking social pool, and redirecting them to more emo/art school/generic tosser types. Social darwinism at its best.

On a side note, you know that have become thoroughly Londonised, when you find that you consider something that interferes with your commute more than once a public menace that someone should do something about, regardless of how much you may have enjoyed it first time out.

Companies like T-Mobile and Cadbury's have used 'flash mobs' for their adverts. When the corporates jump on the bandwagon, it's not fun anymore just cynical.

That **** Fergal Darcy really grinds my gears

He thinks they're so "random" and "a bit mad" and don't get me started on that stupid rural accents he puts on

**longfordjames** · 18/08/2009, 10:32 PM

Agreed.

But Mary McGill acts like a child.

**Magicme** · 19/08/2009, 11:35 AM

i105-107 is great. Bernard and Keith are a laugh. Mazz bazz.

**longfordjames** · 19/08/2009, 11:45 AM

There fine as is Chris Greene and Ar Eileamh otherwise i dont rate either.

**Magicme** · 19/08/2009, 12:07 PM

They have been great to us over the past few weeks. Gave our game against Pats loads of coverage and sent the iteam down to our game to give out stuff before the match. I really enjoy most of their shows. And Fran Kennedy sounds like he is a hottie. Pity cant find a pic of him but sure if he is a male version of Lucy he's got to be cute!

**brendy_�ire** · 19/08/2009, 1:02 PM

This country's obcession with sweet chilli sauce. If you can't handle the spiciness of chilli, you aren't allowed to water it down with sugar. Just don't eat it.

**Blue Man** · 19/08/2009, 2:59 PM

Girlfriends. Just absolute hassle. And then when you finish with them, they do stuff to annoy you?? Nonsense.

The Guinness ad. The 'To Martha' one? Absolute crap and the most overplayed ad in history. Actually seeing as Im watching telly now, Harvey Norman ads in general. Stupid.

Sorry in a bad mood today

Ah, no - this is a list of stuff that you are supposed to live but it rubbish - not quite the same as "stuff I hate". Happy to do that thread but don't want to depress anybody.

The key part of this thread title, is "stuff you are supposed to like...."
