Great novelist, that fella.

Been there alright. I'd give you a hug only I'm too manly for that, y'kno.

Looked at the avatar and thought that was MagicMe posting. Very, very unwelcome image!

Sunday Indo at their very best this weekend:

I'm not being reactionary and I'm all for gay rights and an end to prejudice and discrimination, and always have, but at this stage it seems as if the tables have turned and a minority community -- the gays -- want to increasingly change mainstream culture to suit them.

For example, why is civil partnership not enough, and why do gays also want marriage, a surely traditional heterosexual facility, which gays used to see as patriarchal, and 'straight'?

I'd say the journo's wiki has been recently edited too:

Eamon Delaney (born 14 July 1962) is an Irish author, journalist and homophobe.

I hate those people that sit in their house at Halloween and dont even bother their arse to go out to kids knockin on the door. Buy a few sweets you cheap lazy B or go to the cinema or out for a few pints. But sittin in the house while kids are knocking on the door is sad.

i stocked up on carrots and celery sticks for the lucky trick`r`treaters tonight. That`ll learn em.

Can't stand the daft ***** who, after the professor finished his lecture and says "so, anymore questions?" decide to ask questions. Its not so bad if its, "so its due on Monday, right?" but when its a question that either pertains only to you, is common sense, or could easily be found and we have a long-winded teacher just keep your mouth shut and either email him or just go up after he dismisses the rest of us. He was going to let us go 15 minutes early and two daft questions later somehow 15 minutes had passed.

Would you be saying the same thing if it was a paedophile's house? Personally I hate answering the door every couple of minutes so sometimes just to mess with them I go to the door and when I open it just sort of act like I don't know its Halloween and can't figure out why they're on my doorstep.

Rotten eggs are best, more aerodynamic and thus better for pelting the little ****s with. No brusing and it will make them smell. Giving out bad stuff will likely just end up with yourself getting egged or TPed but if you throw the eggs they'll be frightened.

Had the misfortune to see the Hustle last night on bbc 4. My god what a rubbish show, so obvious its all staged. **** Colin Murray on it last night in a silly poker game, guy with 4 aces that went all in when he had no hearts considering there were four hearts on the table with one card left and one man betting against him. Doh, maybe he has a heart!! And they were all surprised about this!!! FFs

Why can I get a $505 round trip from O'Hare to Istanbul but haven't been able find any fares under $1,000 to Dublin for the 2nd Leg? Thats how much a one-way ticket costs in most cases.

I really cant believe how incompetent Social Welfare are. No matter people scam them. Wish I could curse on here coz I have a special list of expletives just for them.

I hate movies where what's supposed to be security camera footage starts panning after and zooming in on actors.

I got a six pack of Duff beer for my birthday this week, was looking forward to it all day thinking I had a new novelty beer in the fridge. I nearly cried when I found out it's just bleedin' ol' budweiser in an expensive bottle.
