Some Things What I Have Learnt
After my failed attempt to win two awards the other night in what was obviously a huge fix, I came to notice a few things.
-
Grandad’s beard is epic.
-
Twenty’s ‘beard’ is not.
-
Sinead Gleeson has a really lovely voice.
-
The Beaut.ie girls are all rides.
-
The Barmen in the Alexander hotel move slower than a sloth crawling through custard.
-
Rua is a massive hairbag and when he starts drinking again the world will be in danger.
-
Rosie makes fantastic cocktails that taste like Haribo cola bottles and get you extremely drunk and make you argue that Rollerskate Skinny are better than that electro shite she listens to.
-
If you turn up late to stuff like this you don’t have to pay.
-
If you also leave early you don’t have to listen to mouthy yanks who say stuff like “Do you blog?” as a greeting.
-
Or talk to people who use ‘air comments’ when they talk about ‘real life’.
-
Manuel should have been nominated for a craft award for those little badges.
-
Taking the piss out of George Bush is still funny after all these years.
-
Photoblogs are just really Flickr accounts, and are therefore shit.
So there. Tough shit to everyone who, like me, turned up and won nothing, despite being better at this lark than the bunch who actually won. Well done to all those who won.
You are all massive, massive nerds.

Sorry I didn’t get to say hello.
Grandad’s beard is epic.
Twenty’s ‘beard’ is not.
Hah!!!
There’e always next year. Keep up the work.
I see we had some kind of psychic blog writing connection today… Anywho, expect to hear from my solicitor
Yeah well those of you nominated are even bigger nerds than those of us who have a cult underground following. And I made sure she got a big bunch of flowers yesterday too, for the day that’s in it.
So there.
me too.
although myself and disgrace cheered for you, we left as soon as we could, as
a) the missus found the whole event more boring than mass in Latin
b) the bar staff and the ‘blog-luminati’ (e.g. those who’ve blog since the 1980’s and did not stop going on about how this years awards were less fun and intimate than previous years) were getting on my tits
c) the heat of room was like sitting bear checked on the sun
d) the fact that I didn’t win and no-one really cheered for me when my blog was called out by Rick ‘Unfunny’ O’Shea and my ego was seriously crushed.
next year, I suppose.
you owe me a lamp.
Hey man - I started reading your site last week as a result of you replying to me about my proposal that scum should be sterilised over on Twenty’s site. If nothing else, you gained a new reader. Scant consolation I’m sure, but fuck you and your complaining.
Also, your RATM post made me realise how much I hate nu-metal, even if it was technically invented by Aerosmith and Run DMC, but it was supremely entertaining.
Better luck next year OFTR. I think you’re a winner!
Jesus I forgot I broke Rosie’s lamp. Sorry Rosie.
The rest of you are all dead sound.
spill with the lamp story……
she was annoying me so I smashed it over her head

it’s true. and then he tried to convince me that it was me who had smashed it, not him.

You owe me money and I know what you look like. Hidden camera for all those that were late. Ebeneezers. Es are good.
