Dermot has me driven fuckin mad. One small dog is filling up the house with shit and I’m going crazy. I’m developing cynophagophobia, or as we used to say in Irish fruallachain: the morbid fear that a small dog has shit somewhere in the house.
For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been conducting a little social experiment.
The first thing I said to every new person I met was Fuck off, you thick Offaly fucker!!
What do you think everyone said back to me?
Was it, How dare you tell me to fuck off ?
No. They all said, I’m not [...]
I see the Caseys held a protest outside City Hall because the Corpo wants to move them to allow construction of a 13-foot-high security wall separating them from the Galvone industrial estate. Now why on earth would a wall like that be necessary? I can’t imagine.
Some uncharitable people in Limerick are suggesting that [...]
With all the euphoria about the Leicester match, I forgot to bring you up to date on Scunthorpe United. The Scunts defeated Bradford 1-0 with a 79th-minute goal from the great Billy Sharp. The Scunts now lie in fourth position, but with a deeply-impressive 10-goal difference.
Wrinkly Joe is organising a trip to Scunthorpe for [...]
I thought we fought for years to get rid of religious maniacs in Ireland, but it looks like I was wrong. After struggling against SPUC and SPIC and SPOCK and all the rest of the Catholic religious right, I failed to notice a whole new crowd of lunatics trying to re-write our laws.

Just like me, you probably went apeshit watching Munster beating Leicester by two points following a simply wonderful 50-metre penalty from Ronan O’Gara. As you know, Bock has soldiered in this campaign, and was at the Millennium Stadium along with his son, the Bullet, on that unforgettable day back in May.
So what’s all this [...]
A truly stupid name. It isn’t an opera centre – it’s a shopping centre.
What a crowd of gobshites!
This is what a Garda shouted at a young child in a car as about ten of his colleagues dragged the child’s father away on a false murder charge. These were the same guards who were variously involved in perjury, intimidation, planting weapons, planting explosives, assaulting witnesses and false imprisonment. The same guards [...]
Did you know that the late Kim Il Sung is still President of North Korea? Isn’t that great?
I told Gonad the Ballbearian about this last week, and he jumped up like he’d been farted at by a Donegal detective. I’ll be back to you he said, and he was as good as his [...]
Free legal aid guarantees our freedoms in a democracy. It means that a poor person can’t be oppressed by a corrupt police force. It gives a voice to the weak and defenceless. It’s an admirable concept in a society of equals, such as they have in Scandinavia.
It was never meant for skobes.
