Assault and Vinegar Hill, 1798 |
Lowbrow vs Lowbrow. Ireland's got talented radio presenters. Yah?
TURBOFACE: Ovine, yeah, they're all ovine.
VOICES: Ovine, ovine, ovine.
TURBOFACE: That's ovine!
VOICES: Ovine, ovine, ovine.

Sat here for a full fifteen minutes trying to listen to Dryan' Turgid but his inanities built up over time until I finally succumbed, siezed a rod of spaghetti from the kitchen and punctured my ear drums rather than listen to the constant yaps. Yap, yap, yap! I am sick and fucking tired of hearing listener's text messages being read out. The producers meet with five minutes to air, say, "We start the show with the story about ... the cost of handbags! And two minutes later the morons' texts will roll in so we won't have to write or research anything ever again."
It's a brilliant plan, and it's working.

All the bin men and sweepers show up for 15 minutes today it’s Tuesday. Meanwhile the rest of the week the place is in a state morning to night.
14:04
Ireland one of the worst countries in Europe in reducing road (death) tolls.
14:44
Joycean: We are in a period where no changes are supposed to happen but we are looking to get these made anyway. The issue has been escalated and I would expect some kind of movement this morning.
15:03
Some guy from the Road Unsafety Authority has thrown up a whole other set of statistics he's got that casually ignore the real ones from Europe.
16:22
An alcoholic bullchick on the radio laughing out too loud with her hoarse voice to be sincere. Must have been quaffing to beat the band again last night. I don't know if she's an alco. She has the garrulous voice of a young woman in her twenties and a culchie accent, so I'm assuming she is.
16:38
Woman caller on moaning because she can't get any funding to build wheelchair access facilities at home for her child, and, inter alia, he suffering from leukemia. Presently, at age fifteen, he's living in the coal shed out the back. She says she's running into a brick wall. Eh, what's she complaining about so?
18:16
Feeding direct from the deep underground bunker in Jerusalem as the Flatcap News service ply us with the Yarmulke line on the barrage of poor Lebanon. Instead of investigating what the hell is going on in the Middle East anyway. The Flatties too sensitive to slag off the Jews of a sadistic bent because things are still a bit - raw - following the potato-famine in Auschwitz during the Fifties.
18:20
The head of the bank got four million in pay last year and they are using that to prove that the prime minister and his minions are not paid enough. But, they get free dinners!
18:51
The rain heaves murders on our heads. Heroin addicts squash the life of old men.
18:54
The newsreader signs off like she’s blowing on my dick, whispering “Good night, take care.” So that’s alright then! Yeah, we’re hooked.
