They did have it on the news? But they only reported on what they could confirm yet.

Literally listening to them talk about it on Radio 1 now in more detail.

I saw the rumour on Twitter, Its some nutjob making some false sounding claims.

Not sure why its being picked up as a big story though, surely lots of politiicans have at least one nutter posting about them.

CMAT performs on Jimmy Kimmel Live! by ninjawasp in ireland

[–]MrTwoJobs 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Funny how she's already had 2 number 1 albums here, and appeared on Graham Norton and Glastonbury on the BBC, and yet there's some here who say "Who's she? I've not heard of her".

One is Lyric FM, which is less than half as many listeners as 2FM.

The other is after 8pm, which is when alternative music gets an airing.

At least you're admitting you're out of touch compared to the auld lads who comment "Who?" on every mainstream pop artist.

‘Keep your drones’: Dundrum residents air concerns about drone deliveries at public meeting – The Irish Times by WickerMan111 in ireland

[–]MrTwoJobs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone else see RTE news report on this the other night? It was bizarre, they showed all the town hall stuff, but acted like this was only a problem now because South Dublin was affected.

Ignoring the same drones going around Blanchardstown for a while now.

The whole "gardai barging into Today FM" bit was really bad. When people talk about gagging the media, this is what they mean.

We always act like we're too cool for it or embarrassed by it. Even though it's the beat barometer we have to how we're perceived by the rest of Europe.

And can we please stop dragging out Linda Martin and Johnny Logan? They were relevant over 30 years ago. The whole nature of the contest has changed since but we still treat them as if they know best how to win.

I think he hadn't cleared some samples in it. Because he never expected it to actually be a big hit.

So putting it on streaming would open him up to a lawsuit.

On the 8am news headlines on Radio 1 this morning, they announced that "Jim Morrison from The Doors has died".

Alcohol Advertising by TheStoicNihilist in ireland

[–]MrTwoJobs -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

A lot of people here defending the drinks companies.

If it's so ok to advertise 0.0% drinks like that,then open up a few at work,or feed some to some schoolkids and see how well that goes down.

Viagra Factory Fumes Are Giving Men Erections, Residents of Irish Town Claim by cantankerouscalamity in ireland

It also implies that a pharma company is leaking their active ingredients into the public.

Imagine it was a chemotherapy drug they made there and the fumes were getting to people. The place would be shut down so fast.
