I've only watched one full episode, the one where he pretends he's in a wheelchair. Was that the theatre one?

[Silver-Tiger]

Can anyone help me, I'm looking for series to watch. It should be 30 mins long (roughly) probably, but not necessarily, comedy. I love The Thick of It, entourage etc etc.

Every episode of drop the dead donkey imo(if you haven't seen it already of course) Sheer Genius

Yup..I'd have thought the fact that most of the episode takes place in one might have been a giveaway!


So here it is folks, the bottom of the barrel in terms of news:

Inch of snow fallen in last hour. Fck. Thought all that snow malarkey was in the past by now. Presume its on its way to Dublin too, given that i'm quite close to there.

Tell me about it - I jsut went out of the office a few mins ago and the place is covered in snow.
Sure, it looks nice etc, but it makes getting around so damn impractical!

[RasTa]

I'm hearing The Larry Sanders show is awesome, anyone confirm?

Mr Show is probably one of the most original sketch comedy shows I've seen since Python.

Gloucester Cheese Rolling

In response to PhantomLords post about Gloucester Cheese rolling
This is a good song from The maccabees with an really great accompanying vid from the cheese rolling event.

LOL yeah i know, just didn't know if there was 2 and i actually though that was the cinema! but i sae it about 2 years ago!

[RoadSweeper]

i thought the first season of it crowd was great, second season not so much. the epsiode in the theatre (i think?) was just fantastic.

Yes, this my exact opinion of it. It just got worse as it went on imo.

[Iago]

Before football became purely about money he would have been transfer listed for this (why do you think local hero would suddenly move to local rivals in the 70's 80's etc, ridin)

add the 90's there as well, and thank god for that. united may never have won the premier league otherwise

Are you kiddin? They took an absolute classic and butchered it beyond recognition!

[ghostface]

Some old school Paramount shows if you like them.
Two and Half Men (I like for relaxing)
Frasier (Good)
Becker (I love it)
King of Queens (meh)
South Park (Season 7 onwards imo)

Also, I.T Crowd and Inbetweeners are okay but kind of piss me off.

Only fools and horses is obviously epic and I recommend it.

Reeling in the years (IDK if its 1hr or 30mins) is good for non comedy

Frasier is my personal favourite sit com of all time

[Guest]

it's funny how many episodes revolve solely around the lack of mobile phones!

Thats nuts. I watched pretty much my first ep of Seinfeld last weekend and whatever predicament they were in, the mobile phone thing was my exact thought!

Its like being stuck in some kind of parrallel weird fkd up universe, where these two useless fkers are the two biggest stars in the world. All man kind have turned retarded, jedward are now running for world leaders no.1 and 2. And your thinking you must be insane for thinking otherwise. For the love of god somebody please think of the children.

Remind me of that comedy movie, that the human race gets dumber as the years go on.

[LuckyLloyd]

I'm looking for something between 4k and 7k i think. I found anice audi a4, 2003 for 8k but might be a tad pricey for me.

Any suggestions very much welcome.

Also, if anyone wants a 2000 ford focus let me know!

Nooooooooooooo

You can't sell the focus!!!

[72over]

Fullflush is great. Just watching the PKR HU grand Slam on SS2

"I should be beating all of them easily so, it won't be that big an achievment"

I remember seeing him on some other televised show and he got it AI with AK v TT or something and got up giving out to himself saying "I'm too good to be flipping" lol.

How do i stop the tournie announcements on stars ? only the last few days they have started to show in the chat window, very annoying !!

I would also like to know this? Cant seem to find...oh wait...
Options>Tournament Announcements>Block Pop-Up and Chat Announcements

too lazy to put through a converter???,why are u too lazy to read the hand.
i could say more but i wont.

Raw hand histories make baby Jezus cry...fact

[LuckyLloyd]

I've got no interest in local politics

And my agenda is pretty radical as regards national politics (radical situations demand radical solutions after all); I don't think you'll find any mainstream political party advocating that all Irish banks be allowed to fail, for example.

Olly would be a good campaign manager though; he's amoral enough to do anything to win!

I can be your speech writer.

In the morning light, this is a total overreaction.

Not worthy of a trip report, Cliff Notes

- Went to a quiet pub in town
- Going ok, 2 drinks in and a homeless guy walks in, tosses his rucksack into the corner and shoves me across and sits next to us.
- Starts talking me up to her.
- He goes off to get a drink, and we leg it out of sight around the corner.
- Few more drinks, chatting about family and stuff like that.
- Whilst kissing, she whispers my mum's name in my ear
- I tell her to stop, its not cool.
- She puts her hand under the table, checks "me" out, and says the name again
- and again
- and again





- I leave very quickly.

Jaysus, wtf? You just passed on some seriously good sex though.

so bizzare.

I have read a lot of his stuff over the years. I think he's probably educated to a very poor standard, and I believe that percentage of the population is probably more susceptible to the idea that the world is mega rigged.

Our first real top Irish newcomer into the music buisness and you wont get behind them? ridiculous

The song is amazingly catchy. I love it!

[Sledgejammer]

Frasier is my personal favourite sit com of all time

Yeah, Cheers runs it pretty close too. nearly 30 years of the same character and it was brilliant from start to finish

[Guest]

I'm hearing The Larry Sanders show is awesome, anyone confirm?

Its one of the best shows ever made(imo),
first few series are brilliant, may have got a bit tired near the end but
defo worth digging out
Rip Torn is class it it!

From memory the Gary Shandling show was good too, how it has dated is the question?
//
Proper comedy stuff
Hancocks half hour
Goon show (some have dated badly, some are still the nuts)
Count Arthur Strong Radio show

AND OTHER RADIO SHOWS
available in Ireland on BBC Iplayer, different one every week

Original Lucille Ball show on various sattelite channels

Phil Silvers Show is class and very important as everyone you like in comedy probably watched that as a kid

i doubt there'd be any room for pinkos on that team! i've watched the west wing though, i think that makes me qualified to help run a national campaign!

Jaysus, wtf? You just passed on some seriously good sex though.

yeah, crazy women can't be beat.

Paolo Nutini music is perfect for the pokerz, two of my favs.

[Strewelpeter]

Mr Show is probably one of the most original sketch comedy shows I've seen since Python.

+ a lot for Larry
Sinefeld, Curb, Conchords and arrested development would all fit the bill

Tell me about it - I jsut went out of the office a few mins ago and the place is covered in snow.
Sure, it looks nice etc, but it makes getting around so damn impractical!

Snow LOL, I can't sleep for the noise of the aircon keeping me cool.

Looks Like I'll have to head to Mozambique for next week so now have to choose whether to spent my weekend in Kenya or there. Decisions decisions

Dylan may be the deciding factor

Yule is now solskar on here and on holidays for a few days. BCB is around and looking to catch a break*.

[Angry-Ball]

Are you talking about the ESRI report which essentially called him an idiot? Brave move on his part to challenge the integrity of ESRI, given the crowd of idiots he used to back his idiotic stance.

Greens opposing incineration should be shot (and their bodies turned into fertilizer obv).

Remember hearing that most wind farms around the country are objected to by the Green Party. Just shows the level of their intelligence really.

thats it exactly
they really are a shower of plonkers they object to everything and have to have an opinion on everything aswell.
they really should be on the opposition benches with the amt of complaining they do

For the last 4 hours:

Read total of 120,000 words - awarded grades and typed average 200 words for each of 40 assignments corrected - receive average pay of £200 per hour when i ship them off tomorrow to my other job! Badly need new braincells though. Still the speed is highly impressive imo!

So thats what I gotta aspire to - forget marking my own exams, the money is elsewhere.

Then again, was it worth it - 120k words, 40 assignments, shudder.......

Why is Yuletired/BCB not posting here?

Who?!

Check out the "who are you" thread - might explain why they "are not" here.....
(Solskjaer/ danutpeddler are the new aliases i think)

[ComradeCollie]

Pretty sure BCB hasn't posted here yet. He's opposed to change in general(unlike his hair follicles)

[NewApproach]

Haven't time for a full post on the last few days, so I'll be brief.

Few friends and I from college in Galway wen't to Dublin to watch old school play rugby match.

Went out in Dublin last night.

Got very drunk, then hungry so got a kebab.

Woke up this morning, and got sick. Then got sick again. And again.

Went to some pharmacy, got sick on the way. Again when I got home.

Drove back to Galway, got sick on the way.

Went home, got sick on that journey too.

Now in bed at home, and I'm going to get sick again in the next few minutes I reckon.

Feels like theres something living inside me, FML. Let my aces get busted anyday

[Angry-Ball]

holy cowdung sargentman that coolebeg incinarator is planning on taking all our rubbish
