Surely one of the 10 Burke siblings has 'gone rogue' (normal) by now?

My key findings about babies having lived with one for the past 14 months are that they are brave as fuck and love to dance

Estonia's new tourism promotion is très chic indeed! Sound on is a must.

On the Hugging Discourse, I a) think it's OK for grandparents to hug children, but b) think it's OK to open a discussion about consent around this, and most importantly c) think it's absolutely not OK for Jim O'Callaghan to swoop in and get the DRCC to take down a video. Also d) my brain hurts.

OK, I realise on reflection that there might be reasonable accusations of inconsistency in my Time Line, but hear me out..

I wish my friends and family would stop dying for a while

I'm pretty sure this was the title of the video my friend's brother-in-law shared into the stag party WhatsApp group before the best man deleted the group

"A wet pier dries slower under the bandstand shadow" would be an excellent sleeper agent trigger phrase.

Is it not "three for a wedding"?

5 hours as a rickshaw puller in Dublin city when I was 19. Needed more graft and grift than I could muster and I couldn't handle the abusive British stag party crowd. Didn't even make enough to cover the rickshaw rental.

It has been 20 years since this epic piece of Internet History was published. Again I crumble to dust .. youtu.be/3HjIljJd-o0?...

Huge development in Kermit Cromwell news

My favourite is saying that swan is the traditional Easter dish in Ireland. Very easy to segue into after someone mentions that supposed fact that it's illegal to eat swan in England because the queen owns them all, so it's a thumb in the eye to the crown to commemorate the Easter rising

I jumped

The headline makes it sound like Leinster were beaten by actual sharks. Literal sharks.

Seems unnecessary at this point

Tayto have brought out limited edition crisp packets with the 12 most popular surnames in Ireland. However, they have dropped 'Smith' and replaced it with 'McCarthy'. Free Stayto creating a cold house for citizens of planter stock. www.retailnews.ie/news-and-vie...

youtu.be/sJZe-9pASTA?... For the day that's in it, please enjoy. This intro still gives me the shivers.

That was a long day. Time to see what's going on in the world. *opens irish times dot com reads top four headlines* Never mind.

One possible charitable explanation for the terrible round tables is that some people (Ian, Pete, Anna?) know fine well that Pauric and Carla are the traitors, but want to keep them where they can see them. Keep voting out faithful and then bang bang at the end and split the pot. #TraitorsIRL

These people are thick as pigshit. STOP LISTENING TO PETE! #TraitorsIRL

Looks like the bauld Pozier has a long history of murder #TraitorsIRL youtu.be/MoDfPv94bIc?...

AI is a curse on humanity and will likely kill us all but on the plus side it's useful for answering the most inane questions that pop into your head such as when did Noah overtake Noel as a baby name in Ireland (some time between 1998 and 2004)

I passed actress Geraldine Plunkett. She seemed remarkably well preserved. Turns out she was only 11 years older than her daughter on Glenroe. This was dealt with in Ep1 by Dinny: "Are you coddin' me Mary, a little slip of a thing like yourself with a grown up daughter?" youtu.be/xnTl1_L2xKA?...

"I wasn't allowed to stay up and watch the EU treaty negotiations in 1991" "Maastricht?" "She was a bit"

Without saying your age, what is a favourite movie that came out when you were 20 years old?

Britain’s original plan for New Zealand had the islands split into three provinces, with nonsensical borders typical of any British colonial project. The provinces were named after Irish ones (the guy who came up with them was an Anglo-Irish colonial officer). These didn’t last for long.

So the shortlist was two women and a man and then Carla says "Oíche mhaith, mo cara" instead of "Oíche mhaith, mo chara". Am I remembering my Irish grammar correctly? Is Ian toast? #TraitorsIRL

Gonna try to watch #TraitorsIRL this evening. Never watched or before and have been on zero TV of late with a babby in the house. This better deliver.. #speirgorm

This map of Civil Parishes in Dublin from the early 20th century is wild. Rathmichael has a coastline, Killiney village isn't even in Killiney, and Monkstown includes modern day Blackrock, Dún Laoghaire, and a decent chunk of Dalkey.

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection
