@gordonhill54 You could start by getting his name right.

I have just watched the Kenny Sampson Documentary and all I can say is lets helps Kenny, I know a lot of people have been great but we can not leave him on his own.

@saras76 She didn't need to turn around. I already knew.

@irishexaminer It's liberating to be free from a 500k salary said no one ever.

@elisaodonovan A big part of Sunday mornings-throwing tantrums because people were praying together.

As many of you know, I grew up in London in the 80s and 90s, and Wac-A-Day and Mallet’s Mallet were such a big part of my Saturday mornings. Those shows were pure joy back then, and they’ve always stayed with me. I’ve been following Timmy Mallett’s journey along the River Shannon over the past while, so I was already feeling a bit nostalgic. But today, something really special happened. I was passing the bike shop on O’Connell Ave (as I do ten times a day!) and happened to glance in—and there he was, Timmy Mallett himself. I genuinely couldn’t believe it. It caught me completely off guard and I got quite emotional in the moment. It just brought me right back to being a kid again. What made it even nicer was seeing how much he appreciates Limerick and its people. It was such a simple, unexpected moment, but one I’ll genuinely cherish for a long time 💛💛

@john_mcguirk Quite the lineup.

Looking forward to speaking at this event in Charleville on Saturday evening. If you're there, say hello!

@MikeBeauvais The eyes are a window to the soul.

When Phil Mickelson rolled up to the first ever LIV Golf event looking like he was just dredged out of a river, you knew this shit wasn't gonna work out.

@KateGleeson1 Good old capitalism.

This beaut arrived this morning. #FreePalestine

@Thebrinksman Sands was nothing more than a useful idiot to the Cowards & Women Party. Did you not know that???

@Independent_ie And she's off and running.

@ArturNadol7566 @SamiraAhmedUK @BBC @theJeremyVine Woman reads and agrees to terms of contract. Woman signs contract. Woman whinges about contract she signed. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

BBC PAID HIM 6X MORE. THE TRIBUNAL SAID THAT WAS ILLEGAL. THE BBC SAID IT WAS COMPLICATED. Samira Ahmed @SamiraAhmedUK presented Newswatch on @BBC for years. Same format. Same length. Same job. Read viewer feedback on camera, wrap it up, go home. Jeremy Vine @theJeremyVine did exactly the same thing on Points of View. She got £440 per episode. He got £3,000. Ahmed spent years trying to fix it quietly through internal BBC processes. The BBC said there was no problem. She filed for tribunal. In January 2020, the tribunal ruled unanimously in her favour. The BBC could not explain the difference. They tried. They argued Vine needed "a glint in the eye" and to be "cheeky." The tribunal said that was not a skill. It was a story the BBC told itself. The total underpayment was close to £700,000. Sarah Montague, another BBC woman, settled separately for around £400,000. The National Union of Journalists flagged around 70 more cases waiting resolution internally. After Ahmed won, 700 BBC women received pay rises. The BBC's statement after losing? They regretted it had gone to tribunal. Not that they paid a woman six times less than a man for the same work for years. Just that it became public. Sources: @guardian, @BBC, @IFJGlobal, Others

@SensibleFascist They/them energy.

I can’t get over this video. A fat torta power walking up to the podium like she has something important to say… only to stand at the podium silently for a few seconds, catch her breath from the walk over there, then walk back out. A perfect representation of modern HR culture.

@taxidamien Doughnuts as we say in polite society.

Ever notice when political shysters are giving an interview there's always a couple of latchicos nodding away behind them 🙄

@charlie_lawson1 @TheSundayLife @TheSun Bryan would still act you under the table Jim.

Sad news about Bryan Murray, actor. We had some craic on”Bread”, back in the day. @TheSundayLife @TheSun

@ElmaRyder Andrea is great craic so she is. If you don't believe me, ask her.

The phenomenon of the grifter who eats takeaways as loudly as possible into their phone is a particularly irritating one. A really awful Irish example is someone called Andrea Woods, whose shtick is to feign extreme boggerness. "C'mon lads, look at me horsin' into me chips..."etc

@DaraghCassidy That's Sydney Parade for you.

20 mins of this almost non-stop on the Dart today, all because someone dared look at her “the wrong way” as she was roaring on the phone😂 Threatened to kill us all too of course🙄 You rarely see this type of behaviour in other cities. But it’s all too common in Dublin.

@Independent_ie No

Dear Vicki: Is it wrong for security and cleaning staff at a firm to call the boss by their first name? buff.ly/ysXGH7D

@The_Forty_Four There really should be only one tactic in women's football. Shoot on sight.

What the fuck is going on in the women’s UCL 😂😂😂

@DavidSneyd 41...real bang of junket off that.

Given it had an average or 78% of the country watching the game I’d say that’s a national broadcaster fulfilling its duties?

@gregallenRTE Heeluva a swing and a bit of a prick as well.

7 yrs after turning pro as a 12 h’cap Eamonn Darcy was runner-up to Arnold Palmer in the 1975 PGA C’Ship at Royal St Georges. Won 1990 Dubai Desert Classic & was a Ryder Cup hero in ‘87 & when he retired at 66, his final career round on the Seniors Tour was a 67. Helluva a player

@MattZeitlin GOAT

old people: what was michael jackson's public image in the 90s before the child abuse allegations. was he considered werid but in a kind of harmless eccentric way?
