Dolores O'Riordan, Nembo getting increasingly demented, fascinating to watch

And no Gerry Hannan in there? :astonished:

'From just reading over this thread, you originally came in with a play on one of her songs. You kept going. You got some mild pushback which clearly wasn’t enough for you and you decided to don your wannabe Tin Tin O’Toole commentators hat and launch an attack on everyone.

Most people here were posting simple RIPs or a little nostalgia from their childhood. But you decided to be the arbiter of all and start critiquing people for pointing out the hard life she had from reading an obituary, thinking you’re some thought leader. That’s why pointing out your RIPs from you there is important, as it shows the hypocrite you are.

You were obviously desperate for a bit of attention here. All because you can’t get the audience you crave most of all, I would guess. To be a commentator on anything you have to have some grounding or respect from somewhere. Whether that is a background in business, politics, being an athlete or simply being a journalist for many years standing who has done work on unearthing stories. You’ve done absolutely nothing in your life other than be a veracious consumer of media.’

How were the Cranberries thought of in Moyross? It wouldn’t be the type of music you’d usually associate with disadvantaged areas but at the same time everybody supports their own, you’d think a few local lads playing on MTV and headlining large arenas would have been big news.

I was living in Corbally when they broke … Sure Hogan was the bard of Thomondgate so they were loved on the Northside.

Can’t remember direct connection but think it was a great grand uncle he was of Noel and Mike. Noel is a hell of a sound fella. I don’t know the other lads at all

Oh, I got pushback, alright. Well done, @Tim_Riggins and others. Amazing what reaction a little reality gets.

Sadly, as usual, Tim resorted to making things up.

Thought leader, not. Tim has never had an original thought in his life. He should have gone to the debating society, it might have given him a better chance.

The forum was quite intent on taking offence at some common sense. Still waiting for what it is you or anybody else was actually offended at.

The only grounding @Tim_Riggins has ever had is when Pater wouldn’t let him out to go to the Wesley disco for not doing his homework.

A failed law student with view on politics and on life which are about as coherent as a serial killing vegan and have more holes in them than a colander.

As well as that, he’s clearly about as familiar with work as Kev is with paying tax, given the amount of time he spends on here.

At least we know now that Tim clearly doesn’t consider full-time care for an invalid as work, well we knew that already. That kind of thing would be a bit “beneath” him. “Sponging”, I presume he’d call it. This from a poster with a track record of blind, uncritical support for the biggest spongers around not just in Ireland but elsewhere.

He should try it sometime. I highly doubt he’d be able for it though.

How many hours to come up with that? Crikey, up early and spamming the forum already, this is very strange.

As for “sponging”, I did plenty of that pal in my forecourt assistant career. I’ve no problem with what you do for a living, it’s great you have something to do. People thinking you were unemployed says a lot about you though. The fact that you show such latent unhappiness in your posts is the real problem here.

Pity you’re still actually doing it.

Point out where you object to what I wrote, with quotes please.

Put up or shut up.

In terms of unhappiness, I’d venture that somebody like yourself who has a proven track record of picking on the weakest in society suffers from far more than latent unhappiness. Despite quite clearly being one of the biggest actual spongers of all.

oooft,

Having a different political POV to someone doesn’t mean you don’t have empathy for others.

I made an observation fella, I hope the likes for the usual suspects will let you slee tonight.

When is the funeral on?

It’s quite moving that a lot of people are listening to The Cranberries on their commute to work the past few days.

Their wild slow to bury someone in the UK when you die of natural cause never mind being a rock star found dead in your hotel room.Be another week anyway.
