Embarrassing Incident Involving Rocko Earlier

I was in town earlier and I gave Rocko a shout to meet him to give him my season card for Sunday’s derby so he could pass it onto one of the other lads.

Anyway, I was chatting to him and he mentioned that his mp3 player was broken and he needed to bolt up to Peat’s to get it fixed or replaced.

I asked him what the story was and he explained that the actual mp3 player seemed to be powering up fine and was in working order but he couldn’t hear any sound out of it.

So, I just looked at it and asked had he considered the possibility that the earphones were simply broken and not the mp3 player itself.

And the clown was standing there with a big, goofy head on him as I grabbed his mp3 player and popped in the earphones from my own one and sure enough it was working fine.

What an idiot. Apparently it’s been like that for months and he never even thought of trying different earphones in it.

Priceless !!

Is this the same person who’s on about developing a complex GAA Fantasy Team feature for this site?

yeah but everyone round here knows that bandage is the IT genius in these parts…rock just swoops in and takes the credit…

In the words of John Bruton:

I am shocked and apalled by this.

You fucker Bandage. And there I was pondering whether to tell the true story over on the IOTM thread and I opted out of it as I didn’t think it was fair on you!

You’re some tulip. Broken MP3 player on the way to Peats,
I said give me a look, Bandage hands it over, sure enough no sound from the earphones.

  • Did ya try other earphones I asked almost rhetorically.
    -No sure, I don’t have any other earphones that would fit into that hole.
    -That’s just a normal earphone socket Bandage.
  • Ah is it?
  • Sure is. I’ll get my earphones and check.
    (Rocko gets his earphones, presses play and we have sound)
  • Here ya stupid fuck it’s just broken earphones
  • Where can I get new earphones?
  • Anywhere. Dixons in Jervis if you’re going to the Celtic Store (previously discussed as Bandage wants his new hoops for Sunday)
  • And what do I ask for?
  • Just earphones. Try and get Sennheisers for about 20 quid.
  • And do I need to show them the mp3 player so they can work out what ones to get?
  • No ya fool. They’re all the same.

Moron.

:eek:

The deviousness of it all!

Bandage say it ain’t so…

Unbelievably shocking stuff being spouted by Rocko there. As an aside, my own mp3 player was broken for the last while but I have it back working again. It’s playing like a dream now.

If Bandage could lie about this who knows whatelse he could be lying about??

And to think I was supposed to be protecting him from the forum knowing his whereabouts on Sunday!!!

I’ll be taking a photo of the great man in Celtic Park. I can assure ye of that.

Rocko stoops to a new low by mentioning the Celtic Store and my new hoops as if to imply we really did have the conversation as he posted it. Cunning, devious too, but completely fabricated.

Why would you need new hoops for Sunday?
Surely your not going to Glasgow?

a late entry for IOTM. While this event had taken place off boards and wouldnt technically be allowed, the fact it has spilled over onto these pages and has gathered speed with either

a) Bandage was a complete idiot, and got on here first trying to pawn it off as Rockos fook up
or http://www.thefreekick.com/board/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif Rocko fooked up and is a complete idiot.

But the fact that there is a big twist, could mean that

a)Bandage is a complete and utter idiot for bringing it to attention and now looks even more foolish
or http://www.thefreekick.com/board/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif Rocko is denying it all and trying to say it never happened him and is trying to reverse it.

To be honest, you’d have to go with previous form and say Bandage, you are an idiot!

That was my point Runt - he tried to imply that I’m going to Glasgow and snubbing Wexford-Tyrone even though I’m heading to Croker. It shows he’s rattled but in fairness it was an impressively sly attempt to shift the topic away from his crass stupidity with the earphones.

This is gripping. The seemingly one unbreakable bond on TFK is shattered with deep deception on one side.

From my point of view I have heard Bandage going on about his broken MP3 player for months now. I never heard Rock say anything about his being broken. Not that that may mean anything…

multiple user perhaps?

or are they so stuck together they forget who’s who?

Yella Hoops! now thats for the things that are wrong thread.

I think Farmer has hammered a nail into bandage’s coffin with the reminder that bandage’s mp3 player is broken.

It’s even referenced as recently as the start of August:
http://www.thefreekick.com/vbforum/showpost.php?p=61347&postcount=2

I, on the other hand, have made numerous references to my mp4 player on here. I left the world of mp3s behind a long time ago. (brief reference here).

See ya in Glasgow tubby.

The classic switcheroo from Bandage

Surprisingly lacked any subtleness whatsoever though

Eh?

Anyway Bandage is off work this week so it would make sense that he would try and get all those things he put off sorted out this week starting with his MP3 player.

Yeah - it was Bandage…
