The Dunph is not an alright sort?

Ah, here…

Moved on from the internet? Really?

glasagusban · November 9, 2015, 4:49pm

What does he do while he’s taking a shit if he doesn’t look at TFK?

balbec · November 9, 2015, 4:49pm

He probably writes poetry about Prussia or something.

Weird.

When the history of the internet is written I assume it will contain the following chapter:

The Dunph - the Icarus of the internet

For a short while he had it all and rode majestically through this forum on a translucent steed. There are a few Johnny come latelys on here whom the dunph would have turn their brains to mushy soup with his iron fist if he was still here

Just read this thread over from start to finish. It seemed like a great time to be a part of this forum. This Dunph guy was very resilient to have survived that poll and won the day. A lot of those posters that tried to topple him fell by the way side themselves after the unsuccessful poll and are no longer here today. While it seems the Dunph rode off into the sunset with his head held high. Well at least that’s what it looks like to a new poster here reading back over the history of this forum.

SHANNONSIDER:

Art Foley (V.O.)

“At first, I thought they handed me the wrong dossier. I couldn’tbelieve they wanted this man dead. Third generation Sexton Street,CBS, top of his class. Scouts, FCA, Macra. About a thousand medals. Etc, etc… I’d seen his posts on the forum and they really put a hookin me. But I couldn’t connect up that syntax with this man. Like theysaid, he had an impressive career. Maybe too impressive… I meanperfect. He was being groomed for one of the top slots of the corporation. Moderator, Admin, anything… In 2009 he returnedfrom a tour of chippers in Limerick and things started toslip. The report to the Mulliance chiefs of staff and The Runtwas restricted. Seems they didn’t dig what he had to tell them. Duringthe next few months he made three requests for transfer to extreme moderator training school in Raheen, Limerick. And he was finally accepted. Moderator School ? He was 21 years old. Why the fuck would he do that ?Autumn 2009 he joined the Limerick Chippers Group, returns to Limerick…”

“Never get out of the boat. Absolutely goddamn right. Unless you were going all the way. The Dunph got off the boat. He split from the whole fucking program. How did that happen? What did he see herethat first tour? 21 fucking years old. If he joined the Moderators, there was no way you’d ever get high up in the Mulliance. The Dunph knew what he was giving up. The more I read and began to understand, the more I admired him. His family and friends couldn’t understand it, and they couldn’t talk himout of it. He had to apply three times and he had to putup with a ton of shit, but when he threatened to resign, they gave it to him. The next youngest guy in his class washalf his age. They must have thought he was somefar-out old man humping it over that moderators course. I did it when I was 19 and it damn near wasted me. A toughmotherfucker. He finished. He could have gone for head of the Mulliance,but he went for himself instead.”

You’d have been locked up if you said out loud back in 2009 that @shannonsider @bandage and @flano would eventually find female companionship, not to mind all of them within just 5 years.

It’s a funny old world.

Every ould sock finds an ould shoe pal.

glasagusban · November 9, 2015, 9:47pm

Was it @horsebox that ran him off the board for a finish?

The Dunph was some cabbage in fairness. That bit about him roasting the smoked salmon will be hard to beat.

anon61956325 · November 9, 2015, 10:26pm

Wrapped it in tin foil and stuck it in the oven.

What about the yarn he spun about living in France and getting caught by his flatmate eating cereal in the kitchen in nothing but an old ripped pair of tighty whiteys.

ciarancareyshurlingarmy · November 9, 2015, 10:34pm

You can take the man from Wesht Limerick but you cant take the Wesht Limerick form the man

glasagusban · November 9, 2015, 10:42pm

Never mind that, what about the time he stepped over his housemate having sex on the couch and blamed the housemate because the other lad should have known it was time for his mini roll

the haircut story is the greatest piece of prose ever written
