The main disengagement of said critical faculties taking place when they decided to cover the tedious fucking non-story in the first place.

Perhaps not but, for certain, only Jesus can cure an Achy Break Heart.

TAB's theory that the descendants of a few ruddy-faced Proddy god-botherers from Portadown were responsible for Nagasaki and Hiroshima is potentially good news for the local economy. If I were him I'd write to the Norn Iron tourist board and make them aware of this fact.
Who knows, there could be a hair transplant and/or a new banjo in it for him?
A Nuclear Nightmare Centre could see visitor numbers to Armagh literally explode to a trickle and would consign Belfast's ghoulish obsession with disaster and death, The Titanic Centre, to a well-deserved nuclear winter.

Oh, meant to add that the DUP claimed that line-dancing was 'satanic' a few years back.

Quite right too.

oh no, those people are the barely literate god botherers who live in swamps and fuck themselves and play with snakes. They're the sort of hillbilly who can reputedly shoot out the eye of a squirrel with a rifle, because er, that's the way that they roll. No you people gave america biblical literalism, evangelical christianity, the born again movement, a belief in the rapture, and the desirability of a clash of cultures, along with a culture of incurious anti-intellectual ignorance.

I mean the nuclear bomb requires a belief in physics and science, and that;s more of a jewish thing. Quite frankly the high points of nordie scientific development are a cruise liner that killed more people than any other, towers of burning tires, passing green diesel through bread, so it destroys engines, poisons the water table, and kills everyone who comes in contact with the waste. Oh and the ability to look at bags of farmyard fertlizer and imagine that you could kill people with it.

The scots-irish emigrants to the USA have done more than anyone else to roll back the age of reason, and the enlightenment, and that's quite the achievement.

I read an interview with him years ago, long before all this rubbish started up. He seemed like a cool guy actually. He was very honest about the fact that what he was serving up was cornball crapola for Nascar fans.

Amen. Seriously, this is a complete nothing of a story, folks. Surely there's better things to talk about?

[MsD]

Gender, sexuality and power in the media and music industry?

[Keyzer]

Come On Sinead, kick her fucking head in.....

All of which has been discussed fleetingly, if at all, on this thread.

[MsD]

But that's why it is a story in the media, it's not just two famous women having a little tiffette. It's not worth the effort here, for me.

The most shocking thing about all of this, is that I have found out in this thread that Miley Cyrus is actually Billy Ray Cyrus'daughter.
I never knew that before - my one new piece of knowledge a day is complete.

Yes, I thought her Dad was actually Cyrus the Virus from Con Air.

I am still sympathetic to Sinead's original reaction (albeit judgey and a bit "shaming") but .. I really wouldn't want to align myself with the bile going Miley's way since (from the public and from various commentators). That is all.
