  1. Gay pride? What are you talking about? It's a flag with a rainbow on it. I just wanted something happy in my avatar is all, and something colourful. Man, what, now you have to live in a Black and White world to stay heterosexual? Jeez.

    I found it in google image search.

    And you suck.


  2. Midgetgolf!? HAAAhahaha!!!

    Speaking of small people, I just remembered something somewhat amusing. The drunk babies are not allowed drink milk for twenty four hours after their birthday, because the alcohol turns it sour in their stomachs. Many a mother has made their child very sick by trying to hide the Alka Seltzer in a bottle of milk. Because those cranky, hungover babies don't like Alka Seltzer. Those cranky, hungover babies don't like anything.

    Except more alcohol! Instead of hiding the Alka Seltzer in milk, you should mix it with a small quantity of whiskey. Not only does the whiskey mask the taste of the cure, but babies like whiskey. Seriously. If you have a baby, try giving it whiskey. Or if you're scared and/or not Irish, let it taste it off the tip of your finger. Babies love whiskey. They're little alcoholics.

    Which may be because in Ireland, we use Guinness to cure Colic in babies, and rum as a painkiller when they get cuts/bruises.

    There's an episode of Father Ted where the nun is trying to find a home for an orphan and she lets Ted look after the baby orphan for a while, and Ted has to give her a birthday party and decides to put the Alka Seltzer in the guinness to kill two birds with one stone, and the baby starts throwing up everywhere, baby-style. And then Bishop Brennan comes to stay.

    Anyway. Tell me more about this Hollish 'Midgetgolf' tradition!


  3. I posted this over at AG, but I thought that I'd post it here too because a lot of Mojo'ers mix their mojo here, and--- oh man, that was lame.

    Anyway.

    Yesterday I spoke to an american who'd never heard of the Irish Celebration day, Buidhean dár sluagh, which basically means 'Young and Old Alike'. It's a celebration of life in general, and a person recieves it at the age of one year, and again at the age of sixty. It's like an extra special birthday. It means that the old and young of Ireland are alike despite their age and things like this. It's celebrated with an extra big party.

    It works like this;

    If you're one year old you're given a pint of guinness, and if you're sixty you're given a pint of milk. It's kinda like saying, the young will one day be old, but the old are always young at heart.

    Although at the moment they're trying to make Guinness develop a 'Guinness Light' for babies, because often the kid gets a little drunk and might try to drink other peoples drinks. Once, recently, a baby had to go in to get it's stomach pumped. But it was a very small baby, it didn't look like a one year old, and it was practically smaller than the pint glass.

    So,

    It's such a normality for Ireland, I can't believe they hadn't heard of it. Which makes me think... what are the customs and traditions of your country? Tell them here.


  4. Speaking of which, I converted a turtle the other day. To athiesm.

    Remo, I have no idea what you are talking about. I know there is a joke or something there, somewhere. But I have a very, very bad headache and I just... I just... I keep looking and looking and... and.. I see....

    ...I see your new signature.

    His name is really 'Spafford'?
