This is just stupid..come on guys can you not just scrap him he undermines the good work of Broadsheet, Can we not just do a few more article slating Harbo, been ages sine we had one…the guy is just not funny
Harbo doesn’t have a book out, that’s why there’s a lack of harbo articles.
You may also have noticed the general silence since the web summit went away too.

Interesting article in the Phoenix Mag a few weeks ago about Harbo’s Lovin Dublin and its failure to turn a profit. Wonder how long Lovin Dublin will continue.

Ok. I think I understand people’s anger now. Even if it’s some “ironic” “parody” of “blokey blokes”, it’s still offensively terrible. Plus the fake hair. Plus the fake beard. Plus the catchphrase. Plus the literal character name. Plus the Meath/Louth accent. Plus the lazy ‘random juxtaposition = jokes’ style of “humour”. Jebus.

Wondering if this isn’t some kind of social experiment, undertaken by BS but sponsored by Trinity psych. department (for example), to see just how far they can push us before we revolt; in both senses of the word.

The true Leather Jacket Guy is the friends we made along the way.
(Anyone up for a Christmas panto, The Wizard of Broadhseet? Don Pidgeoni, on her idyllic farm in Kerry, whisked away by an extreme weather event with her little dog Moyestoto, to a land of strange colours and little people with high-pitched voices, the Broadsheet offices, where her prefab social housing unit lands on Denis O’Brien who was there handing out legal writs, and she ends up with his ruby cuff links she sets out on a journey to the Leather Jacket Guy Of Broadsheet whose beard has the power to send her home, and she meets rotide who has no heart and Fluffy who has no language centre in their brain and Millded who has no wi-fi connection, and they have many adventures until they find LJG, whose beard turns out to be fake, but that’s okay, the things they wanted all along were already inside them, which begs the question as to why Mildred ate the wi-fi router, and Don caught the bus home and Moyestoto ran off after some flying monkeys.)
I wrote them while living in Flapham Common in London
edalicious
Yeah, I’d take his play and subs counts with a pinch of salt, Moyest. I was wondering if any actual real people that frequent this site actually click on, watch and enjoy these videos
MoyestWithExcitement
Obviously they do. The comments section does not represent the entirety of the websites readership. Not even close.
edalicious
Obviously? Why do you say obviously? It would be of benefit to LJG to have his videos up on Broadsheet even if no one was actually watching his videos here.
mildred st. meadowlark
edalicious, don’t bother. I’ve just had a more cogent and rational conversation with my 3 year old.
MoyestWithExcitement
So what benefit would that be?
rotide
Don’t fall into the trap ed!
MoyestWithExcitement
Sorry, Meadow. What’s the adult response to ‘Who crawled down your throat and took a poo?’ Are you actually taking the highground after starting off a ‘conversation’ with me like that?
mildred st. meadowlark
Yes. I believe I can. Considering the way you frequently talk to people on this site who don’t agree with your point. My original comment was meant as a light hearted jibe. It is not my fault that your sense of humour is seriously lacking. I’m done with this now. Have a good day Moyest. Cheer up.
MoyestWithExcitement
Don’t mimd that troll, Rotide, ed. He’s just trying to drag you down to his level.
MoyestWithExcitement
“Considering the way you frequently talk to people on this site who don’t agree with your point.”
No, I only speak to bottyholes like that. If I’m speaking to you like an bottyholes, it’s because you behaved like one. Take responsibility for your bottyhole behaviour and go calm down.

LJG… where the comedy never starts.
How much are you charging to host his tripe? It’s clearly nowhere near enough.

I always ignore LJG posts but not before catching a glimpse of the subject matter.
He does this for less than €20 a day in revenue. I’d contribute to him never doing it again. Any one for a kickstarter campaign? I’d even pay €5 per month to be a “premier” subscriber to BS, as long as I don’t have to see this or some other stuff again.

This is pathetic. A real step down for BS. LJG is bad to begin with, but this is appalling crap.
rotide
a step down from the lofty heights of Moon Landing Denial and 3 day old r eddit memes?
I think the BS editors should hand over control for a day to a few commentators (Clampers, Don, Meadow and Moyest) and see what they come up with. Might be an interesting experiement.
Its getting old now with the LJG articles, the ex FF fella and his inane rants and the soft liberal fluffy stuff that is half read from Dan Boyle
Most of BS has great stuff, the music reviews, movie reviws,. I like the SD editorials, Michael Taft but it just needs some tweaking in my book to be better.

One of the things you should know about Broadsheet, and by extension the comments section, is that it tends to turn up quite high on Google search results in Ireland. And it does so quite quickly.

I would happily pay a monthly subscription fee to Broadsheet if there was a better editorial policy in place; one that ensured absolute muck like this did not get featured on the site. Or maybe it does get featured, but premium subscribers don’t have to see it. And I mean this Leather Jacket Guy thing specifically. I’m not looking to open a pandora’s box of editorial decisions. Just this. Just get rid of this execrable nonsense.

Ask yourself this question.
If you had to endure more than a minute of this lad in real life, how long would it take you to come to the conclusion that this will end only one way, in you kicking the snot out of him.
He is a person of no fixed talent, a player of the pink oboe, his shtick centering around being a swaggering, low rent, cock about town, oirish annoying pre-teen brother of ricky gervais, and frankly, i can think of no more damning faint praise than that.
Kieran NYC
I thought it was abundantly clear for some time now that Broadsheet loves to troll its readers.
:-Joe
Ok not a fan and didn’t bother watching it despite liking
the idea that this could actually be funny and informative in some way or another. Let’s face it the level of sex-ed in this country over the last century is fairly non-existant.
Why people are losing the rag over this is hilarious.
You have the right to be offended or you can just ignore it.
Just close your eyes for two seconds and keep scrolling down the page…
Jesus Christ. This is the worst thing that has ever been on the internet. Ever. Just stop. Please.
This is just stupid..come on guys can you not just scrap him he undermines the good work of Broadsheet, Can we not just do a few more article slating Harbo, been ages sine we had one…the guy is just not funny
Harbo’s a self pleasurer.

As soon as the Lovin with the creditors stops..
But when will they? It’s not like it’s ever going to turn a profit.
“undermines the good work of Broadsheet”. Quite possibly the funniest and weirdest thing I’ve read today.

Of course not. You’re drama is untouchable.

Don’t lie fluffy, you’ve had it written for years
It was part of my previous musical “Count Flapula”
Is that the one that includes the smash hit “you are the wind beneath my flaps (the beans mix)”?

I naturally recommended Broadsheet and then he text me last week saying he saw some LJG video and decided that the site was a waste of time.
Oh god. No, just no on every possible level.
this is actually awful. revolting. take it to unilad or something, doesn’t fit in on broadsheet!!!
