Everything. As It Happens.
the law has finally caught up with badatmemes for his crimes against netiquette
You might not believe this, and I don’t care if you don’t…
My 16yr daughter called me at 3:10pm. She was in the Pharmacy in Citywest when this guy got arrested. She was very distressed.
Fair play to the Gardaí for controlling the situation, and to the Pharmacy for closing their shutters and locking her inside out of harm’s way.
When I get home I’ll ask her why she wasn’t in school. Now is not the right time.
PS.
What is this ‘netiquette’ you speak of?
PPS.
If I had the same initials as Bill Bailey I’d post a comment saying ‘Shots fired!’,
I’m not that type of guy though. Sorry.
I call bullpoo
Did bullpoo call you back?
That’s perfectly okay.
I don’t come here to find friends, and even if I did you wouldn’t be in the running.
I have a real life, with real friends…
…you wouldn’t understand.
glad your daughter is ok Mr upside-down
Yes so am I. I’m sure the OP was just having a cheap laugh
+1
it only becomes frightening when it it hits you personally.
In itself, that’s more frightening, more worrying…
We are being divided because we are driven to live in fear of each other.
– If you don’t know what I mean ask a Russian.
NEVER succumb to fear.
Be strong.
That’s what I told my daughter.
you’re a good father, fair play
+1
She is safe and sound T.G. I think we are extremely lucky that we had no fatalies today in Dublin.
Sorry badatmemes, it was a daft joke, I’m delighted your daughter is safe.
maith an fir nó maith na fir?
No maither.
This is a video of events posted by Paul Mc Auley, a local plumber, on the facebook this afternoon: https://www.facebook.com/paul.mcauley.96/videos/1583060015107213/
Was this an exercise? I doubt there are that many armed armed Gardai in the one area that can arrive within that short space of time. And a photographer on hand with his zoom lense and all that. Maybe Mememan can get the full story?
False flag like Sandyhook?
Just seems odd. It’s being reported on radio though, so must be up front and true.
odd like Sandy Hook?
Sorry GidditeyPoo.
I made it all up.
I fooled the Gardaí and RTÉ, but I cannot fool you.
Nothing happened. I’m sorry.
My daughter was never in danger.
I was wrong.
You’re great.
I apologise
PS.
I would LOVE to meet you before I calm down.
dude
I have people tell me I drempt the Bataclan
pack of doses
I’m sorry Janice.
I’m drunk. I say stupid things sometimes.
I didn’t actually mean to be an A-hole.
It’s not as easy as I make it look to be like what I think I think I am, even if it isn’t the real me, really, and that’s no joke.
(And the correct spelling is ‘dreamt’.)
Sorry.
You’re cool.
You’re one of the six or seven.
No way!
Good of him to tap into the flow of events.
Should have arrested for wearing shorts in October.
He was. As for yer man on his right wearing flares… well…
Did the last person off the Vegas ask a broadsheet reader thread turn off the lights or is the debate still raging?
You’ll never know.
You never had your lights turned on.
That entire debate on that entire thread was faked.
8 hours & six cars before fugitive with a gun was apprehended by the Garda. God help us all if we were under attack from a group of Islamic terrorists actually intent on slaughter. Half the city would be wiped out.
If this had been a mass shooting event, the death toll would have been huge. 10 Guards run in the door and the guy runs out the door they all just came in. He’s lucky he didn’t get shot to be honest.
If anything this should be a serious wake up call if we did face a terror attack.
They got him but that can’t be considered a good result
Great group rugger tackle by the Gardai on the Shorts Man. Shoppers got away neatly with their bags too.
I get you, Ben Roundabout…
…These Tallaght-Dwelling Sub-humans are all shoplifters, innit?
It such a laugh.
Luckily nobody innocent got shot
It would’ve ruined your pathetic joke.
What is wrong with you people?
Seriously…
I know as little as any of you about this affair..
What I DO know is that it was the Tallaght Gardaí who apprehended the guy.
Come back to me when we find out where he came from.
I could be wrong….
How about you spend the evening talking to your daughter about the world and what’s in your head.
I think you need a family member to commit. Might help.
XXXX
I’m at work.. She’s asleep.
Start again.
How about you spend your “evening” talking to your daughter, during her “morning”, about what happened yesterday.
You can commit yourself. We all need help.
XOXOXO
Sorry Yep…
You think I’m at home or on my ‘free-time’ because I’m drunk.
I’m actually at work.
I’m rolling a joint. It isn’t me first one tonight.
I never pretend I actually ‘work’ when I’m at work.
I just don’t give a flipperty flupp..
My employer is terrified of me, and that works for me.
What he doesn’t know won’t upset him and he likes it like that.
What kinda job do you have?
A day one. I’m hungover. I post silly stuff sometimes with a few in. I’m sorry.
He’s from Tallaght.
Is it just me, or are the garda a tad on the casual side of the ould dress code? Nonetheless, they looked impressive in the plumber’s video.
Funny thing Shayna, but get this….
(I swear, it’s kinda related.)
The ticket- inspectors on the Luas have stopped wearing their Hi-Vis jackets.
Think about it…
Anyway, my next comment is directed at Yep.
(It’s your Birthday next week, so shut up.)
Sorry Shayna.
I didn’t mean that.
For all I know you’re probably a bigger man than me.
Fuppin; Internet… It wreck me heads.
I get it -ta! Also, thanks for remembering that I’m child of All Hallows E’en e’en.
Thank you Shayna for being the only other person I suspect of being able to spell ‘Hallowe’en’ properly.
It means a lot.
(I’m a closet pedant, but don’t tell anyone.)
PS.
The word ‘World’ in the context you used it needs a capital letter.
I’m not not normally one to dictate what others ought to do, but in your case I’m prepared to make an exception.
