It’s so nice to see, now and then,
Token women out winning again,
But it is a disgrace,
That they don’t know their place,
And expect to be treated like men.

It’s an outrage to be forced to stay,
At work looking busy all day,
So knock back a brew,
Then another, then two,
And drink till your head starts to sway.

Pic posed by model
In Killorglin they’re having a fair,
So they’ve hoisted a goat in the air,
A curious thing,
To do to a king,
But the goat really likes it, they swear.

Mighty news has blown over from France,
That our heroines all seized their chance,
And beat the All Blacks,
Now just the Kazhaks,
Can stop the green army’s advance.

It’s not the first game for a phone,
Where shots are fired and bombs are thrown,
But blowing up schools,
Just breaks all the rules,
And it’s something no one should condone.

UPDATE: Not an actual thing, just a week-old photoshopped skit, as JohnM points out in comments.
Next year will we be in the red?
There’s a chance, but I’m starting to dread,
That if a drink of water,
Costs more than it ought to,
I’ll stick to the whiskey instead.

Hey @broadsheet_ie, why no article on half the civil servants, nurses, gardai and academic staff in the country not being paid today?

It’s an honour to work for the state,
And while the pay ain’t always great,
Generations have found,
Their jobs safe and sound,
And you know that the cash won’t be late.

It’s lovely, I’m sure you’ll agree,
Some profits back at AIB,
Will we now create,
A safe bank for the state,
Or sell it cheap? Just wait and see.
