...depression thread, whether it was for themselves or others. It's also a sort of safe space for posters to say that they've had it, too, which is *extremely* comforting for anyone who thinks he or she is alone. Finding out that someone you know to be shit-cool and really awesome has not had...

Grand so. It's not a strictly Irish-related blog anyway. Hence the subtitle "material culture and other modern wreckage". This morning's post is about the rise and fall of the View-Master. Later in the week it will be about hotels, I think. There will probably be a significant amount of...

...really upset me because you already fucking knew that I've been here a long time. That's fucking lame of you to do. If you were someone who *didn't* know me off thumped, then you'd just be another troll who thinks it's fun to pick on people for saying exactly what half the country is...

Thanks, Gambra. I didn't know you could do that. Switched 'em off.

I didn't know it was you. And anyway, my post had nothing to do with my being American, but your reaction to it did. Jaysus. Seriously, you can troll my blog but I'm not required to respond to blog trolls on the blog comments, and I'm not banned from saying that someone was already...

Ha ha, I already got my first abuse about not being a Eugenically-pure Irish person and as such not entitled to speak about anything related to Ireland. It's not a strictly Irish blog anyway, but I guess having a Paddy's Day post makes it so. Why is it that people take the piss out of...

I'm not done putting it together, but I thought I'd start putting up some posts. I'll get into the swing of it soon enough. The first few are old articles I did for TD, and I might put up a few more from there, but mostly it'll be original stuff about material culture and whatnot, a mixture...

I want Richard Thompson. I mean, you know, not like *that*. Hey, did you ever hear his song called "Dear Janet Jackson"? Dear Janet Jackson You don't know me but I saw you on the telly you were wiggling like jelly when you gave that song some welly I couldn't help but notice there...

Do you need a babysitter? I know three absolutely fricking AWESOME women who do babysitting, all Yanks and all very funny (which I think is a good trait in a babysitter). One might not be looking (she's about to wind up a live-in job, but I think she's staying on with them part-time). Another...

Ah, the amazing dress. She got it in All Saints in London, which is surprising because I didn't know they sold anything that was deadly. But apparently they do. And there's one in Dublin (in the Powerscourt Centre) and it was recent enough that they might have one. Ta daaaaa!

Who's in the lineup that's coming here? OMFG. So excited.

We should do a Thumped one called Prickopedia. http://www.mickopedia.org/

Do! They really need to be better promoted, I think. I also wonder if maybe they're better known to foreign tourists, and maybe there's been a dropoff. But we booked only a few weeks in advance for ours, and it was over a rugby weekend. They also do an excellent job with restoration, or at...

Most of them work out cheaper than a hotel if you've got enough people. We stayed at 25 Eustace for our wedding and it was fuckin' deadly. We wanted to stay somewhere that wasn't our house, but somewhere where we could actually have guests come and hang out, and it was actually way cheaper...

We booked our tickets. Yay! See yiz pricks there.

Relax you will. Doing it wrong you are.

Me n' Mr Jane will be there if we can get tickets tomorrow.

Is it much different from this? Where to find the answers, how to lie, how to fake it, how to scheme, when to face the truth, when to dream, etc.

A friend of mine teaches yoga and pilates in a few different places, but I think mostly in Portobello? I went to a class that was at Melt, and was great, but it was a good few years ago. Pilates I can handle because it's more active and no one is barking at me to relax while warning me not to...
