“Ultimate Sweat” I feel seen

Absolute banger, no notes. Actually, one note, invalid use of the term “solar system”. Has slightly altered my feelings for spiders #BookSky

In the ad where Deirdre the Tesco worker is in a taxi and asked if she's been busy, it's my contention that when she throws herself backward against the seat, she's actually having a fatal medical episode and the rest of the ad is playing out in her mind in a Jacob's Ladder scenario #SpéirGorm

Screenshot from the Tesco ad where Deirdre the Tesco worker is in a taxi underwater with a mermaid swimming past the window. She is clearly suffering from some serious neurological condition (brain bleed or similar) and we are seeing the final bizarre conjurings of her mind as she circles the drain. It's quite sad and I'm not sure if it inspires me to do my weekly shop in Tesco to be honest

They flipped a hornet and got him to do some real Donnie Brasco shit

Hard to believe it's seven years since this criminally under-appreciated tweet. Luckily it has been immortalised in mug form for posterity. It is the fate of some geniuses not to be recognised in their lifetimes #SpéirGorm

If there was an ad campaign for an Irish beer featuring loads of stereotypical Irish shit and then it turned out the beer is brewed in, like, Luton or Essex or somewhere… we would fucking riot. And rightfully so #SpéirGorm

This made me wonder if Irish-Americans actually buy into the stereotypes as much as they do in fiction. However, really enjoyed it, like a decent HBO cop series #BookSky

Mitch’s treatment involved a revolutionary DNA replacement procedure, so this is to be expected (that his reaction times are now lightning fast)

A tortoise. Its mouth is open, similar to how Mitch’s mouth is open in the video. This is because both creatures share much of the same genetic code

Six-year-old me would be impressed that Mr Benn liked my post about Bono looking like the shopkeeper from Mr Benn, but would prefer if I posted about the Fraggles instead

As if by magic, the shopkeeper appeared

Bono, appearing in a portrait-aspect cameo style message to congratulate Katie Taylor on her Croke Park fight. He wears rose-tinted glasses that are strangely large and go way up on his forehead, along with a kind of cylindrical shaped hat, he looks like a desiccated version of the shopkeeper from the costume shop frequented by Mr. Benn

To clarify, I enjoyed the below, but the depiction of Mickey Sullivan’s gang (imaginatively named “The Irish”) verges on a hate crime of 19th century proportions #BookSky #SpéirGorm

Some panels from The Long Halloween showing Irish mobsters in jail. They use works like “t’aint” and “if’n” and look like monstrous ape-like 19th century anti-Irish characatures

Another one that’s been in my shelf (since 2010 apparently) so about time I got to it. I tore through it, but wouldn’t say it’s as good as Dark Knight Returns for example. Interesting to see little bits that ended up in the Nolan films #BookSky

Currently being haunted by this character on the Duffy’s Circus ads around Dublin. Looks normal enough from a distance, then up close - STEALTH CLOWN #SpéirGorm

Close-up on the poster and the man is wearing very subtle clown makeup, which is not even slightly cool, people deserve a warning

This post brought me down a minor rabbit hole and I’ve learned more than I cared to about the Oetker dynasty

Second World War
During the 1930s and 1940s, Rudolf August Oetker was an active member of the Waffen-SS
of the Third Reich. The company supported the war effort by providing pudding mixes and munitions to German troops. The business used slave labour in some of its facilities. A bronze bust of Richard Kaselowsky still sits within the company headquarters in Bielefeld. Kaselowsky was killed during an air raid on Bielefeld in 1944.
12] The Oetker family is among those that have profited most from their close relations to the Nazi regime.

I guess the European Aquatics Championships 2026 mascot is supposed to be a water drop, but it doesn’t look too happy. It’s probably worried it’ll be dropped on a wild fire

The mascot in question one arm raised in salute. One leg is also raised, perhaps also in salute, who knows. Its mouth and eyes are wide open in what may be a look of distress

Not many people realise that each Bond film has a secret easter egg villain that he shoots dead in the opening title sequence. In Die Another Day it was bin Laden and in Spectre it was Charlie Kirk #BondJamesBond

The iconic James Bond gun barrel. Bond is posed holding his Walther PPK and there is blood cascading down the screen, somehow inside the gun of his victim. In this particular one, Goldfinger (1964), the secret villain Bond kills is JFK

One of his earliest works as I understand it but the bleakness is undeniable as in his later stuff. Some weird parallels with No Country. Would be a stretch to say I liked it, but it was good #BookSky

Was expecting something a bit more profound from this one, as have seen it on many sci-fi top 10 lists, but it’s a good friendship-through-adversity story. The gender stuff was interesting but didn’t feature quite as heavily as I thought it would #BookSky

Been thinking about Barry Scott. Anyone remember Barry Scott? The Cilit BANG went off too close to Barry Scott’s ears, that’s why he would shout all the time. Should have stayed at a safe distance, Barry Scott #BarryScott
