Irish Thingy Awards strikes back
Grandad March 8th, 2011
I received an email this morning.
There is nothing unusual there. I receive dozens of emails, offering me everything from Viagra to Russian brides [I usually order both. Don’t need the Viagra but one can’t be too careful with those Russian women]. This email however was from the Irish Thingy Awards.
It told me I had been shortlisted in two categories. [I knew that]
It told me I could only be shortlisted in one category. [I knew that too]
It told me that I had to decide which category to enter under.
Fuck!
I don’t know.
Is this a Personal Site or is it a Humour Site? What differentiates a Personal Site from a Humour Site? If it were a Personal Site, I would expect it to be all about me. It isn’t. If it were a Humour Site I would expect to laugh when I read it. I don’t.
I’ll tell you what I’ll do…..
I’ll let you lot decide.
Personal or Humour?
?
That way I can blame you lot when I don’t win.
Hah!

Personal site mate although your good for a chuckle all the same!
Your site is a bit of each isn’t it? I would go with you with humor, though. You have made me laugh once or twice over the years.
I agree with Belfast Taxi Driver
See!!! I have been telling you that this BLOG award thing is all fucked up anyway. I think you should wait until the end of 2011 and then decide what you are. That way if you don’t win anything, you can be at peace because you didn’t win something for what hasn’t happend yet. (Your BLOG is personal/humor, anyway.)
Hmmmm. Two Personal, one Humour and Willie. [I take it, Willie that you are a Republican/Democrat?]
So I made TT laugh once or twice? There’s hope for the world yet…
Come on. I mean WTF does ‘personal’ even mean in this context?
Humour, I’d say. I, too, may have smiled once. Or twice.
I would go with personal, personally. It just so happens that you have a humorous personal blog.
Decisions! Decisions! Too much pressure!! Toss a coin?
TT – I have not got a fucking clue. I don’t organise these things.
Cathy – Thanks and bugger! That makes 2 each.
Daniel – Now you’re confusing things further by saying it’s both, Damn!
Melemian – That’s the first decent suggestion so far. I don’t have a coin. I’ll toss herself instead and see if she lands heads or arses.
Just call it a humourus personel site
Your truth makes us laugh, ’cause it’s so close to the bone. Perhaps, that’s your personal humour at work.
Just tell then your in a coalition (with yerself!).
Personally, you are a dang humorous fellow, sometimes, occassionally, now and then….
Thank you for all your comments and suggestions but the whole thing is academic now. The buggers have decided in my absence to stick me in under Humour. Have they never heard of democracy? Elections?
Leastwise I am apparently in the last five for Humour. And that’s as far as I shall go.
GD…I’m a damnocrat. “Last five”? Top or bottom?
Go for humour. I think you’re in with a better chance . Completely mercenary I know but I find you funnier than I find you personal, if you get me.
Congratulations Grandad
They stuck you under humour, so reply back and say you want to be in Personal.
My original thought was to tell them that you don’t want to be in either. That would show them.
Yea it’s personal but I wouldn’t be reading it every single day if it weren’t so darn hilarious. I absolutely vote HUMOR. Can I vote twice?
I guess we won.
Willie – There are only five so top or bottom is kinda academic?
Darragh – Apparently that is where I ended up. And why do I get the feeling that people only laugh at me when I’m trying to be serious?
Rabbit – Thanks! And congratulations to you too. I see you’re in there under Best Post?
5h4mr0(k – I had that original thought too, but the sods moved too fast for me.
I am indeed. God knows why. It’s not one of my favourites!
Wow – well done Grandad! What a shame you couldnt just run in both categories?
Your’s is simply a site for sore eyes grandad, and I mean that in the best possible way!
Motherdear – That would be a tad greedy, would it not?
Aw, thanks, John. But if you’re looking for compensation, you’re out of luck. I’m broke.
Your not funny… so find another category.
I suggest BEST TERRORIST bloggy thingy, or MOST LIKELY TO CAUSE AN INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT category.
Love;
Cranky Canuck
Don’t think much of me, do you?
Love GD
I think of you lots!
But YOUR the one that hunts tourists for fun and profit and I do recall the time you gave lost backpackers directions that sent them into a bog.
Or how about that time an American tourist pulled up into your driveway and you put Sandy onto him.
Hush! You don’t want the whole world to know!!
You recall THE TIME I sent tourists to the Bog? Which time? I have sent dozens [probably hundreds at this stage] up to The Bogs. Can’t you be more specific?
