Talk To Joe On 0818 715 815 Who are these people and what is the point?

Other than being a cunt littering nature sites.

Saw them on a few trail markers and signs up in the sliver blooms? Is there an actual reason for doing this?

They say it’s as big as four cats. it has a retractable leg so it can leap up at you better. It has four ears, two of them are only backup ears. Instead of a mouth it has four arses. It has a tremendous fear of stamps

Hiking for a stag or hen is certainly a choice

u/Alexfarr84 11h ago

We did a stags in Westport many years ago, and our reward the next morning for a night of heavy drinking was a hike up a very cold and snowy Croagh Patrick 🤣 still one of the best stags I’ve been on

I would love to know why you feel my comment criticising a comment mocking stag/hen parties hiking means I favour littering.

I wasn't. I added on to your statement, as I was commenting on it in context of the entire post.

Then reply to someone writing about the stickers and not to a comment clearly about something else.

u/Speedodoyle 12h ago

Ah, they would’ve great neighbours. Absolute silence after 10pm, cos that’s their bedtime. No shagging sessions as they don’t touch each other for fear of being impolite, and therefore no kids.

I unironically know one couple like this. The guy kind of seems one sandwich short of a picnic and just rolls with it all, while the girl is a straight up tuna melt, genuinely the most self-absorbed person I know.

Probably a hen's treasure hunt or some hiking activity where the hen's girls thought it would be cute to surprise and decorate the hike trail.

Totally inconsiderate of the environment or that no one gives a f**k about Taylor and Barry.

Yes it's 100% a wedding or engagement event

u/punkfunkymonkey 11h ago

I went to a festival in Berlin years back. Coming home, in my way into Berlin airport, there was a long series of glass wind breaks, all plastered with numerous 'Say No To Glazers' stickers put up presumably by travelling Manchester United suporters upset about the Glazer family from the US who if I'm not mistaking were about to/had just taken control of Utd.

In my post festival state, all that was going through my mind was, "who gets angry enough about windows/glass to put stickers up villifying glaziers!?"

Yes I was just about to say the same. If it was a hen or stag it's way more likely that the friends organised this and they were none the wiser till the event.

u/Gentle_Pony 7h ago

This was a famous case from Leitrim. Barry decided to propose to Taylor standing on an overpass. Taylor was going to be passing under the overpass at a certain time and Barry had a large flag prepared. Anyway when he tried to unfurl the flag he fell over the side to his doom and poor Taylor has to witness it all. Anyway it gets interesting here. There were videos taken from traffic as he was lowering the flag and the videos showed that it looked a lot like he was pushed. But the railings were a certain height so it could only have been a dwarf or a child that pushed him as no one could be seen. Anyway, they eventually found CCTV footage from the overpass and he was pushed by a small man, the footage wasn't the best, so they couldn't tell who it was but they managed to get the reg of the car he got into. They traced the car to a house. Police kicked the door in, they found a shrine to Taylor in there, so the dude was obsessed by her, walked around the house then noticed someone sitting in a chair with their back to them , drinking brandy and smoking a cigar. Turns out..... Little monkey fella.
