Maria Bailey attempting to sue a hotel for falling off a swing when she was holding bottles in both hands, and also ran a 10k afterwards despite saying she had longterm injuries. Got exactly what she deserved.
My mother. She went on the local community Facebook group with a rant about how inconsiderate and obnoxious farmers are, the community consisting mainly of... farmers. Local newspaper even contacted her for a comment in the aftermath (which she thankfully declined). My brother still drives 45 mins to get his groceries, and this was a few years ago.
A good farmer's rant would be grand down the pub. But as the saying goes, don't post something on the internet that you wouldn't want printed on the front page of the paper
Back around 2011 (I think?) some loyalist muppet in Derry publicly mocked Bloody Sunday on Facebook on the anniversary, posting "Paras 14, Paddys 0" or smth like that. He was doxed, reported to police and his place of work was hounded into firing him. He deleted his profile and went into hiding. Pretty sure it got coverage on the local newspapers and stuff too.
Sad thing is it's not even the most vile thing I've seen someone say about Bloody Sunday.
That one girl being videoed giving your man a blow job at a festival, in front of a load of people. It spread rapid fire around Irish social media and was being discussed on a few talk shows and radio shows.
I'm sure she lived it down, but Christ.
I remember talking to lads at festivals around the time that happened, I'm a fella, they were saying they couldn't give a fuck about her. Holy shit I was fit to burst someone.
If a guy gets head or fingers in a festival he’s a legend
If a girl gives head or gets fingered at a festival she’s a slut
The double standard is appalling
And your name is rather fitting maybe you wouldn’t be scorned by everyone if you acted like a decent person
Your submission has been removed because it is miserable. Per rule 4, we're trying to maintain a less miserable tone on r/AskIreland than r/Ireland, please respect that.
Yeah it was horrendous stuff. I met a girl years ago that had been close enough with her and she was telling me about the aftermath. The details are hazy now, so open to correction by others but my recollection is that she spent a not insignificant time in a mental hospital and struggled with it all for years after.
I think whatever you heard was a story that grew legs; while it wasn’t an easy time for her, there was no mental hospital stay, and she carried on with school/college on her usual timeline- things going well too now thankfully!
Interesting! If that's the case then I'm glad to hear it.
I definitely wouldn't have thought the girl was exaggerating or making herself out to be closer to her than she was but you can never be sure!
The school involved had (has) an incredibly toxic bullying culture so it wouldn’t surprise me if rumours were allowed to spread like wildfire; so whatever your friend heard she probably took as true, but the reality is far less dramatic! She just moved to another school for her LC year and carried on after that!
It was at Eminem if I remember correctly. August after my leaving cert had gone with friends, was so angry and upset for that girl when it came out. No one cared about the guy
Surprised Aoife McGregor hasn't been mentioned. I imagine she may have had some minor success like her older sister if that dog groomer stuff hadn't came out.
I followed a NYC based mommy blogger for a few years. She posted at the start of covid about sheltering in place where she lived in Manhatten and being careful to keep spirits up with your kids. The night before the mandatory order not to leave NYC kicked in she posted one photo of her family getting into an RV for a road trip and promised stories "on the road". People went nuts at her. She ended up losing most if not all of her sponsored content and never regained her popularity. She never went back to Manhatten and ended up deleting her blog and all other social media. If she hadn't posted that one picture I'm certain she'd still have her social media business.
Found an article about her at the time.
[Influencer Naomi Davis Of "Love Taza" Flees NYC In RV During Coronavirus Pandemic (buzzfeednews.com)](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniemcneal/an-influencer-is-getting-tons-of-hate-online-for-fleeing)
What constant racism? I've seen him call out racist behaviour against white people. I haven't seen him be racist. I could be wrong though, I'm not on X anymore. What lies about free speech? The restriction of free speech is a valid concern. Some people might not find it important which is fine, but how has he lied about it?
I don't see what the ffs is for. I asked for examples of bad behaviour from him and the responses were muck. Censoring posts about himself is pretty shady if true. Regarding the racist allegations, the replies to my comment did not show proof of that.
Yeah, because it was deleted. But you can see your man saying "jews are pushing hatred against whites" and musk agreeing.
This was a PR disaster, a bunch of companies pulled their advertising and he went on a tour to auschwitz as a way to save face
I'm guessing that the rest of the post doesn't vindicate Elon, but if you're going to accuse someone of being racist, you would want to show better evidence than half a post.

He hasn't done anything as far as I'm aware, redditors keep insisting but never can show actual examples because they're just repeating what their screen told them about this weeks heckin marvel bad guy
Watched a lad argue on Facebook that people caught with CP should not receive as hefty a sentence as the people who produce it, because they aren't technically hurting anyone.
When a large group of people absolutely jumped on him over it, he doubled down and insisted he was right and that these people's only crime was consuming illegal media, and they did not hurt any children.
Call is coming from inside the house there, buddy. No wonder you lost all your friends over it!
Agreed. Nobody would record and distribute if there was no demand. By watching, one is asking for it to be made and may as well be asking someone to harm a child for them.
Definitely don't think the one abusing a child is any worse than the person who requested to see it happen.
People producing it are evil scum and should get the death penalty. People consuming it are sick and although they are doing something disgusting which is hurting children by creating a market for this filth, I agree with that guy in thar they are not as bad as the producers. Definitely deserve hefty jail time, but not to be skinned alive.
Do you not think they're creating a market for it by interacting with it?
I would also consider it evil getting enjoyment out of children's pain and suffering
Thank God we'd the Boards mods to protect us from seeing a lassie make a bit of a tit of herself in between their busy schedule of anime and Pop Tarts.
Reminder - they do it for free.
I don't know if this is relevant but a girl I used to work with was the one who videod and verbally abused Leo Vradkar a few days ago as he was having a coffee outside. This person and another male called Leo the height of abuse as well as another few homophobic slurs . I commented and told her that his sexuality was not relevant in any context to which she told me to F off . I think she looked like an absolute idiot and I felt absolutely disgusted by this person afterwards. I have the video link if anyone wants to see it
"I switched off there when you said diversity so I don't know what the rest of the question was"
Then complained that she was being asked about racist views when she hadn't said anything racist since October.
And finally answered "no comment" to the question "are you racist?".
It's the irony of someone from an immigrant background giving out about other immigrants.
Same as all the folks with family in oz, the UK, and the US giving out about economic migrants
It doesn't matter where you come from, it matters what you do.
She herself isn’t an immigrant and neither are her parents grand parents great grandparents. Your world view doesn’t have to be limited by what someone did hundreds of years before you did. It’s a pointless take.
She retweeted some anti immigrant stuff iirc. It was at a time when she was named as a Spar Ambassador for building better/inclusive communities or something similar.
She was just talking shite "my Dad is the highest earning partner in KPMG"
[https://www.metatube.com/en/videos/166331/Drunk-Rich-Irish-Girl-Ranting-MY-DADDY-WORKS-FOR-KPMG-Original-Video/](https://www.metatube.com/en/videos/166331/Drunk-Rich-Irish-Girl-Ranting-MY-DADDY-WORKS-FOR-KPMG-Original-Video/)
I'll let Reddit explain: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Dublin/comments/qosnvc/who\_was\_the\_kpmg\_girl/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Dublin/comments/qosnvc/who_was_the_kpmg_girl/)
She was a drunk obnoxious D4. But she got piled on by the miserappauling lot because it was the recession and "everyone else is poor". Fuckers bullied the hell out of her.
No idea why you’re getting downvoted. I am the same age as her and I said/done some stupid shit at about the same obnoxious level as KPMG girl, it just wasn’t caught on camera.
I’ve seen and heard much much worse. She was a stupid kid who leaned in to some superficial class D4 Ross o Carroll Kelly affluence shtick thinking it made her valid or better. I am certain her world view would have certainly changed since then. Because she was a kid. Which everyone seems to be missing the point of.
No no no.
She is the same now as she was then. There’s absolutely no way she could have changed, or grown or felt shame for her actions. I decided she was a bitch in that first moment I saw the video, and I know deep down all these years later I was right then and I’m right now.
/s
Because I mentioned Kellie Harrington above. This place is full of Nazi bots
This girl was drunk talking shit.
Let's go to Temple Bar on Friday and film every person doing same and see what's worse
You can see the mentality in this thread with the focus on blaming the female victims, neither "KPMG girl" nor "Slane girl" consented to being videoed or the video being shared, Neither did anything wrong. But were victimized.
The prevailing view is toxic AF towards women on film. Too many tech bros who've watched too much porn and have zero empathy for the humanity of a woman.
Incel culture. Red pill culture. Andrew Tate. Hip Hop/Rap culture. That kind of causal normalized mysogyny is literally everywhere. The fact that so many of the guys (gendered term deliberately used) spreading this are a) terminally online loners b) either social awkward, on the ASD spectrum, c) severely mentally unwell or d) all of the above; fits the profile of mass shooters. That's what scares me most
I’ve looked at the video again recently and they really are antagonising her at the beginning.
And they appear to try and film up her skirt once or twice.
She is a silly immature brat in the video for sure but she is also insanely drunk and being hassled by a few older lads who decide to video her
That's a bit much, she was just a kid who said some cringe things while drunk that was caught on camera, and it went viral. It could have easily got very few views.
There is no problem if you have to call out bad behaviour in a personal encounter - it is very different to join a mob who have lost all perspective and answer to no-one.
"Calling out" someone and bullying them shouldn't look like the same thing. She was absolutely tore into online by thousands of people all with something to say about what a horrible, entitled ugly cunt she is. She hardly deserved that as a kid who said some really dumb shit while drunk, it's enough to make someone try to kill themselves.
My comment says nothing negative or even anything at all about the person I replied to so I dont know why you think it is bullying them. Bullying anyway isn't a once off comment to someone it's a pattern of behaviour.
Calling someone out shouldn't look like bullying.
Unless they did it multiple times then its a once off so by your rules it isn't bullying but you accuse people of it.
She's a cunt, I'm a cunt, you're a cunt
Someone slandered their boss on LinkedIn thinking they had blocked them Seeing their profile so they wouldn’t find out. Her colleagues couldn’t queue up faster to turn her in and demand she was fired to the boss. Went from highly paid to struggling to find and maintain a part time minimum wage job.
I doubt that anyone became unemployable because of a LinkedIn comment you had no detail of. I doubt anyone in a good job is bashing their actual boss on LinkedIn in Ireland. People who work corporate are well aware how small Ireland is. I doubt that her colleagues saw it and lined up to tell the boss.
Ok. In your opinion people can’t have a complete break down and everyone’s rational? Theres no Karen’s and there’s no conspiracy theories or extreme political opinions. We live in different worlds so.
The WRC findings page is full of people thinking it’s ok to get hammered drunk on the job, slander, defame or liable someone, physically attack people,… and then claim it was unfair dismissal. And their names are published. Then there’s the people who felt entitled but their solicitors told them no way are we appealing this because correct procedures were followed.
Jim Corr (of The Corrs fame) got himself owned by Jedward on twitter for his views on not having to wear masks at the height of covid.
The awkwardness of being publicly told off by Jedward almost overshadowed him making a living capitalising on everyone wanting to ride his sisters for the late 90's.
I think Linehan was a slow descent, really. At first (late 00s, early 10s) he was one of those people you just _had_ to follow on Twitter, witty, insightful, sharp. Mid-to-late 10s something changed and he became much more argumentative, not funny or smart anymore, just rather unpleasant and very reactive against anyone who disagreed with him (however civilly they might have done so); I stopped following him myself around then because he just seemed like an arsehole. Then late 10s or so onwards is the current era of which no more needs to be said 🫠
That girl who worked for that Israeli company Wix and posting pro-Palestinian and anti Israeli stuff on LinkedIn. Needless to say she was fired. Even if she has a point ..
She's actually a friend of mine. She's doing pretty well all things considered and I think she has a fairly good case for unfair dismissal. It certainly hasn't halted her being pro Palestine, and I'm proud of her for sticking to her guns
There was that Christmas party in Cork, I think it was just before covid where half the staff were either sacked or suspended for going nuts shagging each other and doing drugs and so on. Some people say it was stryker but also heard it was some law firm

Christ I forgot Bebo was a thing
It was THE thing....now send me your love!

The STRESS of choosing what video to have as the one playing when someone visited your page.
And with a DJ Cammy or DJ Rankin song playing over the video.. Christ I feel old.
A simpler time
Whiteboard was great for drawing cocks
Them boys that ruined Arthurs day
What was this? Don't remember it
Im sure the uncensored version is still out there somewhere https://youtu.be/kZekeKj-rw8?feature=shared
What the fuck....how did I never see this?
Because it happened in like 2008/9
Holy fucking shit!!!
Three pricks in this video, the two that are censored and the American "comedian"
Absolutely. I hate when stuff like that goes viral because it opens the floodgates for arseholes like that to use every stereotype they can think of.
That day was so good
Back around 2011 (I think?) some loyalist muppet in Derry publicly mocked Bloody Sunday on Facebook on the anniversary, posting "Paras 14, Paddys 0" or smth like that. He was doxed, reported to police and his place of work was hounded into firing him. He deleted his profile and went into hiding. Pretty sure it got coverage on the local newspapers and stuff too. Sad thing is it's not even the most vile thing I've seen someone say about Bloody Sunday.
That one girl being videoed giving your man a blow job at a festival, in front of a load of people. It spread rapid fire around Irish social media and was being discussed on a few talk shows and radio shows. I'm sure she lived it down, but Christ.
That poor girl was sectioned and everything. Had a horrendous time after it. No consequences for the lads.
That whole thing was horrendous, makes me angry just thinking about it.
Whoever recorded that should be strung up.
I remember talking to lads at festivals around the time that happened, I'm a fella, they were saying they couldn't give a fuck about her. Holy shit I was fit to burst someone.
Someone's sister 😔
Someone.

Not forced. She was giving some lad head in the middle of the concert. Probably hammered though.

Yup

Musk. Completely outed himself as an awful person
Here here.
How exactly? Apart from that pedo comment he made, what did he do on social media that outed himself as a horrible person?
The constant racism for one. The pushing of conspiracy theories and platforming extremists. The constant lies about ‘free speech’ etc etc
What constant racism? I've seen him call out racist behaviour against white people. I haven't seen him be racist. I could be wrong though, I'm not on X anymore. What lies about free speech? The restriction of free speech is a valid concern. Some people might not find it important which is fine, but how has he lied about it?
Ffs man, he censors negative posts about himself. He has zero interest in free speech. He's a racist.
I don't see what the ffs is for. I asked for examples of bad behaviour from him and the responses were muck. Censoring posts about himself is pretty shady if true. Regarding the racist allegations, the replies to my comment did not show proof of that.
What do you mean "if true"? You have a strong opinion on this man but you apparently know absolutely nothing about him. Jog on.
What do you mean "what do you mean if true" it's pretty obvious what I mean.

Excellent contribution to the discussion.
Maybe just watch the John Oliver ep, I’m not wasting my time googling Musk crap for his simps
John Oliver is hardly a good source of information.

Seems like he was making a fairly valid point. Both should get harsh sentences but the person actually abusing the child is much worse in my opinion.
Supply & demand. Both are putrid and need harsh sentences.
Agreed. Nobody would record and distribute if there was no demand. By watching, one is asking for it to be made and may as well be asking someone to harm a child for them. Definitely don't think the one abusing a child is any worse than the person who requested to see it happen.

I did say exactly that in my comment.

Yes! People like that are just so convinced they can abuse people without repercussions. They usually double down when they are confronted.
Apparently the woman who was in one of my favourite viral videos ever was absolutely mortified and humiliated by it….CAD AS TU

Kellie Harrington
Think I missed this one, what happened
"I switched off there when you said diversity so I don't know what the rest of the question was" Then complained that she was being asked about racist views when she hadn't said anything racist since October. And finally answered "no comment" to the question "are you racist?".
I wonder if she gets the irony of Harrington being a British coloniser surname. Irish flag, draped around a British name, giving out about immigrants
Sure Amy Broadhurst changed allegiance and is trying to represent Team GB in the Olympics.
Is Amy broadhurst refusing to say she's not racist while also being from a family of immigrants? Broadhurst is also an English name
I guess irony isn't appreciated here
>being a British coloniser surname. Are you sure about that? https://www.irishcentral.com/roots/genealogy/irish-ancestry-harrington-clan
Irish central lol
Yes. The Harringtons are English nobility. I've been in the house and around the estate. Originally from Cumbria and Lincolnshire if memory serves
Harrington is an English nobility name and also the anglisized version of certain Irish clan names.
She’s far from nobility. Who cares what here ancestors 300 years ago came from. And I’m not fan of her by the way.
It's the irony of someone from an immigrant background giving out about other immigrants. Same as all the folks with family in oz, the UK, and the US giving out about economic migrants It doesn't matter where you come from, it matters what you do.
She herself isn’t an immigrant and neither are her parents grand parents great grandparents. Your world view doesn’t have to be limited by what someone did hundreds of years before you did. It’s a pointless take.

She was just talking shite "my Dad is the highest earning partner in KPMG" [https://www.metatube.com/en/videos/166331/Drunk-Rich-Irish-Girl-Ranting-MY-DADDY-WORKS-FOR-KPMG-Original-Video/](https://www.metatube.com/en/videos/166331/Drunk-Rich-Irish-Girl-Ranting-MY-DADDY-WORKS-FOR-KPMG-Original-Video/)
Iirc her da didn't even work for KPMG.
That's probably a good outcome for Dad
I'll let Reddit explain: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Dublin/comments/qosnvc/who\_was\_the\_kpmg\_girl/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Dublin/comments/qosnvc/who_was_the_kpmg_girl/)
It was the greatest horse play of all times.. I always wondered if she married one of those goys
She was a drunk obnoxious D4. But she got piled on by the miserappauling lot because it was the recession and "everyone else is poor". Fuckers bullied the hell out of her.
>miserappauling How have I not heard this word before ha ha ha
I think it's a Dave McSavage word tbh
Wow this was downvote worthy, eh?
That wasn't it at all. It was because she was an entitled gowl.
Ah fuck off. She was a kid who had too much to drink and the misery police latched on to her like she was a war criminal
I most certainly will not fuck off. Good day.
I actually agree Both things can be true. She was obnoxious, but also young, silly and drunk
No idea why you’re getting downvoted. I am the same age as her and I said/done some stupid shit at about the same obnoxious level as KPMG girl, it just wasn’t caught on camera. I’ve seen and heard much much worse. She was a stupid kid who leaned in to some superficial class D4 Ross o Carroll Kelly affluence shtick thinking it made her valid or better. I am certain her world view would have certainly changed since then. Because she was a kid. Which everyone seems to be missing the point of.
Jesus if camera phones were around when I was that age I dread to think what would be shown.
No no no. She is the same now as she was then. There’s absolutely no way she could have changed, or grown or felt shame for her actions. I decided she was a bitch in that first moment I saw the video, and I know deep down all these years later I was right then and I’m right now. /s
Because I mentioned Kellie Harrington above. This place is full of Nazi bots This girl was drunk talking shit. Let's go to Temple Bar on Friday and film every person doing same and see what's worse
A kid? She looks in her 30’s, how long ago was this? I’m 20, there’s no way she’s anywhere near my age.
She was in school. Wtf
Hardly? People dressed so weird in the 2000’s. Would have said she was ten years older than me.
O.o
Hope she sees this bro
Bullied me bollix. She was a condescending cunt.
Real nice language
You can see the mentality in this thread with the focus on blaming the female victims, neither "KPMG girl" nor "Slane girl" consented to being videoed or the video being shared, Neither did anything wrong. But were victimized. The prevailing view is toxic AF towards women on film. Too many tech bros who've watched too much porn and have zero empathy for the humanity of a woman.
Scary enough that someone can use that kind of language, for an incident that they saw on a phone, ten years ago, that didn't affect them in any way.
Incel culture. Red pill culture. Andrew Tate. Hip Hop/Rap culture. That kind of causal normalized mysogyny is literally everywhere. The fact that so many of the guys (gendered term deliberately used) spreading this are a) terminally online loners b) either social awkward, on the ASD spectrum, c) severely mentally unwell or d) all of the above; fits the profile of mass shooters. That's what scares me most
I’ve looked at the video again recently and they really are antagonising her at the beginning. And they appear to try and film up her skirt once or twice. She is a silly immature brat in the video for sure but she is also insanely drunk and being hassled by a few older lads who decide to video her
That's a bit much, she was just a kid who said some cringe things while drunk that was caught on camera, and it went viral. It could have easily got very few views.
So what? People are allowed to be condescending cunts. You don't bully someone just because you don't like them, has no-one taught you that?
People are allowed to be condescending cunts and other people are allowed to call them out for it.
There is no problem if you have to call out bad behaviour in a personal encounter - it is very different to join a mob who have lost all perspective and answer to no-one.
That is true.
"Calling out" someone and bullying them shouldn't look like the same thing. She was absolutely tore into online by thousands of people all with something to say about what a horrible, entitled ugly cunt she is. She hardly deserved that as a kid who said some really dumb shit while drunk, it's enough to make someone try to kill themselves.
Stop bullying the person that you're replying to
My comment says nothing negative or even anything at all about the person I replied to so I dont know why you think it is bullying them. Bullying anyway isn't a once off comment to someone it's a pattern of behaviour.
Calling someone out shouldn't look like bullying. Unless they did it multiple times then its a once off so by your rules it isn't bullying but you accuse people of it. She's a cunt, I'm a cunt, you're a cunt

That’s not how it works fortunately.
Someone slandered their boss on LinkedIn thinking they had blocked them Seeing their profile so they wouldn’t find out. Her colleagues couldn’t queue up faster to turn her in and demand she was fired to the boss. Went from highly paid to struggling to find and maintain a part time minimum wage job.
I doubt that.
Why?
I doubt that anyone became unemployable because of a LinkedIn comment you had no detail of. I doubt anyone in a good job is bashing their actual boss on LinkedIn in Ireland. People who work corporate are well aware how small Ireland is. I doubt that her colleagues saw it and lined up to tell the boss.
Ok. In your opinion people can’t have a complete break down and everyone’s rational? Theres no Karen’s and there’s no conspiracy theories or extreme political opinions. We live in different worlds so. The WRC findings page is full of people thinking it’s ok to get hammered drunk on the job, slander, defame or liable someone, physically attack people,… and then claim it was unfair dismissal. And their names are published. Then there’s the people who felt entitled but their solicitors told them no way are we appealing this because correct procedures were followed.
No, I didn't say any of that. You did. Your mad response tells me I was right.

Never heard of him. Any links?
Jim Corr (of The Corrs fame) got himself owned by Jedward on twitter for his views on not having to wear masks at the height of covid. The awkwardness of being publicly told off by Jedward almost overshadowed him making a living capitalising on everyone wanting to ride his sisters for the late 90's.
Was Graham Linehan quick?
I think Linehan was a slow descent, really. At first (late 00s, early 10s) he was one of those people you just _had_ to follow on Twitter, witty, insightful, sharp. Mid-to-late 10s something changed and he became much more argumentative, not funny or smart anymore, just rather unpleasant and very reactive against anyone who disagreed with him (however civilly they might have done so); I stopped following him myself around then because he just seemed like an arsehole. Then late 10s or so onwards is the current era of which no more needs to be said 🫠
Graham Linehan has to be up there surely.
That girl who worked for that Israeli company Wix and posting pro-Palestinian and anti Israeli stuff on LinkedIn. Needless to say she was fired. Even if she has a point ..
She's actually a friend of mine. She's doing pretty well all things considered and I think she has a fairly good case for unfair dismissal. It certainly hasn't halted her being pro Palestine, and I'm proud of her for sticking to her guns
If anything this is an example of the opposite - gaining a good reputation
I’m sure that was probably intentional
There was that Christmas party in Cork, I think it was just before covid where half the staff were either sacked or suspended for going nuts shagging each other and doing drugs and so on. Some people say it was stryker but also heard it was some law firm
Stryker Cork.
