Agreed.

Do you what annoyed me recently? I went to cheer on the man doing a Tough Mudder at the weekend, (12 mile run with mad obstacles along the way) and at one of the obstacles, a guy was doing commentary and was making jokes about a ginger chap. I couldn't see where the commentating man was otherwise I would have had a word, it was just nasty.

That's just some idiot who never grew up!

I used to get hassled at school for wearing glasses, having curly hair, being a 'swot', etc. Some bullies grow out of it, others stay that way. Sad but true.

I've always been picked on. It's just not nice! I really try not to let it bother me.

I have to say I got quite a bit of racist abuse being Irish when I lived in the UK. Got a tirade of verbal abuse in a pub in chester from a complete stranger. She thought I sounded northern and when I said I'm Irish she launched into abuse calling me a terrorist and to fuck off back to my own country.

It really upset me at the time but to be honest I feel really sorry for her and her sad little world.

In a nutshell don't let the bastards grind you down. They live in a very sad mind space.

when i was young enough to know no better, my grandfather used to tell me that our Irish surname was actually Scottish, such was the disdain towards the Irish by some.

my name has always stood me in good stead when i've visited the Republic though.

I never knew there were lots of Yeti's in Ireland.

    • Ah, that is interesting and ruins my theory a bit!!   I think my point just about holds though, and coming full circle on this discussion, being a sizable band such as Muse and not being able to sell out two O2 dates very quickly or at all doesn’t fill me with confidence that they be able to do a decent job selling a stadium tour…although maybe if Muse do something about their pricing, maybe they can!
    • I’ve said it elsewhere too but Emily Eavis said a 2028 headliner was booked, to me that’s only going to be someone the size of Oasis or Taylor Swift
    • Christ didn't even see that! 
    • It does feel very bland. It would certainly spell another year (my third, I think) away from Pyramid headliners for me. That doesn't mean they aren't worthy, though. I don't follow what any of them are up to, as it isn't my thing. Good luck to them.   You would think coming off a fallow year, they would want one big hitter. 'Big hitter' is obviously open to debate, but that was/is Madonna. Let's have it right. The eggs have gone in that basket, and it seems (as far the rumours go) that it's blown up. So now you're left with another plan B/replacement headliner.   I'm still of the opinion that Oasis will do it, before the Oasis thing is all said and done. Probably 2028, if they can come to an agreement. It may transpire that 2027 is bland (or at least to some of us), and 2028 is a bit... wild.   Again, though, none of us categorically know ANY of the headliners, as it stands.
