Irish Blogageddon!
"It is not really self-assured or proud or impressed or impressive. It's a weird little thing. Needy, scruffy, pretending to be cool, sometimes not needing to pretend to be cool because it has moments of serious awesomeness. It runs on the energy of a few and the abuse of many, the apathy of plenty and the busyness of most. There is a recklessness to it, a constant weekend, an immaturity coupled with a bizarre wisdom. A downbeat attitude and a hopeful outlook in spite of being told that what is to come is not particularly fun."
Una Mullally (aka UnaRocks) writes about hersel... er, Dublin in Sunday's Turbine. And she says she's going to quit blogging.
We don't believe it for a second.
hersel? turbine? ....drunk?

She tells us that Dublin has 'a bizzare wisdom', but doesn't bother to tell us what that is.
I'm fed up with this type of school-newspaper waffle from her, Roisin Ingle, and Anne-Marie Hourihane.
I love light-hearted articles done well (see Miriam Lord, Frank McNally), but the three above just peddle shameless, self-obsessed, bull.
