    Seanie Fitz An Irish businessman who was awarded the "Banker of the Year" in the middle of the last decade. He was a media favourite. Now he is a media scapegoat.
    The Irish Times A property newspaper, with a news supplement.
    The Sindo A newspaper that contains a lot of tabloid type content, including the combination of Willie O'Twee and Brendan O'Connor to count as a pair of tits, and Own Arse, as er....arse.....

    Dublin, Europe's most supportive tourist destination for Peados, thanks to no electronic passport swipe in Dublin Airport. Ireland always facilitates child molestors.

    Winkle waving - Competitive posting e.g. between those who try to out-do someone else in how anti-establishment they are: e.g. poster 1 "I'd kill all FFers"; poster 2 "Traitor. I'd torture them then kill them, then kill their families, then I'd point at them and laugh"

    Bum tickling - (a) a group of posters who knowingly wink and make in-jokes at each other e.g. Poster 1 "Oh yeah, you'd know all about cats wouldn't you..." Poster 2 "LOL"... (b) a group of posters who coalesce around a single, often older, poster, and literally cyber-tickle his anal passage.

    Whumping - when someone starts a thread similar to or the same as a pre-existing thread, then the OPer of the existing thread replies to point out his thread. Toxic Avenger is particularly known for this.

    Futtocking - Using a private group to arrange a pranking on a public thread e.g. "Let's all pretend to agree with punkfilth231 on his thread and then all realise we were wrong at the same time. Tee hee"...

    Haircutting - Posters using terms like 'hey guys', 'killer apps', or other trans-atlantic nothingisms.

    Tommying - Posting on a thread to demonstrate that you know literally everything there is to know and ever will be to know on that particular subject. Such posters are particularly prone to using the emoticon.

    Brilliant (except for Tommying. I like Tommy)

    Love the Haircutting---all that American techie and casual business-speak "Year on Year" etc

    Plus slang American terms that have gained traction (there's another business Americanism) like No Brainer--a phrase totally without wit, expressiveness, resonance--- a useless, flat, Valley-girl, dumb, know-nothing insult to the English language of an expression....

    As in Pat Spllane on the LLS:

    Tubridy: Why are you retiring, Pat?
    Spillane: Ah, sure twas this Croke Park deal, Ryan. Twas a no-brainer

    Hmmm....I won't make the obvious comment, Pat....

    Have to say it, I'm very impressed at how much you've learned in the year.

    I think it was Will Yam--or at least that was the first time I saw it here. It's brilliant.
