The one with brown shoes

Men of Cork.....are you there???? Do you have brown shoes???? You do??? Oh mother of Jesus. Throw them out now. Quite a number of ladies have came out of the wood work since a topic the other night regarding Corkonian women have too high standards. And one of the prevalent issues was brown shoes. Men who wear brown shoes are too grandad like and it's a major no no. What follows is a selection of comments we received.

"Vic, brown shoes on a man is like eating a fist of lemons. It just doesn't happen"

"Vic, Brown shoes on men is the most disgusting thing ever. You have more chance of getting into my pants than a bloke wearing brown shoes."

"Vic my boyfriend once came home with a pair of brown shoes. I slept in the spare bedroom until he promised to take them back. And theres nothing wrong with having a little standard, after all we are human"

"I've been listening there for the last half hour and would someone ever take these stuck up, brown shoe hating bitches outside and shoot them"

"Vic I've 1 pair of brown shoes and I normally only wear them to weddings or something formal. I've been single since the day I bought the first pair, a year ago. You don't think its connected do you?"

"Victor, any man that comes up to me looking for a jump has less of a chance if he wearing shit colored shoes"

I know in the past we've had bizarre topics on, but never before have we encountered such hatred and disgust for blokes who wear brown shoes. Personally I have a pair of tan hush puppies which I will now go off and hide!
Otherwise, I can always put in a call to the council and see can we organise a mass, legal burning of brown shoes in Pana.

The one with Derren Brown

I’m a bit late to the party with this one, but due to boredom last night when I came home, I decided to watch Derren Brown attempt to stick a load of people to sofas, without the aid of superglue, ropes or bodily fluids.

After about 5 minutes I got bored as I felt they were only milking the time for the inevitable last 5 minutes. So, I fast forwarded to the end. Well to the part where he was about to glue holes on seats. I followed the instructions, watched the 1 minute video which consisted of a white screen with circling light grey lines. Then Brown came back on screen telling me I should be stuck. Much to my amazement, I wasn’t stuck, but at the same time I found it incredibly difficult to get up. After about 10 seconds I was free and figured it was worth another go. So out with the remote again and rewind. I didn’t spend as much time watching Brown go through his spiel this time and no joy. Nothing. I was able to get up off the couch with no effort. Nothing holding me down or whatever.

Being a bit disappointed I figured it was worth one more go. So I watched all the instructions and had another go. And fuck me. Wedged to the couch. Couldn’t get up at all. It was a bizarre experience. After about 2 minutes I was able to crawl up and then all was back to normal. To be honest I was a bit sceptical about it, but when it happened  I was fuckin blown away. Unlike the people in his studio who looked so strained I thought they were trying to shit out a small ocean liner, I wasn’t completely glued to the couch, but I couldn’t get my ass more than an inch upwards.

Thankfully I didn't have to call out or more than likely yell out to the sleeping wife in case it all went horribly wrong, where I had visions of a fire crew cutting me out of a couch. There a better ways to get stuck to a couch particularly a leather one, but this was pretty impressive and not as messy.
