    Sometime, he should try to not refer to himself in the 3rd person :pac:

    I just googled 'circle jerk' coz I didn't know what it meant.
    I'm sorry I did now :(

    This is actually a subtle social experiment on the part of Pighead to see if he can introduce a new noun into the modern lexicon of a "seamus", in much the same way that we use "google" as a verb meaning "to do a web search".

    60 posts in and people are already freely using the word as if it were always there.

    I don't know if I'm flattered, or horrifically embarrssed because I fall so painfully short of the intended meaning of this new noun.

    Can be used as a verb as well eg I thought today's exam was going to be tough but I absolutely seamused it.

    Gummy me old buddy. No need to be an old bitter balls. Pighead is just expressing his admiration for probably the greatest living man in the world. Fawning, creepy, stalkerish and uncomfortable it may be but it's all strictly above the belt and absolutely non-jerkish.

    1. Not a favourite poster but I do like some posters more than others of course. Seamus has a scaaary ability to write exactly whats in my head for example. Its freaky.

    Definitely more than a passing resemblence there. ;)

    Don't be silly, you deserve it. You're terrible at hiding your power level

    Mind. Blown. DeVore is Pighead. It all makes sense now.

    Not surprised in the slightest. Pighead would wager that seamus is the most respected, revered and well hung member on boards. There's bound to be tonnes of posts singing the mans praises.

    Pink Floyd had a song about a dog called seamus. Could it be? Was your dog the inspiration?
    Naaa, chronology is all wrong. Forget I said anything.

    In fairness she found it hard dealing with people who had different opinions to her, so it was probably for the best.

    No, she found it difficult dealing with stupidity and bigotry. Its different.

    If Seamus was so trustworthy he'd tell you to stop referring to yourself in the third person

    Before you judge Pighead you should walk a mile in his shoes. By the time you've walked that mile, Pighead will have entered your house and stolen all of your worldly possessions and you'll be too far away to do anything about it.

    Moral of the story: Never leave your home unlocked.

    Everybody has a seamus. That person whose opinion you trust 100%. The person who you'd nominate as your phone a friend if you ever went on 'Who wants to be a milionaire'. Your own personal Yoda.

    When Pighead first started posting here his first opinion of the place was that it was populated by nerdlingers with awful opinions and awful clothes. But after a while he began to notice a diamond in the rough. A diamond that went by the name of seamus. seamus with a small s.

    His posts were frequent but unusually the quantity was matched by the quality. He was right about everything. His opinions were forthright but generally bang on the money. He was like the boards version of James Bond. Men wanted to be him, women wanted to be with him.

    Whenever there's a thorny subject brought up in After Hours that splits opinion, Pighead waits until seamus posts and then follows his opinion safe in the knowledge it is the right one.

    Pighead has had thee dogs since he started posting on boards and he's called them all seamus. His first born will also be called seamus(boy or girl) and probably his second one too.

    If seamus is reading this, Pighead prays that he takes the following in the right spirit. (ie it's a sign of admiration rather than obsession)

    Sometimes Pighead parts his hair to the side (always imagined seamus had a cool side parting, left to right) wears cool chino's and smart trainers and pretends that he's the great man himself all whilst sing singing the Billy Joel classic 'Well I'm seamus, seamus as a man can be, you can make a total fool of me, I just wanted you to know'.

    So who is your seamus?


    Ah now hold on ye werent always that close found this old video you posted a while back




  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,944 ✭✭✭✭4zn76tysfajdxp


    KeithAFC was my seamus but only when I called him james.


  • Registered Users Posts: 309 ✭✭keithb93


    I have a seamus in real life, his name is actually seamus!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    Epic thread.

    As Tubs himself would say, "I think the country needs to hear read threads like this at the moment.

    I'd prefer if Seamus would spell his name with a capital 'S' though.
    And Seamus when you one day close you're account, you will be remembered for weeks in the Legends of the Boards forum.....as a Legend:)

    The Pighead too:)
