Local man really letting himself go over Christmas

Local man Jimmy Jammers is really letting himself go this Christmas and doesn’t care who knows.

“I spend all year at the gym on those fucking machines, drinking kale smoothies and sculpting my guns, but enough is enough. I’m getting in touch with my inner fat bastard.”

Armed with nothing but a fully stocked fridge & cupboard and a copy of the RTE Guide, Jammers is not planning to leave his armchair until he’s eaten everything in the house.

“I’ve everything I need – biscuits, chocolates, trifle, pudding, taytos and beer. That’s all the main food groups covered. Chuck in a few plates of turkey and spuds swimming in gravy and we’re cookin’ with gas.”

Jammers, who has commandeered his family sitting room for the duration, complete with duvet, pillows and buckets for his various ablutions, is unconcerned by the lack of support from his wife and children.

“They’re pissed at me, but only because they didn’t think of it first,” said Jammers as he polished off a sprout, Ferrero Rocher and stuffing sandwich washed down a bottle of Baileys. “They just need to keep the food coming and they can have the room when I’m back to work. They might want to open the windows first.”

Local man won’t stop re-enacting Die Hard every Christmas

Die Hard featured Bruce Willis as John McClane, crawling around Nakatomi Towers to save his wife, and other hostages, from the evil clutches of Alan Rickman’s terrorist Hans Gruber.

And one local man just can’t stop recreating the film’s iconic scenes, much to the detriment of his family Christmas celebrations.

Government advises Christmas Dinner be served on three plates, bans gravy

Christmas dinner components should be served on separate plates to reduce Covid transmission risks, An Tanaiste has announced.

“Christmas dinner has three main components,” said Leo Varadkar. “The meat, the spuds and the veggies. We’re advising that families provide guests with a separate disenfected plate for each element. Covid could be lurking in the sprouts or the stuffing. We can’t be too safe.”

Local Man’s Tinsel Obsession out of control

A local man has pretty much ruined Christmas after his tinsel obsession escalated out of control.

   Nick O’Feen was devastated after his wife and children decamped to a local hotel after his ‘big surprise’ of covering the entire house in red and green tinsel backfired.

    “I just fucking love tinsel,” said O’Feen, “the array of glamorous colours, that wonderful staticky feeling that brightens up the greyest day. And you can get a shitload of it in Dealz for a euro.”

Varadkar offering novelty socks to the homeless for Christmas

An Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has demonstrated the softer, kinder side of Fine Gael by pledging to hand deliver a pair of novelty socks to all the nation’s homeless for Christmas.

    “This time of year is for family and friends,” said Varadkar, “but we need also to remember those left with nothing, often through circumstances out of their control.”

     Varadkar, who sported a pair of Rudolph socks with flashing red nose as he made the announcement, said that the homeless could choose between cheery Santa or snowman designs.
