Trolls. Don’t fertilize hate. Give no oxygen to trolls.

COLUMNS, , , , ,

Take the power back and block hate followers.

I REMEMBER when I was about 14 slagging off some poor girl with my classmates. I thought how horrible what we were doing was and how glad I was it wasn’t me being bitched about. I comforted myself with the knowledge that at least she didn’t know.

I then had the sudden realisation that if we slagged this girl off behind her back and she didn’t know, perhaps others slagged me off behind my back and I didn’t know.

My heart sank. I then pondered whether, if people were going the hack on me on the quiet, I would want to know. No, I thought, I wouldn’t.

1. Just because you’re offended doesn’t mean you’re right.016 Unknown-1

2. I’ve had cancer. It’s not all bad, you get free biscuits.

3. My nana died of arse cancer and I have a high chance of contracting it. Not just because of our genetic predisposition but because I have enjoyed a lot of anal sex with uncircumsised men.

4a. I’m a comedian.

4b. I’m me.

5. More damage is caused by taking offence than giving it.

6. “It’s a comedian’s job to know where the line is and cross it”- George Carlin. So a couple of people are offended by one of my tweets? I’m offended by Packed to The Rafters and the gender balance on the ABC. You don’t see me calling the wahmbulance.

7.  Who hasn’t used colourful language to describe someone they think is Satan?

8. Who cares? It’s just words. And I do not have the power to give a person arse cancer through a tweet. Yet.

9.’I hope you get arse cancer’ is a traditional Irish greeting. “Tá súil agam go bhfaighidh tú ailse asal” is often exclaimed as a child is baptised or as a coffin is lowered into the ground.

10.  You bored, envious, petty, panty-elasticated wowsers, haters, hypocrites and prudes. No one cares except you and your sad tragic mates in the relevance deprivation cess pool. Go fuck yourselves. Love Dev xxxx
