If you only knew......but this isn't the place for my story.
@BeleagueredCath Waters mentioned later he had been the one who told McGarry about an upcoming vacancy for religious affairs correspondent in the paper.

When John Waters resigned from The Irish Times over Patsy McGarry and his anonymous twittering, Sean O'Rourke made very light of it all his RTE show.
"Are you not taking this far too seriously?"
What ever became of O'Rourke anyway?
@petiteJeanine@MysticM76079218@AnnBrunton@minnyshell I suppose I'd have a blind spot for that, I'd hate to think it was that bad. Still, wouldn't boys in the past be quicker to get down beside the tracks and lift her up?
@NannyMcCairn @minnyshell I think people have always been the same, human nature is a constant but clearly a generation is coming up like nothing we have seen before. Not least is the screen time and access to porn from childhood, what deep and profound rewiring is happening?
@veggieClare78@petiteJeanine@MysticM76079218@AnnBrunton@minnyshell My God but you're older than you look. Even watching reruns of Who Wants to be a Millionaire? from 20 years ago you can see how people have changed. In another 20, thanks to tech., they won't have any memory at all.
@petiteJeanine@MysticM76079218@AnnBrunton@minnyshell The very same argument is used to tell me to stop living in the past, this is the 21st century etc, I think we all know that people may not change but behavior and attitudes do.
To recap - the boys here behaved disgracefully.
@Get_up_Laura@minnyshell I couldn't agree more, but I'm thoroughly fed up with the negative portrayal of the contribution of men. The only TV ads to show competent men are for beer and shaving.
Asian and black men are getting a free pass - for now.
@peachypuk Imagine if the worm really does turn on this, I guess truth will out, it always does.
Then imagine all the people who won't have photos like this, they'll have to hide their faces.
