It’s the return of our ever-popular feature Search of the Week, and this week I notice several frankly obscene search terms for Gail Walker. Either somebody really doesn’t like the Belfast Telegraph’s star columnist, or somebody really likes her in ways I don’t want to contemplate. On a more pleasant note, Pingu remains extremely popular.
We do have a few crackers this week. I see we get shirtlifters lyrics, which puzzles me slightly, and Phoenix Nights Combat 18 – that would be the episode with Tim Healy’s racist folk band, yes? Also we have God’s little helper – take a bow, Jim – Donegal lapdancing video, Dome of Delight, and intriguingly, Marcus Brigstocke comedian Jews. Oh, and from aficionados of the Irish left, Jeff Dudgeon BICO and our old friend Kevin Wingfield SWP. Now to the podium:
In third place, Johann Hari Adrian Mole. It’s a bit cruel, but irresistible.
In second, boys wearing snorkel parka. Takes you back to the heyday of Militant.
And our best search this week is middle class lefties + hatred of. That’s putting it a bit strong, don’t you think?

Why pingu, and where on earth do you get those photographs?

Quite a while back I used an image of Pingu to give a sense of existential bleakness… and browsing Google Images is a treasure trove.
