When that tractor-trailer cut me off, I had the royal sh!t scared out of me by a growing experience. Considering the load in my pants, it was more like a shrinking experience.
Yes, but far fewer people identify them as that.
Nah, Otto, she’d tear the head off Snuggles and say, “Fight the real enemy!”
Now that is funny. You work here is done.
Hey, if she paints herself blue, she could be like Zhaan on Farscape (the bald, blue, alien priestess).
Don’t know how I feel about it-still stuck on the whole “married but don’t believe in weddings” thing.
You can say a lot about Sinead, though, but LORD ain’t she a beautiful creature? Eyes like that you never see…
(anyone agree, or do I need a nap too?)
(ugh-atrocious grammar-sorry-sleep deprived!)

A goddess among the mortals, truly.
Catch Eve in her first feature length film where she plays an erudite and witty New York writer who finds that we’ve all been programmed by bad media into believing in a false reality in The Matron.
What the hell religion is she anyway? I’m guessing Roman Catholic is out.
You know, I like Sinead’s voice-she did a chilling rendition of “Foggy Dew” with the Chieftans.
But she’s mad as a hatter. BTW, did she marry? I thought she said she was a lesbian. Unless she married a woman, but I don’t think they’d let you in Ireland.
Huh.
IIRC, Sinead was a lesbian for five minutes longer than Madonna.
Well, I don’t know, I don’t keep up with her. I just remember hearing about it.
She was raised Catholic, and considers herself some strange sect of Catholicism that is more about ranting against the Pope, from what I remember. Or I could be wrong. I dunno.
After reading the OP, all I can say is - doesn’t anyone go quietly insane these days?
Where’s the fun in that?
If an egomaniacal loon like Sinead O’Connor were around me in my final days, I wouldn’t just accept death, I’d welcome it!
Add me to the crowd that doesn’t get the bashing.
Sinead is a wonderfully talented singer. She’s one of the few performers that literaly had me drop my jaw when I first saw her perform “Troy”. That woman was, and is, simply unique. Of course, with uniqueness comes criticism: those who don’t conform will get mocked sooner or later.
She has a critical attitude towards the Pope (not a bad thing, says this lapsed Catholic), arguably saved Shane McGowan’s life once, seems to have a friendly disposition, and is going to devote the rest of her life to supporting others spirtually.
I say rock on, Sinead. And yes, she does have gorgeous eyes.
Eh. So she’s tired of being a celebrity and wants to make the world a better place. More power to her, even if she is pretty strange to my point of view. Yeah, I can see the humor, but if she really wants to reinvent herself and try to become a private person, in whatever way makes sense to her, I wish her good luck with it.
Personally, I think she might be better suited to the hospice work than as an elementary-school teacher, just because her odd Catholic mysticism might be more effective with a dying adult than an 8-year-old just waiting for recess. But what do I know, anyway? I’m not a bald Irish fringe-Catholic with delusions of celebrity.
she is already a success…i have to listen to some stupid, insipid song “tears from the moon” ( on the moon?) at work once every 4 STINKING hours…would someone just end it for me already? how did she become…anything of significance?
I think many terminally ill patients would welcome the opportunity to have someone help them through the process of dying. This doesn’t seem strange to me at all. Sinead certainly has had her share of trouble dealing with the living - I can easily imagine that she would have more success dealing with the dying - they tend to be a little more pragmatic about things.
If you’re stuck in a hospital bed with tubes coming out you every which way and every shred of dignity gone, I imagine a soft beautiful face like Sinead’s coupled with her soft beautiful speaking voice would be quite a comfort.
But just because someone reportedly has talent, does that mean we shouldn’t critisize them or question their motives?
People who have been successful in the entertainment industry are very accustomed to everybody telling them how wonderful and talented they are most of the time. I’m sure a little criticism can’t hurt from time to time, especially when they do what are generally accepted as thoughtless or stupid acts.
I feel bad for her as she obviously has some issues. As someone who has worked with the dying, I would say that she would make a lousy hospice worker. If she was seriously committed to this work, she would just go off and quietly do it and wouldn’t feel the need to turn it into a tacky publicity gig for herself.
