The other financial gap

Why does this spoof on the Onion remind me so much of David McWilliams "Generation Game". I'm not as financially comfortable as I'd like to be (I'd like a Euromillions win this weekend if it can be arranged, thanks) but I don't think that Mr McWilliams quite thought out all of his argument.

RTE seems to be hell-bent on making us nervous as opposed to shaking us from our complacency. How about going through possible fixes so the public can lobby for them (without the need to post nappies please).

Its a guy geek thing, you've given us the problem, now how about helping us find the solution?

She verbed his adjective adjective noun
He verbed adverbially
She verbed back
Then they verbed adverbially like simile

I remember a brilliant clip like this on the first Comic Relief. Please let me know that there is a clip of this somewhere...

What brings it to mind is this Romantic Writing competition on RTE radio (yeah, its Pat Kenny, that's why you didn't hear about it) in conjunction with Harlequin Mills and Boon (when did they combine?).

Given Twenty's entry in to the book world I think I might be able to squeeze a short story out of me.
Sometimes I can't resist a good verb.
