Interview with Macdara Butler: the chocolate man!!
Commonly known as Big Mac (As in the burger), took time out from doing nothing lately to do this interview.
Onthewing: Macdara, thanks for takin the time out. I’ll start the ball rolling by asking you about what you do for a living?
Macdara: I recently finished in Uni, how bad, that stands for University where I studied business and french with economics and finance in Limerick, I’m aiming to be the next Michael O’Leary but without the same money, then I went around Europe on the choo choo (train). TGV in France was brill. How bad. France is the coolest place ever and I’ll live there some day with my friend Antoinin. I really, really like Antoinin but not in a GAY kinda way, just like him in a French way. At the moment I’m waiting for employers to contact me. It’s funny, no one rang me yet. Network must be down cause the birds aren’t getting through either.
Onthewing: What’s the most important thing in your life at the minute?
Macdara: Chocolate. How bad. I really like Nestle and Cadbury’s but give me Butlers Dark Chocolate and I’ll have your babies. I’ve never seen anything like the big bars in Heathrow airport, sure I had the dreams but this was in real life. Ya, chocolate and me were just meant to be. How bad
Onthewing: Since this interview is for the Drom/Inch web site, what was your best hurling moment so far in your career?
Macdara: Played really well in county trainin one day, took Paul Curran to the cleaners. How bad. That was very special. It made me realise how good I am.
Onthewing: I thought he had a cast on his arm that day??
Macdara: I suppose he had a double compound fracture in his arm and two dislocated fingers, but how bad, I still cleaned the great Paul Curran.
Onthewing: Are you much of a socialiser?
Macdara: Ya, I’m a party animal. How bad. Off the record though, I don’t ever get drunk. This is a stupid country with too many drunks. In France, they know how to conduct themselves. Now there’s a country of true substance. Ok you’d want to watch out for the lads tryin to lure you into a false sense of friendliness, if you know what I mean, but how bad. As they say when in France ……L’amour est belle. How bad.
Towards the end of the night I order Heineken shandy’s. How bad. Gives me an edge. The boys do the donkey work with the ladies then I swoop in for the kill with my charm and sophistication, qualities that girls admire. How bad..
Onthewing: Rumour has it, you only like girls that are barely there.
Macdara: That’s not true, if she’s loaded that would do. How bad. There are 5 things I look for, in women. Skinny figure, hobbies and interests, previous experience, education and achievements, their c.v. like. I’d really appreciate it if girls in Ireland went out with their CV’s with them and a copy of their bank balance …. Is that too much to ask? Others on our team like those slutty types. I’m a lot deeper. How bad is suppose
Onthewing: The winter is approaching, how are you keeping fit over this period?
Macdara: Well I like going on long walks with my poodle, and staring into space … thinking of what Is life ….. and continuum …. La la la la la la la
Onthewing: Are you not doing any sprints?
Macdara: Sometimes. At about 9.50 just before the shop closes and I’ve no chocolate for the night I’d sprint down to the shop to stock up. You know it only takes me 3min 56 seconds to get to the shop and it’s a mile away …. I can move when I really want to.
Onthewing: What is the Hi Mac manoeuvre??
Macdara: There is a patent coming on this, so I have to be careful. I don’t like to boast or anything but it’s my original manoeuvre, and it is very original! But when you’re with a bird you don’t really like… how bad…it happens…Great stuff. Its great. How bad. Bad enough I suppose, like I did it a few times with Big hairy women who actually used my Mach 3 blades in the morning….. these are the types of women that love the Hi Mac manoeuvre.
Onthewing: Ok Macdara, nice to find out these things, best of luck with the year ahead, I’m sure you’ll be getting a call for a job soon from a big French chocolate company any time now,
so as they say on the continent.. Au Revoir!
