This is so punny!

As you all know, Saint Patrick walked barefoot as an act of contrition, which made his feet rugged and blistered. He ate an ascetic’s diet, which made him weak and additionally gave him bad breath.

All of this made him a super-calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

"John Barnes moved closer to the axe after Celtic suffered their biggest humiliation in their 112-year history." As first lines go, the Sun's report of Inverness Caledonian Thistle's 3-1 win in the Scottish Cup at Parkhead in 2000 is powerful enough (even if it does ignore the 5-1 shellacking Celtic suffered at the hands of Neuchatel Xamax in 1991). But of course it is the lovely picture of Paul Sheerin jigging around that everybody rememb … oh alright, it's the headline: SUPER CALEY GO BALLISTIC, CELTIC ARE ATROCIOUS.
