Pic: This is awkward but the Christmas lights in Tallaght look a lot like a penis

We're wondering how long they've been up.

We’re wondering how long they’ve been up.

The Christmas lights are up in almost every town in the country now and there’s a lovely festive feel around the place.

Lights come in all different shapes and sizes so there’s a good chance if you want something specific, you’ll find it.

We’re not sure what the festive organisers had in mind when they erected these lights because all we can see is the male reproductive organ.

Tallaght lights

We spotted the picture on Dublin band Leaders of Men’s Facebook page and here’s what they had to say about it.

“Nobody does Xmas lights like the people of our hometown in Tallaght. Apparently this picture was taken on the Cookstown road yesterday. Yes!”

Turns out the image has been circulating online for some time but one thing we can confirm is that whoever was responsible for spreading Christmas cheer made a complete balls of it.

UPDATE: Monday, December 1 at 11am.

It turns out those penis-shaped lights are not up in Tallaght but in some other (unknown) location.
