Maybe it's Scottish not Irish.

Gomach is Gaelic for idiot/fool...at least in Cape Breton. So maybe it's some kind of variant of a similar word. Not that Gaelic ever makes any sense to me.
Interesting. My great-grandmother was from Cork and the peolple I asked about the word were on the Aran Islands so it may be a micro-regional term.

Dictionary.com says that there is a Scottish word "gomeral" which means fool.

I've seen "gomeral" in Golden Age British mystery books.

Is Riverdale being talked about in a specific thread? I've seen it mentioned but don't remember where and I've watched the first episodes

Gommel and gomeral are such great words. They have a good mouthfeel.
Sara, I wish we lived closer because I would be happy to help you part with some cookies.
We got an instant pot for our anniversary. I made steel cut oatmeal that was actually PERFECT today and now I'm making pork chili colorado which smells amazing but might be too zingy.

Askye- I think that Riverdale would go in Cable Drama? Is the CW cable? Or here.
I watched one and a half episodes after hearing it discussed by Linda Holmes and Sara D. Bunting, and in other places, and I liked it! I always seem to like things more than other people-- but I love far fewer things than other people.

CW isn't cable. It's broadcast.
