Medb
Medb (Old Irish spelling, [mɛðv]; Middle Irish: Meḋḃ, Meaḋḃ; early modern Irish: Meadhbh, [mɛɣv]; Modern Irish: Méabh [mʲeːv], Medbh or Maebh; sometimes Anglicised Maeve, Maev or Maive /ˈmeɪv/) is queen of Connacht in the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology. Her husband in the core stories of the cycle is Ailill mac Máta, although she had several husbands before him who were also kings of Connacht. She rules from Cruachan (now Rathcroghan, County Roscommon). She is the enemy (and former wife) of Conchobar mac Nessa, king of Ulster, and is best known for starting the Táin Bó Cúailnge ("The Cattle Raid of Cooley") to steal Ulster's prize stud bull.
Marriages and rise to power
How Medb came to power in Connacht and married Ailill is told in the tale Cath Bóinde ("The Battle of the Boyne"), also known as Ferchuitred Medba ("Medb's man-share"). Her father, Eochaid Feidlech, the High King of Ireland, married her to Conchobar mac Nessa, king of Ulster, because he had killed Conchobar's purported father, the former High King Fachtna Fáthach, in battle. She bore him a son, Glaisne, but the marriage was a bad one and she left him. Eochaid gave Conchobar another of his daughters, Eithne (or Clothru), but Medb murdered her while she was pregnant; her son Furbaide was born by posthumous caesarian section.

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
by: Matty BI remember right when I woke up the first time
My mom had told me she had set it up by lunch time
You were coming over here to play at my house
We needed a play date, I threw up in my mouth
Never thought that I'd be this fed up so soon
'Till you put your hands on all the stuff in my room
Remember how I even made a sign said, "Keep out!"
I'm gone for one minute, I come back you sneak out
Ohhh you know just how to make me crazy
Ohhh this time I'm telling you I'm telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your mom talk to my mom talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
I'm really miss how immature you are
Working half an hour to make sure I fall
Over when we have to watch TV together
I'm come in, you trip me, spill popcorn, then feathers
Ohhh you know just how to make me crazy
Ohhh this time I'm telling you I'm telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your mom talk to my mom talk to me
