    Afaik you have to be a registered student. In any case the deadline for applications was last week. Anyone can apply for a job in the various campus catering outlets as well as the SU bar and SU event security.

    Duly noted. Will be firing a few cvs around so.

    After extensive experimentation, I have come to the conclusion that I am rubbish at noughts and crosses. But I am pretty alright at checkers, connect four, and dominos. And I'm okay at scrabble. Or else my opponent just sucks.

    ... I need to get a life.


    In other news. Banal - pronounced like canal, or like anal??

    Like anal! This has been well established on Facebook. I don't know why you insist on trying to find people to support your bizarre take on the English language.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,625 ✭✭✭How so Joe


    Deleting the comment string of people agreeing with me does not make your interpretation correct.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,234 ✭✭✭Thwip!


    Bah-Nal - any other pronunciation tells more about the speaker than anything else

    Bane-al, just for Bane himself. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,625 ✭✭✭How so Joe


    Can we get Palpatine banned?

    NotGill and I both agree with banquo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,625 ✭✭✭How so Joe


    Can we get MCR banned and/or de-modded? This kind of reckless mispronunciation of the word banal is an abuse of power.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,234 ✭✭✭Thwip!


    NotGill and I both agree with banquo.

    That's nice, you have company for your wrongness

    Leafy-with-love banks and the green waters of the canal
    Pouring redemption for me, that I do
    The will of God, wallow in the habitual, the banal,
    Grow with nature again as before I grew.
    The bright stick trapped, the breeze adding a third
    Party to the couple kissing on an old seat,
    And a bird gathering materials for the nest for the Word
    Eloquently new and abandoned to its delirious beat.
    O unworn world enrapture me, encapture me in a web
    Of fabulous grass and eternal voices by a beech,
    Feed the gaping need of my senses, give me ad lib
    To pray unselfconsciously with overflowing speech
    For this soul needs to be honoured with a new dress woven
    From green and blue things and arguments that cannot be proven.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,625 ✭✭✭How so Joe


    Thwip!, I think I love you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭barleybooley


    Agree with the banal/canal pronunciation. Banquo has always had beef with its correct pronunciation!

    Does banal "rhyme" with canal in the same way that bough "rhymes" with cough?

    Marge: Why don't you turn off the TV and join us for dessert. I made a pie!

    Homer: [pointing to his mouth] Put pie here.

    (Marge sighs and proceeds to shovel pie into Homer's gaping mouth.)

    Marge: Would you like some ice cream with that?

    Homer: Me not pig!
