    Sorry, I didn't realise we had anyone from the monastery doing LC! :o

    I was just teasing Slow, who I've been bumping into on Boards for a very long time (and who is definitely a girl, btw!)




    Jeez, I miss last year's cracked crew! :(

    Not going in tomorrow. It's not worth the hassle, I'd rather finish up the rest of my HW and learn a few Sraith Pics.

    I was talking to 1zred actually :P Had the exact same reply as you but you got there first :P

    Pretty unhappy with how the two weeks went overall. first week went ok but second week was horrible, taking any excuse not to study. Hope to settle into a proper rhythm for the last stretch of the year so the buckfast tastes all the sweeter this summer :) Is anyone else just going to go flat out for the oral the next 2 weeks? possible neglecting the other subjects a little bit?

    Um ... have you ever looked up the actual meaning of "schmuck"? >_>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,724 ✭✭✭mixery


    Schmuck is jewellery in German :) .

    Ah quiet you, I just haven't got around to changing it it yet, y'know I have a Leaving Cert to do! I really do hate that end part but I'm kind of attached to it too, I'll be sad to see it go.

    And Randy, I have my ideas about schmuck but they just add to the joke really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,572 ✭✭✭Canard


    I have college exams and I changed mine! :cool: Though I miss my squiggle, it was part of who I am. </3

    Yes, try Yiddish for the actual origin ... let's just say, a specific type of jewels! ;) :pac:

    Whenever I change mine I'll adopt a squiggle in its honour. Maybe.

    Hmmm: bluejay~, ~bluejay, ~bluejay~

    Kind of yes and no, I'm 18. Everyone seems to think I'm older.

    So he got that cut did he? :pac:

    What did the person say in the 9A1 thread, if someone knows PM me. I'm nosy and like to know these things, thanks.

    I was wondering the same thing!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,971 ✭✭✭✭peekachoo


    If anyone has an interest, Fall Out Boy posted the new album online today :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭Prodigious


    How is that a big deal?

    Edit: Dammit, had hopes for an epic 1000th post >.<

    As much a coincidence as it was, he was intolerant and should have known better.

    Curiosity killed the cat! :pac:

    In general ... maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I don't have much time for first post wonders who sign up to gloat about the fact that a family member of a regular poster has presumably lost their job.

    This forum has always been a nicer, more supportive place than that, and I think we'd all like to keep it that way, no?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 802 ✭✭✭Jade.


    Had an awful French class today got asked a few oral questions and couldn't string one sentence together :pac:

    Sat in silence staring at her for a very awkward silence while my head was only producing Irish words then had her big rant at me :rolleyes:

    I did not know the post was of that nature, it's sad that someone would post something like that.

    Thank you for your opinion.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn

    I know that, lad, you were just going "whut happened?", which is a very different thing; I'd probably be the same myself.

    We weren't being pedantic, we were being human ... and unless her daughter is doing her LC and frequents the forum, the answer is probably "no".

    That said, it isn't especially nice to cheer at anyone's death, and there are plenty of places on Boards where it will be discussed ad nauseam ad infinitum without needing to re-do the job here. ;)

    Google translate is no use to me it seems... :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    Lol, not sure how good it is on Latin tbh.

    ad nauseam ... to the point of nausea

    ad infinitum ... to infinity; without end

    Normally used as a combined phrase to denote something which continues endlessly until everyone is sick of it.

    See, you learn something new in the LC forum every day! :pac: :D

    I thought it was fairly obvious, it's practically in English!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭Prodigious


    Fair point.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    I thought it was fairly obvious, it's practically in English!
    So much of English has Latinate roots, either because the words were imported directly from Latin or because they came into the language indirectly through Norman-French, that we can often make a good guess at simple Latin phrases and sentences.

    The other primary source for English was the Germanic dialects of the Angles and Saxons who were the last main wave of immigration into England before the Normans (hence why you will hear the adjective "Anglo-Saxon" often applied to something or someone English).
