It's PanDENmonium! [Off Topic Chat]

I found a news story about me from 2004 about a community games Tennis match, I was playing mixed double and the ref was laughing at us cause we were so bad. In the end she asked the other team if they could try and hit the ball to us a bit slower so we might be able to hit it back.

In the paper it began with "Others to impress" I laughed a lot at that!

Today I had a steak sandwich for lunch. It was riveting!

I'd love a steak sandwich right about now...

Atavan-Halen · 17-09-2011 2:41am

This one was amazing. It had onions, mushrooms, steak and bread! And chips and pepper sauce.

Reminds me of the best steak sandwich I ever had. It was in the hotel/bar/restaurant at the edge of the bridge to Achill Island. We'd driven from Galway, after a bus from Limerick, and the hunger was mighty upon us! Good times...

Atavan-Halen · 17-09-2011 2:59am

Oh steak sandwiches, how we

thee.

We made awesome tacos for dinner tonight. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmms.

Raid the freezer! There's usually something edible hidden at the back.

But I'd have to cook it. And go in search for stuff. Tbh I'm just too lazy to do a full food hunt. I should just go to bed...

I'm back in the sticks. The nearest shop is almost a 10 minute drive, the nearest 24 hour is a Topaz about 20 minutes away. Also, Topaz lock down their Pringles at night along with their alcohol. Not impressed*.

*Neither are they when I insist they unleash the Pringles, but how and ever...

Atavan-Halen · 17-09-2011 3:19am

What?! That's torturous! Demand those pringles! You deserve those pringles!

I know, right?! Well see the first time I realised, I tried to get them out myself by trying to raise that shutters thing they pull down over the alcohol section. You're apparently not supposed to do this. So I looked like a desperate alco who bought copious amounts of Pringles to hide the fact that it was really the alcohol I wanted.

I'm not sure what they think of me now, but for gods sake people, hide the most essential night time snack AFTER 10PM?! Madness. Also they're over €3 in Topaz. Worth it, but preposterous!

Atavan-Halen · 17-09-2011 3:25am

Good god woman! I cannot stand for that! Boycott topaz until they lower pringles prices and allow after hours sales!

QueenOfLeon · 17-09-2011 3:29am

I like your spirit! We should organise a rally! LET THE PRINGLES OUT OF THEIR CAGES!

QueenOfLeon · 18-09-2011 12:52am

Den of Iniquity? Sounds a bit mass-like for some reason.

Aye, that sounds right. Phelan Conan supply them to most (all?) of the colleges.

Not unless you want to look like a total eejit.

I woke up at 7.15 and managed to make the 7.30 dart. I'm not sure if this is a yaaahh or an arrggghhh.

Although I didn't have time for muh breakfast so here's hoping i don't pass out in my first practical class.

I'd regard wearing a robe as looking like a total eejit but maybe thats just me. It came up in conversation last night and I was shocked at the idea I'd have to pay for such a useless piece of clothing.

Doublechinlolz · 20-09-2011 7:23pm

New two and a half men tonight... not sure whether this is good or bad

One person wearing an academic robe in the middle of 300 in civvies looks like a right eejit.

As with so much else in the world (and, indeed, on Boards) it boils down to context, context, context!!

I suggest you Lock aaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhhhh and y+a^30+h^5 for a while. Also rename this thread "Post here or your nan will murder you in your sleep". I'd say you'll get thousands of posts here in no time.

I've just discovered how surprisingly nice Aldi food is - I'm saving over a 1/3 on my weekly shopping, with little to no compromise on food quality - why do people bother with Tesco or Dunnes?

Of course it starts looking less like a saving when you use the money that you saved to buy Milka chocolate and 99c cookies

Aldi Rathmines.

Always the problem when I shop at Aldi too, you end up making the difference buying crap

So good though, great prices too.

Jamie Starr · 28-09-2011 9:33am

I can do a week's shopping, and get some other trinkets and doohickies here in Amsterdam for under €20, all thanks to LIDL.

We'll have a new housemate next week. I dont know if this is yaah or arggh yet.

RolandIRL · 28-09-2011 11:57pm

I wish i had some new housemates. Some of them are just pure pricks, lazy and bitchy. I suppose there's always going to be conflict with 7 of us in the house.

Did you find him or did the landlord sort it out?

The landlord. We all know each other, so he'll be the stranger in the house.
