    Mobile phone alcopops have been around a few weeks now. Roughly the same time that shops turned back on their 99 machines

    What's that got to do with mobile phones, they weren't even invented back then.

    Could it be echo polyps? Those tumours you get from mobile phones, on your ear?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    OMFG!

    I'll have to delay all of my text message sending and phone calling for several minutes now.

    Ah, this would make much more sense.

    OP: You can't seek medical advise on Boards, go see your GP asap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,646 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    Maybe the OP meant "mobile fo' necropolitics", and blames underworld, undead democracy for why she and her bf can't find their 086 phones

    Possible word association. Google images threw this up, which is totally unrelated again. This is quickly turning into a TCN type thread.

    OP: Try joining a club? The Amish are recruiting.

    The zombies have begun to attack. Best to kill anyone you live near and store them in your freezer as soon as you can.

    In other news, I made stew today. With beef, I swear.

    Mobile Apocalypse eh?

    If it's mobile and hence apocalypizing folks on the go can we not divert it elsewhere?

    I recommend a giant tinfoil wall, shunting it off towards Iceland with their geysers and equally hot women.

    I do know that since the 7/7 attacks in London a new plan was devised (or had been devised) that in an emergency the cell networked would be locked down; and only phones with a government simcard would be permitted access to it.
