    Its thought me to be careful what you post in after hours!

    It's not a place to ask where to go to make your pussy (cat) better

    That internet users are the same as politicians: they will NEVER publicly back down in an argument or admit to being wrong. Ever. Even when they start to feel that way.

    It's like they think the world would implode if they did.

    That if you say the skies blue, someone will furiously tell you its green.

    The sky isn't actually blue btw ;)

    It also taught me lots of nice things.

    Really, though, it's as blue as much as anything else is the colour it is.

    1. That I'm always wrong, even when I'm right. Hell, especially when I'm right.

    2. You can get red-carded by a mod for adding the words 'blast with piss' in an AH post.

    It taught me what to do if I ever find a locked safe on my property.

    that a lot of irish people still have an outdated,backwards, bandwagon mentality

    That you'd better keep any opinions that go against the grain to yourself (especially any opinions that might appear to be too charitable), or you'll be rapidly flamed out of it.

    Thought me that all Irish tradesmen are completely useless and untrustworthy , and that everyone knows an excellent tradesman called Krystoff who will work for forty euro a day.

    That if you have a radically different opinion on some contentious issue you're automatically a troll.

    its taught me that i should have been a french woman


    i'd like to hear more of this story

    That if you have a radically different opinion on some contentious issue you're automatically a troll.


    Nah, it's all to do with the way in which you express that radically different opinion. If you can't express your opinion in a thoughtful manner that indicates you are disrespectful of other posters opinions, then it should come as no surprise that they will feel under no obligation to be respectful of your opinions.


    That's not a unique Boards thing though, that's just human nature.

    That I'm not the only degenerate, deviant on boards.ie...yay :D
