30th August - big reunion (apparently)

PurplePainter

Ok people, ALMOST Everyone I have spoken to is going for a BIG reunion on the 30th OF AUGUST
Be there... or be... Me.. It isnt pleasant. Hehehe. Stephens Green, 12 O Clock.. Hows about it.. as for us Cork people? Whenever our train manages to drag our asses into the big city... hehe.

Who's actually going on the 30th? (besides who I know of)

:D mags :D

Me! I'm going! You know me! It's Maggie!

Crash

Sure, i'll drop in. meet all the new ones. and thoseof you who by chance happen to know me. ya know how these things work. i show up, wander round a bit, then get bored and wander off. its the circle of nevermoredom.

malecO

well, I'll be up anyway.

halenger

All relative newbies going?

Raphael

i'm only 14, do i still count as a reletave newbie.

Ps im sure as hell goin

Liquorice

I'll go, don't really have anything better to do anyway.

nosmo

I'll be there. Oh, yeas.. many a me shall be

Mystic Fibrosis

b0rk?








I should be in. Unless I buy a hamster in which case I won't ever leave my room.

Dalamar

I'll be there...other people better be aswell.

mentalimplosion

unless i get tix to lisdoonvarna, bring on the jolt and embarassing photos!;)

Mystic Fibrosis

Like I said, if you want tickets, I can get em. Wait.....damn it, that would mean I'm not going. Hrm. Well, The Frames are better than you poxy evil persons.

Peterfing

Indeed, I'm going, as oyu well know Roisie

twirly sponge

I'll go if I manage to convince my parents to let me and to pay for the bus to Cork and then the train from Cork to Dublin...and then the train back...and the bus back....damn this living a zillion miles away from Dublin

PurplePainter

Oooh we could all get the same train. how obvious and logical, yet terribly exciting. lol.

malecO

yeah it would be a lot better if we all went together (well, all the Cork people). I'm just saying this as I don't have a clue of the ways around Dublin. Would take me ages to find Stephens Green from Heuston station.

PurplePainter

Oooh oooh I have an Idea! We can tie a lead on you and drag you along so you dont get lost? I have had this done to me. It works.

So-on

Or we could get a REALLY big flag with CTYI on it, and then attach it to the top of the spikey spire thing. Then, at the foot of the spire, our lucky viewers will follow a trail of empty Jolt bottles all the way to... ST STEPHENS GREEN!!!

It's fool proof...

And yes, I sincerely hope to be going to this reunion (disregarding the livingindonegal-ness.

...

On a side note, I wonder is it possible to get a subscription to Jolt??

s0l

Get over the jolt dude, there are much better energy fixes out there.

Shoeless Ailbhe

Any more nevermores gonna be there? Or is it all newbies?

Mystic Fibrosis

/me raises walking cane

sionnach

i wouldnt mind goin but being a nevermore i'd feel like an old fogey with all you young uns around *hobbles off*

Barry Aldwell

I'll be there.

It wasn't me!

If I'm in the country I'll make it. There's always a catch.....
Dunno if I'll be there but I'll try. Not everyone's either a nevermore or a noob. I've been before and I'll be again.... Think about it.

sionnach

heres an idea, how bout we organise a flash mob at the reunion? if we have say 50 ppl at the reunion (is this too much to hope for?) we could arrange a flash mob like this one. Maybe we could all dress up as boards ninjas and all collapse at the same time ne other suggestions plz post em!

Raphael

Heres 1, dress as ninja's :ninja: and have choreographed matrix style kung-fu fights in the middle of the green

sionnach

lol yeah that would b cool, have everyone just ambling along and at some prearranged signal every1 start attacking every1 else. actually, if ne1 knows where teh eircom headquarters are (i wouldnt know, i live in mayo) we could stage a mock ninja assault.... i think these ideas would require too much planning tho. keep it simple for our first attempt

s0l

bah, Esat I say! ****ers give me a crap connection will they?!?!... heheh, i have flat rate and right now i'm on a cable modem and about to get royaly arsewise.
Suck.
My.
Balls.
*THRUST*

Hands up all those who actually have worn a ninja mask and had a large audience see it. Other than Macdara. And me. We were super disco ninjas.

It wasn't me!

Not me, but I'll try anything a few times:)

Raphael

I haven't but after the 30th of august i will have!!
Maybe we'll get thrown out of the green again

Cait

i don't seem to know very many of you people....but i might be there. yay donegal -v- armagh match on the 31st!!

oq4v3ht0u76kf2

I'll be there as long as I don't have work.


Wow, I am a self-imposed nevermore I guess. Maybe I'll come out of nevermore-ness for next year but who knows. I have my reasons.

Did that actually happen? Cos I read in the paper the other day about this mob of about 100 people who went into a shoe shop in Dublin chanting "we like cheese".

Plasticman

I'll be there, most likely. Have to have some nevermore solidarity going. And also, what else am i gonna do on a saturday? Apart from the usual hijinks, of course.

Happy CTYI guy

You mean you can come back to CTYI again?

And i am also going to the reunion.

sionnach

yes sponge it really happened and the idea was borne out of that boards thread

Zukustious

Yes YES! I'll be there, with pants this time. It'll be nice if everyone comes.

Barry Aldwell

Richard - Some guy told me on IRC to tell you that he hates you at the reunion. But I can't remember who it was. He said that he'd known you his whole life. I'll check the logs when I get home.

/me keels over from tiredness

/me picks himself up

/me listens to police scanner. what good fun.

Shoeless Ailbhe

Right, I'm bringing a sign to the reunion. It'll read as follows: Nevermores this way. We can hug eachother and leave the newbies and the semis alone. We can reminisce and stuff. We can feel sorry for ourselves, or just have fun together. Cos we all know CTYI will never be the same without us. Never.

And we all have to do that flash mob thing! Seriously, we have to. Did ya read the one with the bananas? When the instructions were to eat a banana and leave! Priceless. I say we do one, drink a bottle of Jolt each and leave.

To get more.

mentalimplosion

anyone else going to lisdoonvarna that saturday? i've figured out, we can go for an hour, then get the bus to the RDS.


oh, and myself and aine will be wearing our new silk slips.

Who are you talking about? Why does someone hate me at the reunion, and does that mean that they don't hate me in other places?

*puts hand up proudly* i did. cept i looked like a muslim bride so i'm told. ah well. such is life.
(p.s. my discojesus beats your super disco ninja. ohhh...yes)

ANYHOO....

reunion thing right, i was thinking (i say *I*, other people were thinking now i'll take credit for the idea), does anyone have a free house or whatnot saturday night that we could have a shindig in. or know of someone from ctyi who's allowed **** up their house.
or has a shed or something. anything. please.
cos much as the whole ninja thing is a great idea, i know i'd much rather a big drunken house party myself.

halenger

Drunken house party?! What age are you?!!

Anyways... I think I might actually go to this reunion. It's been a very long time since I've been to one.

Getting 50 people to a reunion was no bother back in the day. Ah I remember it well. *reminises* Anyone remember huddling under a tree in a thunderstorm in Stephen's Green? Definately Talented Youth!!! :rolleyes:

Raphael

Nah, best moment ever was when 15 or so of us were escorted from the green (ie chucked out) last year

Plasticman

That happens all the time. It's hardly a memorable experience being kicked off steven's green, the wardens are pricks. They tried to fine me 75 euro for playing guitar. I ran like hell of course, so i didn't pay, but the point is they're assholes.

qwidgybo

i think i'll be making an appearance in town on the 30th, and i'd better get lots of hugs.

i mean it!

purplepolkadot

Drunken house party?! What age are you?!!

16. *looks around innocently*. when i say drunken house party, i mean everyone else is drunk and i'm there laughing merrily. cos you can't get me drunk. oh no. liver on overdrive here.

but anyway yeah, party?? venue?? ideas??

/me looks up IRC logs

It was Ranger. He told me to tell you at the reunion that he hates/loves you.

Oisín Collins

hey everyone,

im goin to the reunion to get back to the point slightly!!

i agree wit lisa except for the drunken bit, does anyone in dublin have a free house or sound parents who wouldnt mind a 20+ invasion??

somebody for the love of CTYI offer your house to us

C u all there

Peterfing

Nobody offered us a house, damn them all.
Oh well, so, who enjoyed the reunion. It beat the pants of the Cork one I'm sorry to say, well, most of it, and are there any takers for another one sometime soon. I've heard suggestions of the midterm break? Either that or Christmas.
But anyway, did everyone have fun at the Dublin reunion and did anything particularly amazing happen that everyone should know about?
