I got boards.ie banned from the net kiosk in Tallaght Hospital. :(

    I was sitting in Tallaght hospital yesterday and started to get very bored around the three-hour mark of sitting in the A&E. In case you’re wondering why I was in. I think I broke my arm the day before in rugby match and I wanted to get it checked out. So I was counting the hours go by and I started to realise that when I was looked at by the Triage nurse I should have kicked and screamed and then collapsed on her floor and then they may have then considered me a priority case.

    So there I am in the A&E looking at the various people and trying to guess what’s wrong with them. This only lasts so long and I needed something else to do with me time. So I look around and low and behold there is one of those Internet kiosk. Brilliant I thought to myself as I got a message earlier to check my email ASAP. I put in a pound, which gets me ten minutes. I considered that to be too high a price (I get free time in net house tongue.gif) but I really needed something to do and I was sure the humour section of boards.ie would cheer me up.

    I put in a pound and get logged on. I check me email and send one off. Grand that leaves me with five minutes. I try to log onto Planetarion but the fúcking thing tells me that Planetarion login page contains adult content and is not suitable for viewing in public. Who are these people?

    I realise my time is running out so I put in another pound. I go onto boards and look at some of the various boards that interest me. I then go onto the humour board. Just what I need a few jokes. I read one or two and then see one called sex. Not thinking I click on it. Bang it kicks me out of boards.ie and tells me the site is not appropriate for viewing in public. De Vore you dirty bástard, your dirty site can’t be viewed in public because of it’s adult content. Thinking to myself this must be some sort of joke I try getting in again. No joy. I try Planetarion Login again but the graphic violence involved in that game is not suitable for hospitals.

    I have four minutes left. I can’t check boards, I can’t check planetarion what can I do? OK quake.ie that will tie me over. I go into quake.ie and seem to be getting on grand until I stumble across the word gay. Boom cya later I’m locked out of this as well. I try look at Darwin Awards and I Love Bacon but there too perverted for public viewing as well. Oh what a world, what world.

    I’m left with three minutes and a kiosk that thinks I’m a porn loving ******* what do I do? I sent an email to some random punter who I should have emailed two weeks ago. Now look what the stupid thing has got me into.

    My attempt to kill time ended up in just píssing me off some more. I waited there another hour asked how much longer it takes to get an arm checked out got passed off with the answer of “we can’t say” and the rudeness of the staff in that place and left.

    So if your in tallaght hospital A&E and you can’t check the sites you want you know who to blame.

    So I’m left wondering. Am I a perverted bástard like the kiosk thinks and is my arm broken? I’ll leave it to you.

    well umm..
    on Thursday when I was in tallaght hospital
    I was waiting..
    abut 20-30 mins
    and then when they call you in just to get a few Q&A off you, ie. what the problem is
    I just collapsed on the floor and saying
    "I can't breathe"
    "It hurt's, my stomach it hurt's"
    and next thing I know I'm on a bed and within five minute's there is about 3/4 doctor's/nurses looking at me smile.gif

    as some of you know, i used to go out with a nurse. she says that if you want to get seen quickly, just say that you have a pain in your spine/neck area and you will be pout to the top of the list smile.gif
