Rag week + school!!?? I er.. what? I was under the impression that rag week was purely a college phenomenon. Nah, it's always between Jan and Mar. What else happens? Bugger all in trinity 'cept people just botherin ya tryin to take your money. HELLO student here! My money is carefully budgeted for alcohol!! Haha

You were askin bout freshers week in another thread. Yeah it's quality. In ours I went saw some great live bands, took part in (most peeps there did) a "blind-date" like show hosted by a hilariously funny transvestite, went to many a club entirely filled with other freshers and got hypnotised into believing I was giving birth. The last was certainly very strange (me being a fella n all), especially since I thought one of my mates was the father..

tsk tsk.. :rolleyes:

After 5 minutes watchin it you woulda become accustomed/immunised to it fairly quicksmart. Everyone was throwin up all over the the shop! Ah youda been glad if you had heard the range of things we were eating... :eek:

Now I hardly expected it (quite the opposite infact) but I dinna think I've ever been approached by more members of the opposite sex than after that (soon as the ginger-beard was gone I mean ). Yis prob won't believe me but tbh I don't really care.. :cool:

What's it like being hypnotised? Do you remember anything? I've always wanted to try it but afriad I'd let something out that I want to keep in.

Sleipnir

I like how you kept your hands in your pockets as you spewed.
Very dignified.

Talkin to some of the others afterwards, some remembered, others didnt. He gives you a choice at the end, you can remember it if you want or not. I remembered it but my sense of time was seriously distorted.. I thought it was only bout 20 mins but I was under for an hour n a half!

You gotta be willing, because if yerman thinks you're not gettin hypnotised he'll send you back to your seat.. You do lose a serious amount of inhibitions but keep in mind you are always in control. ie if your told to do something that you have a BIG problem with (eg take ur top off, say some deep secret), you won't do it.. Dinna worry lassie if the hypnotist pushes the issue you'll just wake out of your reverie and refuse him point blank. He knows this so he won't.

Trinity security arn't really the type of Guys I'd feic around with. Most students/ Nearly all, go through college never having to deal with them. But it ****e starts they do their job, and do it well.

Crash

When you stay on their good side they're very nice, or if you want to put this in childrens rhymes

if you are good then they're very very good,
but if you are bad then you're ****ed.

though my sister and her friends do have a few pictures of their last week in trinity when they went around and posed with every security guard they recognised

John

Most of the security are grand but there's a couple that you should make note of when you encounter them

ApeXaviour

I was lucky I had a sound one when I was arrested on campus...

ApeXaviour

Man, that sounds so BAD... Dinna think less of me

John

I'm sure you can't have done something as bad as my mate, he was pissing on the chapel steps and wouldn't believe us that a guard was coming.

Ahah, brilliant!

But did he get handcuffs put on him (to the clear site of everyone around) and then led off to Pearse st station?

Quiet an amazing achievement getting pulled for that. I mean christ you hear rumors and myths but you never expect to meet of someone who's that unlucky.

Btw the guy on the door at the buttery kept mistaking me for a security guard.

Crash

Mates of mine got the same happening to them.

It was pretty unlucky I'll admit.. We were on one of the benches on that green between the old phys and chem buildings. Had just prepared one and a security guard jumps through the bushes and lynches us..

Hmm.. Not that I noticed mate. There are a lot of general Awwws, eeeews and backing off everytime somone spews .

If anyone's interested, that stuff we were downing in the picture was creamed rice with mushy peas, mustard and chocolate syrup stirred in..

celingfan

With regards to the Iorn stomach that was deadly craic,it was me and apex the final two people looked on with horror as we downed half bottle of vinegar not bad really coverd in my own vomit the crowd cheering at us it was glorious the the final task the cooking oil and tabasco sauce not nice i kocked it back in one then finished apex's then i chased every boby with my puke covered clothes delerious.People know me as that iorn stomach guy
I WILL BE THERE NEXT YEAR TO DEFEND THE CROWN AND A REMATCH WITH APEX.

ApeXaviour

Yes indeed, ceiling fan (dinna worry lad, i be keepin your anonymity). This crowned champ is the chap on the far right in the of whom we can only see one leg. He's bending over no doubt to pick up some more gruesome grub. I'll be right up for that challenge man! 'Slong as theres no vinegar, I dunno how you did that, it bloody destroyed me..

DeVore

omg... the Iron Stomach Competition...
Myself and Ronan McGloughlin were asked to put on a TCD rag week event. We were given the choice of a three legged race and a pantomime horse race. If you knew us you'd know we didnt run anywhere dressed up or not...

Ronan would eat gross stuff in the soc rooms and the Iron Stomach competition was born. We raised more money for charity then any other event in rag week the first time we held it. Glad to see its still going hahaha

(btw, do anyone have the picture of the year we had them snog a dead sheep's head? Utterly gross!)

DeV.

(btw, do anyone have the picture of the year we had them snog a dead sheep's head? Utterly gross!)

hrmm is it even legal to get people to do that?

ApeXaviour

I'm guessin it consentual.. I mean if you think about it, it's no worse than eatin a bit of dead sheeps leg..

Nietzschean

there is a reason we cook those dead sheeps legs........
i'm sure u could argue that duress was applied r summit if ye caught some unholy diease

ApeXaviour

Oh.. I was assuming the head was cooked.

Jeeze, imagine it wasn't... That'd be nasty

Nietzschean

ah sure nuffin big if it wuz, i was assuming it was raw , blood everywhere n all dat

celingfan

I'm not proud to say this but to win i would do a whole lot worse and apex would agree with that,I would like to be in charge of it one year I have a few narly ideas that would turn a few stomachs.To next year hopefully something a bit miore gross this year the last one was a bit too easy to be honest compared to what I'd do

ApeXaviour

Like when you at that hairy bug-infested THING you found behind the hamo couches... I dunno how u did that man, I had to mentally prepare myself for the Iron Stomach..

celingfan

if it dont kill me ,then who cares only thing really that i wont touch is seminal fluid of any kind or any excetory products for that matter nearly everything else is fair game

DeVore

The sheeps head wasnt cooked. We ended up with a draw and we said he'd give it to the one who did the most impressive snog with it.
Looking back on it, I dont think I was really a model student.

DeV.

DeVore

Oh, one year one guy SPEWED all over the dining hall door (we used to hold it on the steps up to the dining hall)... of course the head of my course chose that very next second to walk out into a screaming crowd of people while one guy tried to apologise with puking hanging from his chin.

I dont think I've ever been more happy. I hated that Prof.

DeV.

Chick

when should i expect to see all this stuff next yr? is it after christmas?

Nietzschean

umm there can be one in freshers week, and one in rag week...
