    Just heard that one of the building sites on campus think they've hit oil! Can you imagine? Brady must be grinning from ear to ear, the place will be worth millions.

    Yeah and the fact you posted it after mid day makes it even worse.

    An ill thought-out joke. UCD was excavated in the 70s to put in those tunnels everyone is always banging on about. In addition, people haven't "struck oil" in the sense of coming across it accidentally since the 1800s. Sorry to wreck your buzz, but try harder next year!

    We are afraid. Very afraid. And that's just the shopping centre

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Yep, I accept it was a bad one, what can you expect from a girl who gets her ideas from Saved By The Bell? *hangs head in shame*

    April fools jokes are no longer valid after midday which means your just a down right liar ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,755 ✭✭✭elmyra


    What? I didn't know that, genuinely! Aw damn, I'm so blonde!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada

    I didn't know that either, tbh.

    Kinda makes April Fool's Day a bit of a misnomer if you ask me, it should be more accurate to call it April Fool's 12 hours...:rolleyes:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,391 ✭✭✭arbeitsscheuer


    Ah yes, the old "lull them into a false sense of security and then drown them in spittle" approach... Delightful. I must make note of that: Napkins to be provided for all new boardsies 2 days after meeting boneless, so as to avoid... legal problems...

    anyone else reminded of that Saved By the Bell episode where they found oil and imagined what it would be like?
    A very poignant story..with some dead duck in it.
