    If that is what i think it is then i'm gonna spend the whole night at it. I think it's 90's music, baloons and fruit punch. Don't make jokes about dancing with kids or sick stuff you know what I mean.

    see kids disco dosnt have that kind of conotations for me. "the wezz" with everyone vomiting all around me sounds more like a kids disco. but then i suppose thats the whole of trinity ball just people have more clothes on.

    your type of kids disco sounds more fun though, and there'd have to be a clown or a barney impersonater, who would gee hugged and kicked respectively. and there'd be streams and popcorn mashed into the ground oh and spot prizes and musical statues and ......

    Wesley. In Wesley College. Friday's was for up to 15 year olds, and Saturday's was 'Old Wesley' where everyone was 16 and went in to get hammered.

    I'd go further into detail on the first one, but Ian is the real expert on 15 year olds.

    Hmm, full time sabbats taking part-time jobs on the side......

    You just get worse and worse McCormack. Have some fun you sap!

    I was actually joking, but on your point I know of several sabbats around the country who do take PT jobs on the side.

    But then again other SU's close up at 6pm, so meh.

    And I was joking too ;). Something tells me you wouldn't be preparing for a Board meeting from 10pm-5am on Friday night. With those wages I wouldn't exactly kick up a fuss if you took the odd nixer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,198 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    I would. not for any real reason of course, just to be a pain in the ass.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,110 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    What do Marshalls do anyway (apart from being the proverbial pain in the arse)?

    Have you driven by there recently? Holy ****. The girls wear absolutely tiny skirts and no panties. Shocking!! :eek: :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,198 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    I remember a few years ago being at a party in anglesea rd. where a few guys did a walkby egging - got some of the girls in the back of the knees. I'd say there was egg where no egg should be after the splash up :p

    back on topic - marshalls are mainly just there to stop people going outside of the barriers and all that.

    oh actually, friend of a friend is working as barman at the ball. said friend is trying to get a job doing it as well - that'd be fun :D

    It's apparently called 'bushing'.

    I'm always surprised that anyone lets their teenage daughters go to Wesley, given that the tabloids run the 'den of sinning' stories every 4 months or so.

    I think i prefer Bartronilic's definition of what Kids Disco is. The ball needs balloons.

    Hmm. See, when you include the accommodation and phone on top of the €261 a week, it isn't too bad. Ok, granted, if I could claim overtime I'd be seriously raking it in, but I'm hardly struggling to live during the year.

    It does seem to be called bushing, the practise of pubescent girls where they remove their underwear for various olympiad activities throughout the night.

    There was also a very amusing tale from a childrens hospital where a girl came in with a black eye. The regaled the staff on at the night concerning her episode of snowballing, gone wrong.

    snowballing (apparently) is when fellatio is performed on a strapping young man by a charming young lady in the ****e/piss stinking jacks of an establishment. the girl does not swallow, but kisses her beau as the conjointly share the pleasure of his ejaculation.

    This time however, she was mid snowball then encountered another fine gentleman who did not have the opportunity to converse with the lady (as he would clearly have discovered she hadn't the arses chance of talking with a mouth full of cum!), but instead just got stuck in. He then tasted the vintage flavour of another mans cum an promptly gave her a belt across the face in gratitude!

    Classy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,461 ✭✭✭DrIndy


    Very - and it occurs at "De Wezz"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John


    See how one bad idea snowballs into a catastrophe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,110 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    How did he know what man cum tastes like? (Innocent enquiry...)

    *edit: damn American spelling!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,579 ✭✭✭Pet


    Or felching, which is even more of a catasstrophe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭Kwekubo


    Wezz = Brothel. Nuff said.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,579 ✭✭✭Pet


    Hear that, Indy? Plenty of underagers to choose from, and they're all easy too!

    I'd say it's one of those things that you'd just know by the texture, the smell and the reputed salty flavour.

    To raise the tone of the conversation slightly :p :

    Well, they kinda are, I'm presuming that Old Wesley was originally founded as a rugby club for the old boys of Wesley College, similar to Old Belvedere, and Old Crescent at home .... but Wesley College is in Ballinteer, and Old Wesley's in Donnybrook. Having seen the kids going in to the 'Wezz', I can't believe how they manage to get away with even owning some of the clothes these girls wear!At fourteen, my mother still saw everything I owned before it was bought ... so there was only so much freedom in getting ready at somebody else's house.

    Obviously, my childhood was far more sheltered :rolleyes:

    6-9pm room checkers. They get €30 but I'd say theres a few lads pocketing a backhanders. :) Was wondering if u can do this and then go to the ball?

    I'd say the 6-6 would be a bit of craic if ur broke, get to see a free concert.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,110 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    I am broke and I am doing the 6 - 6 (missing out on study time!!!) :D I see it as getting a €190 package... €120 from the job and €70 worth of free admission!

    On the notice for the 6 - 9 jobs they did explicitly state that you can't go to the ball afterwards (since they give you your money when you leave Trinity ;) ) Then again... does no really mean no?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 222 ✭✭Black_Couch


    Is there a fine for sneaking in? I thought I saw somebody say €200 on this forum? I've heard there are so many ways. Tipping off one of the room searchers is obviously one way but doubt it would work.

    The year i lived in campus the room searchers moved in a pack.

    I don't know if a fine could be enforced, if the interloper were a trinity student they could be sent to the JD and then fined/disciplined, but a 'civilian' would probably just be escorted off the grounds.

    There are probably ways to sneak in, but the College security types have been doing their jobs for a loooooong time now, and the clearing out of the college is one of the most efficient things i've ever seen Trinity manage to do. They can't get exam timetables out in time to give us reasonable notice, but a 42 acre campus can be put on a lockdown and cleared in a matter of hours.
