Didn't know anyone from the press was looking at these things. looks like journalists have to procrastinate too. Also, getting "famous" these days is easy, all you gotta do is become an empty headed dull witted air head. Look at abi titface. Or you could go wenching on junior cert results night if you wanna be all bad and get the tabloids' attention and that of every middle aged loud mouthed wagon-train that reads them.

And on an unrelated note:
Murder all tabloid journalists. do it now. doooooo it. As soon as they stop writing about idiots that do nothing but talk about themselves the world will be a better place. The only way to make sure they stop is to send them up murder creek without a vest. Shock and appaled... er... ness (outlawed) is sure to follow. "Celebrity" writers will be the second to go especially that ginger haired, brain donor, lepreachan **** (not in a tabloid but one that sells like one) that seems to abbreviate the manner in which people are associated with others with his intolerable little "bf"'s and "vbf's" and trying to give the impression that he knows something other than the affairs of dull witted irish models and what's printed by tired hacks in magazines whose names may or may not suggest application of pressure to things at a high temperature (yup, that one, maybe). I think we need another famine, just for a few months like, it'll kill off those starved lookin folk and give the ****ers nothing to write about, thus leading them to getting fired and becoming homeless. If a few winters don't sort them out we can send in the dogs and make a reality tv show out of it and root out further journos by capturing those found writing about the proceedings. Slowly but surely we'll come to live in a society in which your eyes cannot be offended and your ears enraged by this nonsense. Violent crime will cease because nobody will be angry anymore...

Right, beginning to annoy meself and starting to verge on moaning. Night night, and remember... I'll be watching. wooooooooooooh.

Congratulations, Brian - though technically I think they have to print your name before you count as being famous.

In other news, "picturesque" and "historic" are now apparently two of our five most important qualities. And here I thought people chose universities based on the courses...

Alas not. Still, one day my name shall be in the paper. And not with the the phrase "Today in The Hague..." preceding it.

Leave Dave alone. Can't the guy enjoy his happiness at finally mastering the spelling of two new words in the English language? God Shay, sometimes you can be so cruel.

Nope, for me TCD won over DCU because it's not a characterless sterile environment. :rolleyes:

Hah, ok you're not so weird. I read that today and decided to go googling it (seemed to remember the Nostalgia bit).

Odd that they gave credit to boards.ie for the UCD spiel 'UCD students on the web (www.boards.ie)' but only had 'TCD students writing on the web.'

True. He is a BESS student, 3-syllable words are something of an achievement for us.

Like, I know! I, like, read it in one of those Ross O'Carroll-Kelly books? About those idiot D4 people who can't talk properly and use upspeak? I'm, like, so glad we don't have any of those in trinners!

Um, yeah... God, I'd hate it if there was any of that lot around... We'd have to organise a lynch mob or something.
