    Want privacy? Get a room. Preferably off-campus.

    for someone called b.ie curious, that comment was painfully conservative and boring. i bet your sex life is great

    I recommend the Lloyd Institute. Go down to the basement and get it on in LB8. There does be nobody there when there are no lectures on. And it's really quiet too!

    Actually the best place would be to go into one of the basement lecture theatres, up to the fire exits at the top (which are usually closed and locked) unlock it (no key from inside needed) and get it on in the place back there - you'd never be caught ;)

    And people presume that internet nerds never get laid in real life....

    As for sex on campus, GMB is good though later in the day is probably better, and the resource room is never used... if you really need adventure try for a grand slam.

    If you're going to have sex anywhere in the GMB you might as well do it Harney-style.


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


    In the middle of front square. Go on, I dare you.

    #whatever: Do't bother posting where you've had sex. Seriously. Nobody cares.
    Posting where you hope to have sex is ok.

    #whatever + 1: Befriend CS people so they can tell you good shortcuts etc
    #whatever + 2: Go interrailing
    #whatever + 3: Go on a J1
    #whatever + 4: Stumble from the Pav to Doyle's on a Friday night
    #whatever + 5: See a chronic case of OompaLoompaItis in the Orts Block
    #whatever + 6: Live on campus
    #whatever + 7: Venture into the buildings you never usually go into. Aside from the Arts Block/Hamilton (seriously, it's not that far away), visit the Museum Building, the Physiology Building, etc
    #whatever + 8: Score a student from a "noted" degree and discover they're not all that
    #whatever + 9: Go to the Student Counselling Service Academic Workshops
    #whatever + 10: Go to a play in the Beckett
    #whatever + 11: Go into the CSC
    #whatever + 12: Get an evening meal from the Buttery
    #whatever + 13: Get a meal from the Pav
    #whatever + 14: Read all the student publications
    #whatever + 15: Say hi to Matt the Jap

    That's all.

    one potential place - requires a student card though..

    The (nassaus street side) stairs in the Ussher from the basement, don't connect with the stairs from the 1st floor...

    Its warm and quiet.. and has a window overlooking Nassau street if you are in to that kind of thing.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 11,206 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    I had a thing to do in trinity before I leave completed on tuesday - had lunch in the 1592 dininghall.

    started off with guinea fowl tuerin with plum chutney, followed by glazed duck with orange and ginger sauce, hazelnut and pecan gateau to finish, couple of glasses of nice wine, cup of coffee, and generally good company. a++


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


    That sounds like the worst dinner ever apart from the wine. Duck requires little to no sauce, it's not chicken! Chutneys shouldn't exist! Pecans were sent by Satan to haunt me! I'm not fond of coffee.

    i have to ask, what is a Grand slam?

    i have to ask, what is a Grand slam?

    Sex on every floor of the GMB. The basement isn't counted (for reasons that no one can quite explain, beyond "It's just not!"), so that leaves Phil Conversation Room/Chamber; Phil Council Room; Hist Conversation Room/Committee Room; Snooker Rooms/Bram/Middle Library; and Resource Room/Computer Room (delete as applicable depending on which rooms you have keys to and how likely you are to get caught in them). The real challenge is sex in every room (to the best of my knowledge, no one has ever managed that one).

    Sex in every room of the GMB.... sex on every floor is quite doable..

    And is has been done.


    Edit: To forestall the obvious question - a couple of P/Histy senior members went for a a couple of years back.. knowing them I'm sure it was no problem ;)


  • Posts: 17,735 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Was that before the computer room was opened?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 309 ✭✭Bartron Prime


    The 'Grand Slam' is every room in the GMB excluding the toilets, security hut and 'plant room'. The idea of 'christening' the building originates from around the early 1970s from approximately the 203rd Session of The Hist (shortly after both societies admitted women). However, the 'Grand Slam' is now having sex in every room of the GMB as the building is now significantly more open and accessible than previous years with a Resource Library, Computer Room and wi-fi in both Conversation Rooms.

    It hasn't actually been fully done by anyone as in order to access most the rooms you need a key for the general Committe/Council room issued to Committee/Council members while the Snooker Rooms & Resource Rooms can only be accessed by specific Committe/Council members. So it's more difficult than you'd think. Good luck with achieving that though. All rooms are locked when not in use and the Computer Rooms... Bravo if you get away with that. Not that I endorse that sort of carry-on. And no, no recent Hist Committee/Phil Council members have achieved the limited 'Grand Slam' (every floor), trust me. They'd lose the key to the GMB. That, and they're not worth having that much sex with :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭shay_562


    'plant room'.

    Which now?

So it's more difficult than you'd think.

    And yet still entirely doable if you really cared enough - most of the rooms are open most of the time anyway. For the specific locked rooms, you need the co-operation of two people (or one other person if you're one of the relevant officers yourself).

    The blocked up tunnel beside the cleaning supply closet at the bottom of the stairs where the toilets are? That's officially known as the 'Plant Room'. Strange, I never saw any heavy machinery go in there.. ;)

    It's not as doable (Ha! Pun!) as you'd think. The Bram is never open and keys are only issued to the heads of the Societies. The Conversation Rooms are opened and locked by security and they're heavily frequented during the day. As for the weekend, only the Officers of The Hist/the Phil and Auditor of the Theo have access and the key has to be signed out by security so they know who you are and how long you were there. Very risky.

    There were two qualifications to that Niall. The first is that the person had to be on Committee/Council at the time of said 'Grand Slam'. Secondly, succeeding on one or two floors doesn't count. Trust me on this. I know my GMB History, even the 'sordid' (read: fun) stuff. It's a part of Librarian folklore. So no, no-one has achieved it for a while. The last good attempt by a Histie was the 235th Session and the 151st Session of the Phil was the last time they came (Ha! Pun the second!) close. So, about 2-3 years.

    do u just have to slip it in? What counts as having sex these days? do you have to go at it for a few seconds/minutes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,523 ✭✭✭ApeXaviour


    The genie has to come out of the lamp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 11,206 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    but to do that you apparently only have to rub him three times, so your analogy falls apart there.

    (also, dec, if rubbing three times counts as sex for you, you should look into that :P)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,523 ✭✭✭ApeXaviour


    Wow, way to wreck a metaphor (poor as it was) neil.

    How about we pick it apart further, give it a good burial?

    -Lamps are rarely phallic, at least ancient arabian ones.
    -From what I've heard of genies, they don't resemble semen so much.
    -When the genie comes out he usually gives the person who brought him out three wishes. This is clearly sexist and would not conform with modern attitudes.
    -Genies will tend to talk. This is just scary. There is one exception, when the genie looks like:
