    Northon and Southon were taken...:P

    Smellbridge rocks

    Leixlip, as long as they stay on there side of the motorway, theres no trouble:P

    Maynooth gets along with everybody, never heard of Gaynooth before:confused:

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    Gaynooth, love it! I've never heard this before either, but it's genius. When I went to maynooth college i couldn't help but notice two things. (1) I only ever say one black dude on campus, and he was a lecturer! (granted this was a couple years ago, but in my experience of other college campuses, NUI maynooth struck me as being a whole lot whiter!) and (2) there were gay people everywhere. I never did a survey but I think somewhere between 90-90% of the people there were gay (and EVERY girl i tried to chat up there responded with something along the lines of "sorry, i'm gay"...funny, that!).

    I'm sure "gaynooth" came about due to the childish habit of using the word "Gay" as some sort of outrageous insult, but those childish sons of guns didn't know how right they were!


  • Moderators Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭ChewChew


    thats a very interesting story!! you should have done a survey! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 776 ✭✭✭Fall_Guy


    Yep, I could see that working very well. "Excuse me sir/madam, are you gay by any chance?"

    this would probably lead to one of the following things happening:-

    1) Offended straight guy headbutts me
    2) Offended straight girl knees me in balls
    3) Offended man-hating gay girl kicks me in the shins with her doc martins
    4) Offended gay guy biatch-slaps the taste right out of my mouth
    5) Flattered gay guy tries to bring me home to have his way with me.

    I don't think the survey was worth the risk!!

    Another celbridge-head here, seems to be all north kildare folks on this, does no one south of naas use boards?!

    Wow, those are some interesting stats alright, you should should post a survey in the NUI Maynooth forum and see what happens:rolleyes:

    Could be the reason why there are so many shopping centres in Maynooth...:D

    Well, theres a little itty bity one over near the Newton Inn, another smallish one at the Maxol on the Straffan road, the slightly larger one at the Glenroyal, the biggish Manor Mills, the equally large Tesco SC, and the humungous new Tesco's which is being built at the mo ( I hear M&S are going in there too...)

    Although 2 shops in close proximity are a S.C. to me so I may be exaggerating....:D:D

    O ye, and a Lidl and an Aldi in the same town, hmmmm, seems fishey to me....:D

    I would'nt exactly call them shopping centre in fairness :eek: but Manor Mills falls under that category. ;)

    The new tesco will be great. There is going to be Marks & Spencers and a Penny's amongst others. :D

    Definitely a big gay population in NUI Maynooth, always wondered about that. Considering most of the students there are from the country I'm thinking gay-ness is a big thing amongst us culchies.

    I KNEW it wasn't just me, the place it crawling with gay folks (not that there's anything wrong with that!)...hmm, about the culchie thing, i'm guessing after 18 years of having to supress their sexuality in order to avoid regular gay-bashings from the local jocks from the gaa clubs, the fresh faced culchie gay-folk lose all the run of themselves when they reach the liberal gay-friendly college town that is maynooth. They must love it, its like a whole village-load of the only gay in the village all descending on one unsuspecting satellite town, from a famine to a feast in one simple CAO admission!
