    Ok, the last thread about 2008 took off and is getting pretty negative, not helped by me.
    So if 2008 was a bad year for you, what do you hope to get out of or achieve in 2009?

    The Dublin Wax Museum will reopen and I'll finally be able to get back into the dating scene as a result!

    Howzat ?

    You date waxworks ? You model there ? Or you find people who visit there very attractive / desperate ?

    I didn't know it had closed down.

    /OT ... In 2009 I will be hoping to embrace my fear of frying and learn to love bac-on.

    2008 was by far the worst year of my life.

    All I want for 2009 is health and a little happiness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,378 ✭✭✭Krieg

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,544 ✭✭✭✭Supercell

    :confused: You like the lack of personality by chance?

    I hope for good weather, a move to Dublin combined with finding a decent job (could be a big ask), to forget about this year's woes, start spending some of that SSIA money again on holidays further afield and to get back into doing all the cool things I've stopped doing in recent months.

    Sheesh guys... it's nothing weird or anything... It's just a good place to go on a date. Won't be the same without the furry tunnels of course.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,314 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    Hope to gain financial security, Keep my job, build my house, and hopefully get a start in saving for my year off trip!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cokehead Mother


    I hope the local McDonalds start hiring and that nobody remembers my birthday.

    Either way it'll probably be a great year.

    Furry tunnels you say ?

    Are there any monkeys, hawt or otherwise, in the Wax Museum ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    I hope I win the lotto.

    Don't think so. I always had to supply my own anyway.

    Fair enough. At least the place isn't weird or anything.

    Explain how that works... :P

    I am hoping for a job of some sort. Hopefully something that will match my skill set. At this point I don't care who I work or what I work at, I just want a job :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,709 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    A job. Simple as.


    A ride would also be nice. The internet is running out of fresh porn at an alarming rate


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    If a girl was freaked out by the idea of crawling through a furry tunnel with you in the dark, then you'd know right away that she wasn't the one for you.

    Great for cutting out the time wasters.

    Clever. If a girl's idea of a good time is some foostering around in the furry tunnel with you ... she's a keeper.
    Especially if the monkey horde also approve.

    The dark backdrop and ambience is a plus as well.

    Why stop at one?

    What I don't get is how people need to wait for the new year to try to make a change. If your life was that bad then you would have made the change as soon as possible.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,348 ✭✭✭the drifter


    to live to see 2010....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,150 ✭✭✭LivingDeadGirl


    Hopefully do a great leaving and have a brilliant summer afterwards, then COLLEGE! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,716 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    Open a fake Wax Museum and take monkeyfudge for every penny he's got.

    @monkeyfudge - disregard.

    You could use the real Pat Kenny instead of a wax dummy.... wouldn't be as realistic as the wax dummy though.

    To be cancer free (as this year to date, as far as I know) and to have a healthy baby (and for my husband and I and our familes to be healthy). To continue being happily married. That my family are healthy and happy and that my brother settles down with the lovely girl he is now dating. I know that I am hoping for a lot, but you have to dream.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    Pass all my exams
    Get a job
    Have a good time travelling

    In that order


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,544 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    Those sound like great things to wish for CathyMoran, I hope they all come true for you :)

    My genuine 2009 wishes in order of importance :_

    1) Pop the queston to someone special
    2) That someone special says yes

    If they come true, I'll be happy out :) ,though keeping my job would be nice so i could treat her like the princess she is :)

    In 2009 I hope for world peace, financial stability and to finally get rid of that nest of spiders living in my PC.

    Don't get me wrong, I love spiders but they tend to attract a lot of hungry, hungry magpies around this time of year and those cnuts are always stealing my smokes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,332 ✭✭✭311


    Hopefully stop drinking in 2009 and loose some of the excess dioxins I've been eating in 2008:)
