    Was anybody else witness to the emotional distraught to the general public last night??

    It was surreal, I left my house to a neighbor screaming from her house which was surrounded by the local youths. Also saw a handful of powerwalking/sobbing men&women and was even aggresivly confrounted by one and asked why men are all such horrible gob****es :confused::confused: naturally i ignored her but w/e

    Anyone else notice this??

    ((Emotions + Too Much Drink)Hallmark Holiday) = Dont love me no more carnage

    Its nothing unusual really, people have visions of this lovely perfect day and something goes wrong and they argue. Then there are inevitably break ups, unrequited loves and rebuked lovers, fun for all.

    You see it every weekend but its more common on valentines. Probably because there's more couple out I suppose.

    That just sounds downright strange. You sure there wasnt something serious up there ?

    Sounds like an average St Patricks day occurrence! :(

    Assholes with maybe too much drink on them, annoying others.

    Was all quiet in my neck of the woods last night. Went for a few solitary pints with a book yesterday evening (how sad!) and when the twentysomethings appeared and started firing the booze into themselves I went home...

    True. Paddys day is the one day that i studiously avoid leaving the house. All the amateur boozers come out of the woodwork.

    Ah they were only about 12/13 I doubt it, her raging voice was definatly fueled by some sort of romantic encounter. Mabey the children informed her of that unfortunate face she has.

    hope you were quick to retort with the "you choose 'em love"... Nothing like shifting the blame back onto the heartbroken!!

    +1

    The Dart is just full of drunk 15-year-olds on Paddy's Day...more so than usual. I do enjoy St. Patrick's Day, but it's far better to go and have the craic somewhere where the amateur drinkers aren't.

    I was walking down from Leeson street to the nitelink and I witnessed two separate couples having these raging arguments. Naturally I slowed down for an earwig and it was things like "I know how you feel about this but there's nothing I can do blah blah"

    And the other one was the poor lad going "I didn't think it was that big a deal" haha wonder what that was about.

    Walking for the Nitelink relatively sober lets you appreciate all the fecked up drunkards in their inebriated and ridiculous glory.

    Wot? Fighting over who's grabbing the joystick then?

    I work in a hotel, and there was fights, armlocks, drunken idiots falling all over the stairs, people fighting smoke machines, people throwing up on other people, men being driven head first trough emergency exits, arguments, people starting fights with staff, bottles being thrown into rooms,of walls, the usual for a hallmark holiday weekend. It came to 7.00 and I was so tired and pissed off. I'm suprised the place was'nt burnt to the ground.

    Not........really.......but there where some blood-curdling screams emitted from the room which would suggest to any passers-by that whatever perverted endeavor me and my partner had decided to pursue had reached a successful climax.....
