    Let's try this again.
    This time without flirty crap.

    Every time my boyfriend has said something funny today, I've taken a post-it, written "thanks" on it and stuck it on him.

    Come on everyone! Buy a pack and let's make this stick! :pac:

    EDIT: Oh I drew little thumbs up on them too!


    Sometimes I tilt my head and smile. :>)

    It just doesn't work in real life. Boards (the internet in general) allows people to express a side of them they may not show in real life or may not reveal completely in "real life".

    All this means is I'll have to bring tissues and hand cream with me when I leave the house from now on.

    I can't see the hot female population appreciating this. At least porn doesn't find you disgusting.

    Ya should probably remove the link to the old thread in the OP there Terry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada


    I hang out with 6th in real life. That fella is to boards what Neo is to the Matrix


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    I thank people for their comments and opinions without thinking about it.

    Oh and I stopped saying yore ma as soon as it fizzled out in AH. Once every so often I'd give it an airing though.

    Oh yeah, sometimes I almost tell people to stop talking about certain gigs.

    Shut up! Do you really? Now that's funny shít :)


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 16,698 Mod ✭✭✭✭Silverfish


    As soon as someone says something I don't like, I run to their immediate superior / parents / member of the law enforcement to report them.

    Then if nothing is done, I do the same thing only take it a step further, then when I get in trouble I protest down the Dail about how unfair it was.

    Yep. I spend far too much time here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,309 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    I often fit myself saying "pic or GTFO" or " Tits or GTFO"

    Reminds me of when I used to be an altar server. We had to bow every time we left the altar. Then one day I went up to my teacher's desk so she could correct my homework or something and I bowed at her before going back to my seat. She thought I was "being cheeky".

    I'll admit to saying that to people by accident.

    I went to my friends cousins 21st 2 weeks ago. I never met the cousin. I just went for the booze and for a good night.

    It was the first time I met most of my friends extended family, grandparents, aunts, uncles & cousins.

    We all got drunk, and had a great night. At one point I remember an uncle saying something to me and I replied with ''STFU & GTFO'' and his son who is about 25 broke his heart laughing cause he knew exactly what it was then forced me to explain it.

    Thankfully they all larfed!!

    I often find myself closing down for maintenance when my database gets corrupted by caffeine.

    I'm a fooker for real life modding >.<

    if someone is actin the muppet i take out a hammer and let em have it. I have also banned people from my house varying between 3 weeks and 6 months.

    Do my best to edit what they say but it's a lot harder in person, best i've mustered thus far is make someone repeat what they've said. Much to everyone's amusement

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,058 ✭✭✭✭Abi


    I say 'loz' and when Im agreeing with someone I say 'and a plus one to that'. I use +++ in covoz. If asked about going somewhere I dont wana go, I respond with 'effort plus plus plus'.

    Tbh gets a regular mention, and have called someone a troll for starting a row.Im told regularly Im a nerd, to which I tell them they are a wänker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,252 ✭✭✭norwegianwood


    I said 'tbh' at the end of a sentence the other day, and didnt notice until the person stared at me like I had three heads.:p


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    The memory card on my phone is filled with lolcat pictures that I use when ever I feel is neccessary.

    Tempted to start saying that. If only it didn't make me seem like a complete nerd. It's funny though.

    In the same way some feel the need to be nasty to convince themselves they have a large penis, but its purely just Jabber.

    You think post count rawks my world? Fraid not. Couldnt give a fock. I get a kick out of replying to cocky fúckers that take a stab at posters that mean no harm, but others use them as an e-penis pump.

    Its not always as it seems.

    Don't post in this thread again or I will ban you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,859 ✭✭✭✭Sharpshooter


    :(It's the pics or GTFO that destroys you irl.
    Friend of mine was chatting about herself and the other half and went into very sexual detail.
    I automatically said pics or GTFO.:o
    She hadn't a clue what I was on about.:o

    That will teach me to answer a normal conversation outside of boards with boards speak, and expect the other person to know where I am coming from.:(
