Trinnerheads and why I hate them

Denerick

Glad someone cracked it :pac:

I stand by the SU remark. Now there is one institution I can't stand.

You started the thread after 12 noon, doesn't that make you the April Fool?

(I am now going to smile smugly in the way that only a Trinity student can)

According to the ever trustworthy wikipedia, April Fools is considered to last all day in Ireland.

Unregistered.

Ah, but wikipedia also says that it only lasts until noon in the UK - and everybody knows that Trinity is for West Brits, meaning that April Fools ends at noon for any Trinity student such as the OP

Loike he'd be up before noon - his weekly lecture is probably at 3pm!
(oh how I am enjoying this thread - thank you OP!)

Comfort yourself with the Sartre quote, "Hell is other people". This is just cross that you super-smart people have to bear.

Read through this thread and didn't cop it till the admission. Does that say more about me, or what I expect from troll threads on this forum?

The way things are going its going to be engineers who end up in Mc Donalds, not us useless arts block students!

I must also add that this thread was inspired somewhat from my recent finishing of Catch 22. Thought I better mention that. Because I'm a Trinity student who loves broadcasting what they've just finished reading.

Time is irrelevant to us in the arts block.

I am a female student from Dublin, which means that I am probably too rich to eat in McDonalds with all the povs.

However, I suppose there is always the danger that they might spit in my iced quad venti with whip skinny caramel macchiato. I'll try to be nicer in future.

April Fool's jokes are meant to be funny, not just things that aren't true or interesting.

You know another thing thats wrong with Trinity? The English. There's too many English people there. It grinds my gears.

wanting to get a bit of reaction and controversy is one thing
this is too far dude. too far.

bordering on racist now!

Its not female genital mutilation, they're just a different colour silly.

Now your making me think what I wrote was true.

Since when are the English a race? Or remotely oppressed? I think someone needs a dictionary.

Anyway, there are loads of English students around, many of whom are total arseholes, and are unfortunately more conspicuous due to their accents and habits. It's bound to irritate people.

It's certainly going a lot further than the "A to Z of hamilton jacks" thread.

I prefer the term "traggot".

First of all I am a Trinity student. Who does Arts. Which probably makes me a Trinity thoroughbred. Nevertheless, my experience at Trinity has led me to despise 90% of students in the university.

I hate most people. Whether they're in trinity or not. I can't imagine this being any different if I were in another Uni.

1) The SU. The students Union is run by a pack of jokes for a joke student population. The emphasis is on terrible jokes and an overly relaxed, 'one-of-the-lads-who-doesn't-like-to-take-things-too-seriously' management style.

You're right...but who cares? I have exactly 0% interest in the SU. Why would it bother you?

Denerick wrote: »

2) Trinity fashion. You cannot wear hoodies and tracky bottoms around the college. Well I do, but its a bit of an exception. The Urban outfitters thing is infuriating.

Plenty of people wear hoodies etc. into college. Plenty don't. People are individuals at the end of the day. If people have a problem with what you're wearing;its their problem.

3) Wealthy Dublin female students. Trinity has these in huge abundance. They usually wear colourful hats or do something 'whacky' with their hair. They undoubtedly have solid views on social justice and the aspiration of a better world. Every evening they go back to their comfertable home in the suburbs, sit down to dinner with mammy and daddy and recount the horrific trials and tribulations they see in inner city Dublin every day. The man on the street really gets them down.

You're just pissed you're not getting any.

4) The not quite D4 types. UCD has a monopoly on the D4 so I can't go too harsh on Trinity here. But its amazing to hear 3rd and 4th year students from all round the country who have developed a wierd hybrid accent which sounds vaguely like its from Donnybrook, but not quite there.

Theres nothing wrong with pronouncing things properly. What kind of accent do you have?

Denerick wrote: »

5) The pretensions to being well read. Its in every TCD students interest to claim they've read at least four of five times more than they actually have. And that they are at least three times smarter than the average student in any other institution in Ireland. Its bollox.

I don't hang around with these types. Simple as.

Denerick wrote: »

6) The fact that loads of people will react to this with scorn or outrage. Trinity students excell in not 'looking bothered' and will undoubtedly react to this post with a curious reaction of condemnation, arrogance and attempts at humour. Ah well.

*shakes fist*

yeh trinity's not all it's cracked out to be. (Fresher's point of view). The people are annoying and shallow. (Well not all).

Randomness

I love Trinity, warts and all!

I think the op hates him/herself. You should try and stop hating everyone in order to stop hating yourself just like you should love yourself before you love anyone else. Obviously theres certain people you just have to hate lol, like the SU, but theres some of the nicest people ever in the college. We are all different at the end of the day. Theres nearly 20,000 in the college so you will find every personality. Some are great.

I don't hate myself, but after seeing two identical nonsensical and illiterate posts from yourself, my opinions of you ain't too high.
