    agreed wholeheartedly.. although the question remains, 2 or 4 triangles? I go for 2 personally, those tiny quarters don't seem as filling as 2 halves.

    when someone starts a sentence "I'm not criticising...." they are about to criticise.

    If they start "I'm not being bossy...." they are about to be bossy.

    etc etc.

    2 is still halving, he must mean 4.

    yeah but it's the shape that makes the taste...

    by your logic, a sandwich quatered in squares would taste better than a triangular halved sandwich - that i could not agree with..

    Undeniable truths?

    Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly

    Everyone remembers the day a dog ran into their school

    The most embarrassing thing you can do as a schoolchild is call your teacher "mom" or "dad"

    The smaller the monkey the more it looks like it would kill you at the first given opportunity

    It's impossible to look cool while picking up a frisbee

    You've turned into your dad the day you put aside a thin piece of wood specifically to stir paint with

    Every bloke has, at some stage, while taking a pee, flushed halfway through and then raced against the flush

    There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad :pac:

    If they start "I'm not being bossy...." they are about to be bossy.

    etc etc.

    Or if they start "I'm not being racist but......." you better believe someone's about to be called a n!gger

    Compulsive liars cant help themselfs but it's annoying when they expect you to believe their untruths .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    If you drink lots of beer & eat taco fries you CAN'T stray too far from the toilet the next day.

    If you're trying to avoid someone, chances are you will fall over in front of them.

    Mother doesn't know best because if she did she wouldn't have given me a dog bowl hair cut when I was younger.

    New Years Eve is usually spent kissing & hugging people you would normally cross the road to avoid/ like to set on fire.

    It's so true, even if you have already got it stuch and released 10 times you still panic. I think the only reason you get it stuck in the first place is for the relief of getting it unstuck

    In the words of Mrs. Doyle "They're diagonal". Glorious.

    Mayo people, myself included, refer to all crisps as "Tayto".

    You can't get your hair to look as nice as it did leaving the hairdresser yourself.

    Tea from the pot tastes better than a bag in the cup.

    The worst has to be "Now no offence but..." I put my offended face straight on when I hear that.

    Other truths: The weather is always best during the Leaving, you'll always get ill at the worst possible time, and it's only when you have to get up early that you can't get to sleep.

    I only realised the true extent of that when I went to Turkey a few years ago on holiday. The local food had me in ribbons & for about three months after it I had a phobia about farting anywhere else but in the toilet.
    Nasty :eek:

    Seen graffiti'd on the wall behind a restaurant in Limerick:

    "It's not always about what you get out of it."

    It was in a speechbubble coming from an anthromorphised ice cream.


    What?

    Completely off-topic, I know, but there are some brilliant graffiti artists in Limerick. Plenty of shite ones too though, they're unavoidable.
