    Only in the last 48 hours! I was sworn to secrecy. I may already have said too much... >_>

    I already had been tipped off via a PM conversation with a mod...

    So it wasn't any big surprise. A good one though!

    I'm guessing this thread could/should be moved now? Unless we want ULers to remember our existence:p

    I wonder who that was! :P

    As far as I know the UL mods have been alerted in one way or another, so hopefully the thread will be relocated when one of them gets the chance.

    And then we can begin the Mary I memes thread. :pac:

    Mary I has finally joined the College Facebook meme revolution, we're a tad late here on Boards..!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 102 ✭✭johnryano


    can we unsticky and or move this thread


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    I've moved this thread from the UL forum. Could be used as a chat thread maybe?


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    As my *very* first act as moderator [cue applause] I've changed the title of this thread so it better reflects what has been and will be discussed in it. Any suggestions for better titles most welcome!


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Already said it in there, but congrats on the modship. Totally deserved!

    Now, we need a witty title for this chit chat thread. How about "The Stairs: Off-Topic Chat". That's where you new-uns are meeting to talk in Mary I right? Bastards with your new building!

    I almost edited your post instead of replying to it :o Still getting the hang of these extra buttons!

    "In there" is most certainly a good way of putting it - it's like a parallel universe I never knew existed.

    I'm not sure if people call it 'the stairs' - I always call it 'The Steps', and I know I've heard mention of 'Big Step Little Step' in places. I'll hold off to see if I get some more suggestions and will make changes to the title then.

    Whatever we're calling them, you don't half get a numb bum from 'em! :D

    May I suggest The Numb Bum lounge? :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭Poxyshamrock


    As much as I give out about the place, the campus sure looks lovely in this weather! :cool:


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    I can't get over the effect the weather has had on everyone's humour! Everyone is going round in bright summer colours, grinning like fools :D


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,933 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    I love strolling through college in my sunglasses. People look at me and start to laugh, and then stop in case I'm someone important! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭Cailin CoisFarraige


    The inside of a lecture hall won't be seen this week I'd say, unless it's enitrely compulsory! Hope it holds up for the races! :D

    Poor first years on TP. . .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 941 ✭✭✭Ciderswigger


    I heard there was only 25 in 1st year History yesterday morning. She did say that she was going to record the lecture because of the B.eds being on TP. That's basically a get out of jail free card! :D:p

    Oh first year TP. How traumatising you are. (notevenmad)

    In other news, the weather's meant to go back to "regular dull ****e" tomorrow, so enjoy it while you can!


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 2,283 Mod ✭✭✭✭angeldaisy


    its wonderful to see everyone outside enjoying the sunshine :D - not bitter that I'm stuck inside :(


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    The Canteen was doing its best to capitalise on the sunshine anyway...

    Haha, amazing. I really must pop in while I'm on my mid-term and give the place a lookin' over. I imagine it's a whole new world.

    In other news I was reading over the first few 100 posts in this thread and getting nostalgic. Good times! I was so bitter in that college :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,383 ✭✭✭peckerhead


    Speaking of nostalgia, when are we going to see this sexy beast back on the homepage of the College website?

    ... WHY did I click play?:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭Poxyshamrock


    Hopefully that video never makes a come-back.

    His voice goes through me.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,933 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    The college has a new sexy Gaelgeoir. :cool:

    I'm just not famous yet. :pac:

    Are we meant to thank that?! :p

    Daithi should have plenty of time for making a new Mary I video now that his TV show has been axed.


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Goodness I hope not... His face still haunts me to this day. I would be willing to watch him re-enact this though. Same to you Tommy!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭Poxyshamrock


    This weather is sick :O
    How can we go from June weather to February/October in a week!


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    Somebody nearly ran into me today at full speed, trying to dodge the rain. At least the weather should help with essay writing/study :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,871 ✭✭✭Poxyshamrock


    Are the printers still acting the bollix?

    Have to print some for 10 and want to know of I have to come in for 9?


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Question: Can we please make the charter black? If not I will only be posting in bright pink from now on.

    Oh yes, it's true...

    Everybody gets out the other end of it,so don't worry! Best of luck.

    And good luck to the 2nd B.Eds who'll be facing into phonics, puppets, teddies and hundreds of 15 minute lessons next week. ;)


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 2,503 Mod ✭✭✭✭dambarude


    Is léir go bhfuil béaltrialacha ar siúl sa choláiste an tseachtain seo - cloistear i bhfad níos mó Gaeilge á labhairt ná mar a chloistear de ghnáth. Ádh mór orthu siúd atá á ndéanamh!

    It's obvious that orals are on this week - you hear much more Irish than you normally would. Good luck to anybody doing them!

    That's a Bród Club reference I'm guessing? I've had very limited access to TV the last while so I haven't seen that programme at all.

    I've been waiting a long time for that congrats btw ;)

    Lovely atmosphere in the forum today. Well done to all those who organised it or sang/played!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 941 ✭✭✭Ciderswigger


    To the girl one seat away from me in the computer room.... congrats, your constant staring at me has weirded me out enough to leave. :rolleyes:

    There are some serious distractions to be had round the college. When I was in the library earlier this week I looked out the window towards the res block to see somebody in pyjamas doing a handstand on the res block stairs! All I could see was their legs!

    The Forum really was excellent today. :)

    I think that would be a good idea! It can be a bit negative here at times...
