    s'plain later when i forget most and am not tired.

    things like chip changing in head, arm being taken off etc
    /lazy

    My cousin was obsessed with this film, when it came out.
    And for months and months he made us endlessly reinact the scenes.
    He even picked Arnie for his confirmation name. :D

    Ahh to be a kid again!

    I'd rather Arnie than my confirmation name :/

    vegetarian beats zombie
    The online dating site OKCupid, which had me at "hello, here's how our match algorithm works," has been publishing troves of great stats about self-presentation and response rates. In their latest analysis of the impact of words in conversational overtures, they find that netspeak (ur, u, luv) and physical compliments (sexy, hot, cutie) are a big FAIL. And that niche interests (like "zombie" and "vegetarian") increase reply rates. Their presentation of the results is even great (but guys, where are the error bars? What's a stats nerd to think?):

    sooooo awake after walking home '_'

    I didn't notice any extended bit in Terminator :confused:

    Hope you got your bus ok Feu!

    yeh, it was a while since i saw it, but none of it seemed new, maybe i saw the extended version last!

    yep perfect time for the bus, home in bed by 12 :D Great to meet ye, and nyom Govindas except for the cauliflower :confused: Also good call on the milkshakes. Mmm daim bar.

    things like chip changing in head, arm being taken off etc

    edit: there was definitely more jokes than I remember - all the smiling bits and yep the arm being taken off. How lucky that they just happen to pass an 18-wheeler full of liquid nitrogen on their way to the steel mill!!

    Well, I just emailed the central societies committee at Trinity to ask, so I'll find out for sure soon enough! I have heard mention of the Trinity society from a couple of people, but nothing solid. I know that the student societies at UCD and Maynooth are up and running and I wouldn't be surprised if TCD are on the edge of recognition if they are acting in an 'unofficial' capacity at the moment.

    Just to confirm to anyone curious, TCD Veggie Soc isn't a registered society of TCD.

    I wonder if they see brains as having a tofu-like consistency, and not actually a source of meat?
