    Picture the scene... Your looking for a pub with your friends who dont use internet forums...

    you walk up to a pub filled entirely with after hours regular posters who know who you are.

    do you bring your mates in or make an excuse to go elsewhere?

    go elsewhere now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,462 ✭✭✭MaybeLogic


    Bring your mates in and try and pass them off as some of Boards well known, but not known in real life, legends.

    Pighead, Flutt etc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Do a little dance, make a little love and finally get down tonight.:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    Ah yes, because AH posters are a completely different species.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,806 ✭✭✭✭KeithM89_old

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,952 ✭✭✭Lando Griffin


    Run home and grab your laptop and start posting the other Boardies in the pub.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    Your friend may also be freaked though if you refer to the guys at the bar by their username.

    Are they acting and talking the same as they do on here or are they normal.

    For example if I said “So what did you do on Friday?” to one of them would they say “Your ma!”

    Or would they actually have a normal conversation?

    Anytime I meet people through Boards it’s been good so I would have no problem going in.

    If we had mates to go to pubs with we wouldn't be After Hours regulars.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    AH regulars ARE my friends. Whether they want to be or not.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,678 ✭✭✭LambsEye

    I'd wrap my friend in bacon and throw them to the ravenous horde and while they're being sexually mauled I'd say something witty like "welcome to the internet sucker"

    Some of the other chains just employ sheeple.
    Some day you should go into Currys, (I think that's what its called) they employ lots of retired people and they roam the store like zombies trying to tell you all sorts of bull. Fair play to them though I guess...

    Nah. Give it a few weeks and you'll be talking motherboards in the Tech forum, followed by 'Salt 'n' Vinegar or Cheese and Onion' on AH and 'I'm so lonely... ' on Personal Issues:p Cool with a 'k', haha. Kunt.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    Krap I may have gone too far. Will retreat for a bit.

    NEVER! Push it until the other person cries or bleeds in my opinion.

    I did make a friend on the interwebs once. When she transitioned from digital mate to flesh mate we had to concoct a big story about how we met before we met each other's friends.

    Yeah I had the same vague recollection... I remember spending it with wild abandon.. Okay maybe not but I remember having some...

    If this were ever to occur I would have to insist that everyone refer to me not by my username but my real name of Commander Matryoshka Perriwinkle VI.

    I'm not real anyway. I'm just a composition of racist/incendiary comments collected from sources around the interwebs and set by spammers to randomly post on Boards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    It's grand till you have to introduce people..

    Don't be absurd. My friends would NEVER have believed that. We made up something much more realistic:

    I was walking down West 4th street walking the dog, (The yo-yo trick, not an actual dog,) and at the exact same time she was coming out of an Art Gallery on West 3rd holding an absurdly large artistic installation, consisting of plaster casings of a perplexed looking lemur holding eight individual pears. SO, we're both strolling along doing our thing and we both notice that there's a singular playing card (the 3 of clubs if you must know,) lying on the pavement. We both reach for it, bump heads and then laugh about how silly we are. We agree to rip the card in half and be best friends forever.

    I am wearing a comical hat in this memory. This may or may not accurate.

    Wow yeah that's way more believable. I underestimated you. Apologies. I'd say you wore the comical hat alright. Kinda holds it all together. Props.
