    Just did an online mock driving theory test.

    I have never driven a car. I dont technically know how to drive. I've never studied for it. Nothing like that. It was just something I decided to do out of curiosity. 40 questions, need 35 to pass. You have 40 minutes, I did it in 15.

    My result?

    36 out of 40.

    I think everybody should go for at least a provisional license, just to have it. The theory isn't hard and once you start driving you'll love it.

    Don't mean to rain on your parade.

    Even though I have no interest in driving (Walking and public transport do me well) but I did the theory test around 2 years ago and got 40/40 (Without even picking up a book)

    Unfortunately the test expires so I had to apply for a learners permit around 3 months ago and luckily I got one before the theory test expired!!

    Odd that signing Nuri Sahin on a loan feels so good. When your used to looking at fúcking shít like Adam, Downing, Spearing, Carroll and Windy Shepard Henderson it feels like a huge deal. Pity we haven't got a goalscorer :'-(

    I still don't get the Henderson signing. He looked so basic for Sunderland anytime I watched him play!

    For the four I got wrong, two of them I had the right answer but changed :mad: The third was also 50-50 but I didn't change my pick on that. The fourth was a complete guess about weight restrictions for a class B licence. Had I not changed I'd have gotten 38 :pac:

    Like you I dont have an interest in driving but I'll do it a few more times and if I keep passing I'll book the real thing.

    Milan lose the first game of the season at home to Samp and I ain't shocked, thats what happens when most your players leave and are replaced with crap free's, loans and swaps. Quite happy with the Liverpool performance bar Gerrard who looks out of place in our new shtyle of football.
    Who in the name of god designed the new away kits for Barca they are John Cena bad.

    Watching the Oscar-nominated Brooke Hogan-shark movie now. It's so bad it's good. Like all SyFy films.

    Yeah but prolonging going out there isn't the answer! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,888 ✭✭✭Charisteas


    I'm a real world guy, never liked education or the college/university lifestyle although I did get through it. Only thing about the real world that sucks for me right now is 1/3rd my salary going on rent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    Any jobs going, grames? :P

    *ahem* I got a free trip to Wrestlemania in the "real world" - I think that's a bit more fun than college! :pac:


    [sorry - I hadn't mentioned it in about 5 minutes - I was having withdrawel symptons! :p]

    6,000 jobs

    there are jobs there, they're just not being handed to people on a silver platter anymore.
    as mentioned above, alot of those complaining about there being no jobs are those putting in little or no effort.
