    What was it? :)

    The ability to correctly use the past tense!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    No need to be pedantic. The man has just seen a shooting star and is obviously quite excited. Grammar will be the last thing on his mind.

    Isn't it against the charter to be a grammar nazi?

    No-one ever reads the charter.

    Not until they get banned or infracted anyway.

    Ahh, sorry. Boasting about said star negates any and all wishes made.

    Nice try though, here's a gold star.

    Perhap one should familiarise himself with it,lest one finds himself in a spot of bother?

    Twinkle Twinkle little star

    Star so bright
    Star shine bright...some song or poem like that!:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,893 ✭✭✭The_B_Man


    That sounds more like the lyrics to that song by The Frames.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭LighterGuy


    Wicked!:D

    and i made a wish too!;)

    Man they are so hard to see.
    I remember the last one I saw. August 2006 (freaky the way I remember the month :confused: )

    ... its the type of thing where you got to be looking at the sky, at the right time and the right place. Only lasts for 1 second. Like a tiny nick in the night sky.

    That "initial excitement" excuse is taking a hammering, unless you're still "initially excited" ?

    They were only satellites - it's wrong to wish on space hardware.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭smokedeels


    well, let's pretend airplanes are shooting stars..... blah blah

    Anyway... I just got woken up by dogs and loud banging, had a look my window to see some little feckers robbing a house, called the police and now I'm super paranoid.

    Never mind that, what he saw was not a star but merely a rock of piece of space junk burning up.

    You don't really ever want to have an actual star in the atmosphere, we'd be pretty ****ed
    (well unless you had factor 8 trillion sun cream)

    Just because no-one reads it doesn't mean it isn't there.

    A shooting star, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

    The night sky in all it's glory is truly one of nature's wonders, one we rarely get to see. I camped in the Grand Canyon on a clear night and the sky was mesmerising, you get to see a shooting star every minute or so. When you see the night sky without the, so called, city light pollution you understand why the ancients were so fascinated by the stars, it's truly wonderful.

    I have to see it again some time.

    It is in the charter.
    I care.
    I try not to bother with people using bad grammar within threads, but when it's in the thread title which I have to see every effing time I open After Hours it bothers me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,955 ✭✭✭Conall Cernach


    What's the big deal about seeing shooting stars? I see them fairly regularly. Is it because you are from urban areas and can't normally see the night sky?
