  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet

    I go on the internet a lot, and I can't watch porn all day or it starts to hurt, so boards is the obvious replacement.

    And how the hell can someone actually sit and watch porn all day? A friend of mine does it. You could go into his house, and he'd just be sitting there, watching it. Not even ****, just watching. Its a bit weird, tbh.

    Actually I suppose generally it would be.i've just always been one for a comfy pub,good pub smell,with some music in the background and some chats.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 149 ✭✭Micko23


    You make an unnecessary grunt when you sit down and say 'now'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    When you see a good looking girl wearing thin tights in the Winter and your first thought is "jaysis, she must be freezing"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Rather stay at home than go out!

    Certain taste in music, clothes, tv and films change!

    Going to bed earlier and getting up earlier!

    Taking the time with the booze when out...

    Falling asleep on couch before bed!

    Complaining about noise!

    When the barber asks if you want your eyebrows trimmed as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,288 ✭✭✭✭Standard Toaster

    You realise you're older than most/all the players on your favourite sports team.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭KKkitty


    Your much younger siblings become embarrassed by your attempts to be hip.
    When you'd rather a good strong cup of tea than an alcoholic beverage.
    When you start saying "young people these days"

    Strong tea is sublime Snowie. You're never going to forget my fcuked up knees are ya :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,540 ✭✭✭Giselle


    When you randomly think to yourself that you'd love a nice cup of tea.

    When a cup of tea mentally becomes 'a nice cup of tea'

    When it becomes much more important that you keep warm when you're out than it is that you look good.

    When you make an excuse to NOT go out, because you're tired and theres a good movie on you haven't seen.

    When you stop caring about any of the above.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,814 ✭✭✭harry Bailey esq


    you start shopping in boyers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,939 ✭✭✭ballsymchugh
