    Are you sure you havent been doing anything you shouldn't have on any of these rides? Anything personal for example?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 281 ✭✭Stephen Forde


    Yeah I wonder what you would do for instance if you got stuck on the ride if when it was up very high? Jeez i wonder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    I'd throw things at people... but that's just me... and I'm a horrible person. Meh. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 619 ✭✭✭pinkpimp


    Not quite as horrible as what we had in mind...Liam, care to enlighten us?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Yeah, I know. I was just trying to drag the topic to something that bears thinking about.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 281 ✭✭Stephen Forde


    Sure you dont! Maybe someone should refresh your memory eeh? How'd you like that?hmmm think hard...and think of all the possible things one can do all the way up there in a high ride.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,743 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    something bout a wánk at the top of the dropzone?

    oops ive said too much

    You should have left it another while!I wouldnt have stolen your liine or anything but the build up was gettign intense(with him not wanting anyone to know and stuff)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 619 ✭✭✭pinkpimp


    Yeah, I know if I had masturbated in public like that I wouldn't like people finding out. Especially on a popular ride like drop zone.


    (I wonder how long we can keep this alive)

    No. It sucked when I was 12 and verily at 35, it still sucketh now.

    yeah, i've got to question that too. want to choose a better adjective that might be truer to reality. i.e. one leaning very heavily towards extreme negitivty?




  • LiamD wrote:
    ...... the excellent event that is Funderland......


    hit the nail on the head Conor, Liam?

    I suggest this thread is now a thread where we discuss adequate replacements for this adjective. (Real CTYI like!)

    My suggestion - Knacker infested


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭Barry Aldwell


    Replace "excellent event" with "catastrophically bad, train wreck in slow motion"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Meh. Excellent event, no. Acceptable way to pass the time with friends, yes. I'm going anyway at some point.

  • excellent --> ****hole


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,743 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    well for those of us who dont make it to disneyland its the best ireland has to offer

    Unfortunately, yes, it is still pretty shíte


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 511 ✭✭✭LiamD


    It looks like I'm going to be working on the Americanm Swing for the duration, I was yesterday and I will be again today anyhow.And yes it is an excellent event, or so I'm to tell people...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 104 ✭✭abraham lincoln


    Knacker infested...

    Liam, I understand you work there but do you have to plug it here?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 183 ✭✭TX123


    Mariam Thankful Soul os right the place couldnt be more af a knackerfest. not to be confused with oktoberfest may i add


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 511 ✭✭✭LiamD


    First - Others have what they want in their signatures so I don't see the problem in me plugging it.You don't have to read it if you don't want

    Second - It's not the first time I've heard stuff like "It's a kip", "It's a knack hole" etc. but honestly it's not that bad.You really would be surprised how many families we get there, it's approaching about one third at this stage.The rest would be teens and young people <25 and despite what you may believe it's not full of knackers.No more than in Stephen's Green on a Saturday anyway.

    Lastly - For the record I deny all allegations made herewithin about certain activities performed on certain rides.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,198 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    I do miss the number of 10 year olds trying to start fights with me there - must go back sometime.

    and the problem with sigs is that the admins dont like advertising. and i really wish people wouldnt use that "YOU DONT HAVE TOO READ IT!!!1!" etc.

    now back on SOME form of topic.

    Ahh, The cycle is complete.

    Funderland is packed with knackers, don't try to deny it. Knackers can be included in all of the catergories, families (I believe the proper term is 'a gaggle', or 'a hoard'), teens and young people can all be knackers. If t'wasnt on the southside it would have nothing going for it. Frankly, I'd be more scared of walking by some of the people there than going on the roller coaster. Still ood craic though, depending on who you go with, obviously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    They must be 7'2", eat Mini's for breakfast, be covered in scars, muscles and scarred muscles, and wear the teeth of their crushed opponents around their neck. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 67 ✭✭Judas04


    ye d peeps who go der r a tad dodgy bt its still fun! (sorry im talkin in txt language im just not very gud at typin!) as u said it depends who u go wit.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 511 ✭✭✭LiamD


    Yeah i was on american swing today but i didnt think the crowd was too bad.Having talked to some of them in the queues and stuff lets just say appearances can be deceptive.One fella completely decked out in fred perry gear and a burberry cap turned round to me and spoke in a d4 accent........ Take from that what you will




  • That's a complete lie Liam, sorry but i just cannot believe that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 67 ✭✭Judas04


    Ah cum on its not dat bad!! i was on american swing 2day it was very fun! my top came undone halfway thru which was very embarrassing!!! ye apperances can b VERY decieb=ving!! did u c a guy wit very curly hair???

    You're obviously still F triple starred at the moment, you seem to have lost control of the english language. Oh wait, sorry, according to your second post it's "txt language". Must have missed that one on the junior cert


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 67 ✭✭Judas04

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 511 ✭✭✭LiamD


    If I did I don't remember, the amount of people I see in a day.Perhaps it would be easier if you thought if you saw me?I'm the not German guy without a moustache, that should narrow it down for ya.

    And yes Emmet that is 100% true believe it or not.I was completely shocked when I heard it too (his voice that is).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 67 ✭✭Judas04


    meh i don't really remember sorry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Yes, I don't. I haven't drunk alcohol in about....3 years now. I enjoy being in full control of my faculties. And it's almost completely incoherent, thats rather bad IMO

    Play nice Aonghus, remember what Neil said. Meh, it is hard to type drunk but I never had to resort to txt spk. I would have found that harder. After a certain point, anything except good English starts to look like HTML code or something. :rolleyes: Nicely done Holligan. And all without even getting abusive. :) We need a new flame war damn it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    It's not his thread. And you make less than no sense either way. Buh-Bye now!

    re the skanger with the d4 accent: as a parttime resident i can assure you that donnybrook has council houses too and you do hear a good few skangery types with dublin 4 accents around the area.

    re funderland: you couldn't pay me to go near the bloody place.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 281 ✭✭Stephen Forde


    nice one colm!

    there is a fair amount of skangers in Funderland but hey you'd get over it.What would you expect at an event like that. When it was in Cork and i used to go it was grand.(well in my opinion)
    Im sure alot of people of all types back grounds could possibly have similar interests.

    its not just that. seemingly being a skanger is the new cool, as being into "rock" music was a while ago. people who are filthy rich are now wearing shell suits and dazzlingly white runners.
