    * Take a picture of the message played before a movie in every cinema the one that says " the use of camera equipment in this theatreis forbidden...." try to get at least two head in front of the screen aswell for effect
    I can not be responsible for you or your equipment during the mission

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 849 ✭✭✭mentalimplosion


    aaah! there's a grim reaper sign on my way home from school! at least there was last may... and no way am i bringing my camera into the cinema. you'd have to use flash and then people'd notice.... i may be bored but i'm not an idiot... oh wait... damn.


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


    Camera phones don't flash. If I'm at the cinema this weekend I'll get that picture. I doubt it's illegal to take a picture of that thing anyway. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 133 ✭✭Kitsune


    Can camera phones take pictures with that little light though?

    They can if they have Night Mode. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 133 ✭✭Kitsune


    Ah, cool. You learn something new every day....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Zounds


    are these grim reaper signs common or is there only one or a few? also, Kitsune are you Guy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Elephamt king is guy. There's a grim reaper sign near me, I may take a picture of it. It scared me when I first saw it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Zounds


    huh, damn, i knew that, who's kitsune then?

    am i the only one who has no idea what a grim reaper sign is?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    It's the sign of a woman crossing the road holding a kids hand basically to warn motorists to be vigilant when driving along that road but the woman is a grim reaper.

    How did these come about actually?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    The first time I saw a grim reaper sign, I thought someone had painted it on. Until I saw more...

    And also, it must be noted how diseased the children on those signs look...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 470 ✭✭jono087


    omg! dat is the freakiest thing i'v ever seen, and to the untrained....eh.....sign reader that could quite plausibly have a very sinister meaning...... :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Zounds


    wow, that's so weird, what's the deal?

    /edit: there are trained sign-readers?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 466 ✭✭Caoimhe


    Does the sign really have a little lantern and everything? This country is weird...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 98 ✭✭Fabulo


    I can just imagine politicians sitting around a table, declaring, "We need to allocate more funds to the grim reaper sign development process!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭Matthewthebig


    Its a sticker you put over the woman! fools


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    but.........does the one person put them on signs al over the city (Is it just Dublin that has them?) or is it some group thing or coincidence that random people decide to put a grim reaper sticker over the woman?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 602 ✭✭✭edibility


    One would imagine a group effort, as manufacturing individual identical stickers by accident, then using them in the same way, is mildly far fetched.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Tell them I love them. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 470 ✭✭jono087


    Here's an idea, get a picture with your camera phone of the most fake id's possible with the one name/picture on it! .............,............


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭lemur option


    Congratulations purple fist mixer you have completed step 1 and found the grim reaper sign, that was fast I've still to think of more bounties so for now everyone keep trying for the cinema screen. It's not the flash you should worry about some cinemas have camera detection technology and some are just lazy..........


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


    Oh goody. Well, didn't get out due to the snow but I'm getting that sign next time I'm in the cinema.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭lemur option


    <<EDIT>>REPEAT TWENTYFIVE TIMES AFTER ME

    I WILL NOT ENCOURAGE VANDALISM OR ILLEGAL ACTS.
    I WILL ALSO ATTEMPT TO SPELL VANDALISM CORRECTLY FROM NOW ON.

    geddit?

    <<crash_000>>


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 470 ✭✭jono087


    but it's sooooo fun,


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭lemur option


    This is a formal apology to anyone who sees putting a k on a for sale sign to make it a fork sale sign as vandalism I hope you will accept this apology and I would like to announce that no points will be awarded for a pic of a fork sale sign. The same applies for the "to let" to "toilet" sign. I'd also like to apologise for my crude spelling. Why apologise? cos I'm really a nice guy.


    Now for the points system since it also got deleted

    points will be awarded for each bounty

    purplefistmixer got 4 for the reaper sign

    and there is 8 available for the cinema screen (which is harming no one!!)

    I am yet to think of more bounties so please give me ideas for them via priv mesg.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,745 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    hurry hurry and try not to restrict it to something only dublin people can do

    It seems that there is a scissor and comb imprint in the pavement in certain areas of town (Dublin)this intreges me.

    I'm offering a bounty of 5 for this pic
    And will give Zounds 2 points for suggesting it if this is in fact true

    sorry colhol I konw it's mainly for dublin people but living in dublin myself I am surrounded by possibilities for dubliners but feel free to suggest one for your area for points!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Zounds


    so, how many people read where the comb and scissorses are before he edited it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Only if there is a quad in Mexico, and a giant concrete phallus disguised as a watertower.
