    :D made me smile while studying chemistry, thank you!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,424 ✭✭✭joejoem


    No problem - you made me shudder thinking of back in the day studying chemistry. Man I hated that subject. 6 years since I did my leaving though so I dont remember any of it.

    I took grinds and studied loads for honours chemistry but when the lady came around with the exam papers and said honours or pass, my brain said honours but my mouth said pass. Got an A1 though!

    He is a former Hitler Youth member though.

    As was every other male of the same age at the time. Hitler Youth wasn't exactly like the scouts, it wasn't something you volunteered for. You've also failed to mention that he went AWOL when forced into service.

    I can't stand the guy and consider him a bigot but at least criticise people for their opinions or their actions as opposed to the opinions and actions the Sun want you to believe they hold.

    And yes, today is a special day but I'm not posting why on here.

    05:05:05 05/05/05, and also the fifth day of the week (for those who like the week to start on Sunday). First time something like this has ever happened.. last time would have been 7000 years ago, but they were using a different colander in thum days.

    Next one won't be for another fair few thousand years. Aren't we a lucky bunch?

    I stated a fact, I did NOT criticise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    You criticised by what you left out, not what you posted. To state something like that in isolation from the fact that it was against his will is not giving the full facts.
