    They won't get jail but they deserve a good public shaming. What utter imbeciles. And your attitude of "ah sure it's grand I did the same myself", isn't helping their case or making you look particularly great either.

    It. was. eggs. Slightly worse then throwing snowballs during their route at 3am, excuse me if I don't get as outraged as you.

    Hopefully Shane gets into the army

    A youth blinded a nurse in one eye by "egging" her from a passing car, Dublin Circuit Criminal Court has heard.

    The victim incurred medical expenses of nearly €12,000 and claimed she had lost earnings of €1.5m -- as she was planning on returning to work as a nurse but could no longer do this.

    ( She was forced to have her eyeball removed two years later. )

    Ha. You beat me to it (see what I did there :pac:)

    I remember this being in the news at the time. People think it's hilarious to throw eggs but it's far from harmless. I know someone whose brother in law lost an eye after being hit by a golf ball.

    That doesn't mean that there isn't the risk of a person getting hit by an egg :mad: And who is supposed to clean up all the fragments of shell and egg goo?

    Nobody beyond the age of 5 thinks this is appropriate or acceptable. It's stupid. And if this is how they carry on at work then maybe they're not mature enough for employment.
    Anyway I'm not sure I want to waste anymore time discussing this with you so ta-ta

    Hopefully Shane doesn't. Imagine arming someone of his mentality.

    these lads friends of yours ?

    ye share a immature mentality issue

    it would appear that the "beating " you took did not have the desired effect and a longer and more savage one is required

    although you seem like the kinda person who would run to the police yourself at the first threat of violence

    The Irish army isn't generally known for being populated with Albert Einstein types. I'd say he'd be welcomed with open arms :pac:

    Totally untrue and a slur on the majority of our defence forces.

    Thank God!

    A piece of toast would've made a better soldier than Einstein.......he was a pacifist.

    As for the hero of the OP's tale, he could point to his egg throwing prowess to indicate his ability at throwing grenades?

    He could also say how he's willing to lay down his life for his country......

    ......or maybe ask to be posted to the artillery.......to be put in command of a battery.......firing shells.......boom! Boom! :D:D

    Ah yeah. It's eggs now. It'll be petrol bombs next. Then pipe bombs. Then thermonuclear devices.

    And it will culminate with 'hurtful names'.
