    What I'd do in that situation is just go to the toilet and as you're passing them just smile and say hi.

    They'd expect a confrontation so after saying that they'd be caught off guard and genuinely wouldn't know what to do. I've done it a few times before. It's funny.

    The best thing to do is say hi, start walking past them and then without warning, lamp the last ****er in line with an uppercut. If the others decide to join in, unwrap your plate of headbutt sandwiches and start handing them out.

    Some people ar just arseholes.
    The thing to do in that situation is to find something funny lookin aBOut the other dicks and make sure they hear you laughing at them.

    Reminds me of a nightclub in Magaluf a few years back.

    Myself and a mate were some of the first in, so the music wasn't too loud and without too much difficulty you could hear some chat.

    Passing a group of chic's and I noticed a few checking me out...

    ''Nah'', one said ''All those bodybuilders are gay'', to which my mate took offence .. "Here Martin, did you hear what she said" says Ollie... "Yea Ollie, but your not a bodybuilder - your a little fat cunt WITH a bodybuilder".. :D

    At the foam party I had two of the chic's licking my nipples!.. Gay works :P

    I'M STRAIGHT.

    It's ok to be gay for pay, we understand you have bills to pay.

    If that's the biggest problem your friend has, he's got a pretty soft life

    I'd be visibly upset if I was told i'd cancer, not if some cheap insult (maybe it was a compliment? who knows) was thrown my way by drunken strangers in a pub

    Ok, here's my fifty cents.

    I was at a party for a work-mate recently in a large Dublin pub which shall remain name-less. Anyway, i was there with a number of work colleagues, six or seven of them who happen to be good friends of mine.

    Anyway, the night was going swimmingly, everybody having a few scoops and generally having a good night. As i was heading off to go to the toliet during the night, there was another group of people (not in our company) at the corner of the bar, who i could hear, making various comments about some of the people in our group as they passed by them. Anyway, being as thick-skinned as i am, i heard what was being said, so i decided to ignore these people and continue with having a great night.

    The atmosphere around my table changed somewhat, when a friend of mine from work came back to my group looking visibly upset. He told me that as he was returning back from the jacks, this other group of people had made reference to the fact that he happened to look like somebody 'on RTE TV'. Now, granted this mate of mine looks a bit like this person that they were refering to, but not exactly like him by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, he usually wears his hair short, and when he does he doesn't look like anybody in particular.

    Here's my question...why do people have to be downright cruel to people in such a bad and obviously degrading manner, so much so that they have to insure that the person is within earshot, to get a quick jibe in?

    Some people baffle me sometimes, with or without their beer googles on.:mad:


    The other group are knobs,

    but seriously?
    looking visibly upset
    he happened to look like somebody 'on RTE TV'

    Was this an under 12s pub?

    It's a bit of banter and if you're quick witted enough the last laugh will be yours. He was visibly upset...who did they say Anne Doyle?

    Jesus, please. It's "could have" not "could of".

    Sorry, usually keep it to myself but it's happening on here way too often now.

    *grabs can of beer to release stress*

    sat beside a group of irish girls last night (dubs) and i have to say, even though i know what irish people can be like, i was slighlty taken aback. 6 of them, just sat there all night, sipping their drinks and the looked the most boring girls ive ever met.

    however, their only topic of conversation was to poke fun/pass comments at every other girl that walked past. i mean, they just stared at everybody that walked past their table and then looked at each other after, laughing and joking. some of comments were terrible, especially towards "larger" girls. the stunning girls just got dirty looks, commenting on how slutty they looked. jealously was ripe anyway i tell you.there was an eastern european girl dancing in front of them, slim girl, dressed well and they were just looking at her in disgust, again, just pure bitterness, jealously and bitchyness.

    one girl, literally pointed at every single girl in the place and past a comment. some lad stuck in her later, called her a dirty b@tch and the bouncers f*cked him out. they looked single and judging by their evident lack of personality, they will remain like that for a long long time

    People get upset if they hear they look like someone from the television? Good grief

    Have you read what the topic starter has written?:rolleyes:

    As another member has rightly said, some people are arseholes. Something simliar happened to a female friend of mine some time ago and simliarly she came back to our table visibly upset.

    I find an attitude like yours baffling, it always 'Jesus, relax' or 'Don't worry about it' when it's not you who is at the end of the jibe. There's no need for people to go on with this type of ****e.
    I'm just going to give you the benefit of doubt that you don't have a clue the way boards works! After Hours is not something seriously....and what I said was clearly in the form of a dig at TV3....which if you actually were aware of stuff on boards you'd know is a fairly common insult/jibe target!!!!

    Does your mate look like paudge or rodge???

    Throw poo at these people, that will shut them up.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,217 ✭✭✭✭m5ex9oqjawdg2i

    never had poo "thrown" at me, no.

    unless someone was licking somebodies arse, then licked my face...suppose that would count. it would make sense actually, coz they'd probably be tryin to get the taste of poo out of their mouth by licking my aftershave...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91 ✭✭binhead


    I have one! yea...no wait, this one time....no, wait...yea..no.yes.


    This is ****.
