    A victim? Honestly who gives a dam? It's an over-hyped mess of a night is all it is.

    Would have been better to get a few trays of beer down the gym hall if you ask me!

    Yep, me and three of my mates went to a debs on our own with no date if you will.

    Best Debs i ever went to. And met a nice lady friend i'm still very good friends with at it.

    Went accompanied by lovely ladies to three others but they just didn't top the first one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    All my stupid friends are going in couples, so when they all go off to shag each other I'd be all alone. Also the debs is shite so I'm just going to town with other friends on the night..

    I took my mate who went to a different school. We caused mayhem and both pulled other fellas dates =o

    Two guys i know went on their own.
    The first did it because he was too stingy to pay for a second ticket and ended up copping off with my mates date.
    The second went on his own because he had/has no social skills whatsoever and never asked a girl, or maybe they just declined his invitation. Who knows.

    Everybody fooks off with their mates after they get their photo done. Sure, I went with my BF at the time, and we spent half the night separately, with our friends anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,119 ✭✭✭Wagon


    I was going to go by myself and have a laugh with my mates. Then i met a girl at a party and i bought her. then she got off with my best mate. Lousy night and really regret bringing someone.

    Went to a predebs as well. That night started great and i was having a great time. Then my girlfriend dumped me.

    I ****ing hate debs.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,351 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    No I brought someone. Doesn't really matter though as I only went to get hammered. Would have preferred to go minker drinkin' in a field though.

    Soliciting is illegal, y'know! ;):pac:


    Sorry to hear about your bad Debs experience though.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada


    Oh the Debs. Cant even remember that far back. Which is scary, Im only 25. All I remember is me and some mates trying to stack shot glasses from the table to the ceiling. We got very drunk and some twat knocked them over.


    All that drinking for nothing!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,536 ✭✭✭Mark200


    I wasn't really bothered about going to mine. I didn't have a date, but I didn't really try that hard to get one because I hated a lot of people in my year so I didn't see the point in going out of my way to attend an event with all of them there. The only reason why I wanted to go was in case something epic happened at it that my friends would talk about forever, and also the "oh what was your debs like in 6th year?" questions in the future... but then one of my friends (female) said she'd go with me so I went.


    Shit night was had by all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Pighead will always associate his debs with this stuff.

    The spanners in charge of organising the evening had decided to ban beer and all other alcohol except for the cute innocent looking bottles of 20/20. Bad bad mistake. The stuff was rocket fuel and everybody in attendance went bananas. The teachers ended up covered in puke and apparently the DJ was kidnapped and tied to the football posts out back. They reintroduced beer for the following years event.

    A victim? Nope.

    At the time I was heartily sick of the wimmins and their machinations, the Debs fell in the middle of a voluntary seven-month celibate phase. :D

    Decided to go alone, wasn't going to bring a date just for appearance's sake. Without the hassle of attending to an over-done harridan in a modified tarpaulin, I had a brilliant night.

    I rallied a table full of glum looking singletons who hadn't had the choice of bringing a date or not. Think Braveheart in a rental tux and you're on the right track.:p Instead of crying into their mass-produced Baked Alaska, they embraced their singleness too.

    Moral of story: Think of the Debs as an overdressed disco, smeared with noxious fake tan. Bring a date, or not. Don't invest too much signifance into it, you're not Marty McFly's dad and it's not your bloody Prom nite.:D

    Did they slow dance together?

    BTW, i went with my gf at the time. It sucked and was boring. By 2am i wanted to go home. For the money it cost, I would have been better booking a table in a restaurant and hotel room. Then i could've had a romantic and sticky night instead of looking at idiots trying to dance and sing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,798 ✭✭✭Local-womanizer


    First time,the date pulled out 2 hours before.All the better,dident have to look after her so I got really drunk and ended up topless at the end of the night.

    Second time went smoothly,apart from the fact I spent all my money on drink and couldent get home and I ended up in the toilet bowl all-night.

    Ah to be young:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    I think I would have had a better time on my own... I brought my boyfriend at the time... He complained all the way down to Navan in the limo "the musics too loud, I don't like that guy your friend brought". I nearly didn't get in because he refused to be searched by the security guards (checking for drugs). And then he disappeared off for most of the night... ah well!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,330 ✭✭✭niallon


    Was all set to go on my own until talking to one of my friends close to the time we realised we were both going on our own so myself and herself went on a sort of "Sure why not?" deal. It was great, when I think back to the amount of people who probably broke up on the night of or soon after their Debs and probably don't care to reflect upon it now I've the opposite, a great night that was simply about saying a final farewell to school bretheren and the few teachers that were in anyway decent at their job!

    And accidently due to drunkeness and tiredness putting sugar on my chips in the LeisurePlex in Tallaght...

    For a second I thought political correctness had set foot inside AH.

    Didn't go to my own but went to my OH's and the best part was the after party where the guy throwing it ended up having to call the guards to get everyone out of the house.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,244 ✭✭✭AntiRip


    The debs is the biggest load of ****e ever invented in my opinion. No drink at my one. I also went on my own because I saw at the time girls didn't give a damn who they went with, they only wanted to dress up and saw it as the biggest thing since sliced pan. There I was, drinking a glass of coke (Been drinking since 15) so me and a few mates f'ed off into town for a real night out. Scored that night too with an older woman! Must have been the tux :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,143 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Didn't go to the debs. Most of the people in my year were arseholes and the last thing I wanted to do was spend an entire night with them.

    As a new singleton, I don't have any plan on bringing a girl for the sake of it in September, especially after this thread. I might even ask my mint biology teacher for the photo if I grow a pair over the summer, who knows?
