    I was born 8 weeks premature, and i'm wondering if I can get an official admission from government that I am actually 8 weeks younger than I am.

    No chance, it's your birth date that matters.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 716 ✭✭✭DamoDLK


    So your birth cert says you were born 8 weeks later than you were?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭brendansmith


    Definitely!! Get that admission! You would be a fool not to!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,850 ✭✭✭Cianos


    You should do everything within your power to expose them for the liars they are...write harshly worded letters, take to the streets, spare no expense - monetary or otherwise, harass the poor men and women of the Joe Duffy telephone operating team daily - the people must know!

    Do you think you can prove the exact date your parents conceived you?

    I reckon the Government might say "Pics or GTFO" tbh.

    So, does this mean you spent thefirst eight months after your eighteenth brithday breaking the law?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I was premature, how do you have the wrong date? Do they not put the date you were born on your birth certificate?

    This particular thread highlights the argument for social Darwinism.

    People join me..

    Take the warning labels off things and let nature take it's course to remove these kind of people from the gene pool..

    :D

    NO... he was born eight weeks premature not eight months, if he was born 8 months premature he wouldn't be here asking silly questions.


  • Registered Users Posts: 817 ✭✭✭bonkers


    thank you all you have been very supportive.

    i have contacted conor lenihan TD and he ensures me that he will bring the general issue up at cabinet as soon as the dail reconvenes

    he is a kind genius

    Thats the man to sort out your problem, maybe he'll recommend they stick you back in the womb for 8 weeks, a few bob in a brown envelope anything is possible, you wont even have to wait for the fuccking idiots to reconvene.
    Hope it all works out ok for you, best wishes to your mother also, hopefully she'll understand, but fair is fair, if you were supposed to be in her womb for 8 weeks more than you were, then what can she say about it really?, she owe's you bigtime.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,342 ✭✭✭Long Onion


    Shouldn't have said anyting to the policiticans, they will be looking for you to repay 8 weeks child benefit etc.

    Skip the conuntry whilst you still can, whilst we will miss your dazzling intellect, I believe Darfur is nice this time of year ...

    Perhaps I can get my 'gonad time' written off so I can call myself 51.

    8 Months early? Thats not premature, thats a stain.

    o_O

    My ma was premature on 5 of her 8 children.

    She always said, "Why wait 9 months, when you can fire 'em out in 8."

    I was a week late OP but I got the date changed on all my things to say I'm actually 6 days younger!!!


    You should definitely go ahead with this! You just have to go to the Tax Office or Garda station, explain your situation and ask for the long stand form.

    Yeah, he could probably put you on to some experts in the lifespan-shortening business.

    So a leaving cert student can get an id that says they're over 18 so they can go drinkin with der m8z!!lolhugsbunnyOMGZZZZ


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 476 ✭✭Nuggles


    No, he was born premature, so he was born early.

    He'd actually have to wait longer to get sozzled legally.

    I bet it's his mother who wants it.

    No.....actually he would legally be able to drink with his m8z 8 weeks earlier, 8 weeks premature means his due date was 8 weeks after he was born, so he was due in October but came into the world in August, so he turns 18 in August and can legally drink in august.
    If he was born on due date he must wait until October to drink legally.

    Ohh God, see above.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 67 ✭✭lin lin


    omg can you people not read??!!!!

    can you not see that nuggles agrees with you and respondds to alan rouge saying:

    "He'd actually have to wait longer to get sozzled legally"

    that means "HE WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE TO WAIT LONGER" if he got the admission that he was born premature

    even the tiny words mean something!!!
