    I'm tired. I misread that as a double wet bed and Nazis.

    Masturbation is natural, there's no need to feel guilty about it.

    Anyone else think the colour scheme of the new library site is hideous? They should either change it or change the image of the long room they use because brown and turquiose do not a pretty combo make.

    Learn CSS, it's pretty easy.

    Add a filter for http://www.tcd.ie/tms/t/library/img/h-inner.jpg in AdBlock, and use

    @-moz-document url-prefix("http://www.tcd.ie/Library/") {
    .h {background : <whatever colour you want>!important;}
    }

    Eg
    @-moz-document url-prefix("http://www.tcd.ie/Library/") {
    .h {background : #0e6bae!important;}
    }
    

    Use that in Stylish.

    Or if you have your own 950x56 image you'd like to use, you can convert that to base64, or link to it locally, and use that instead.

    Ouch on the laptop theft. I'm guessing he doesn't have a backup even if it's a week behind what he had on the machine..

    Moan, tiredness.

    Nobody has had a rant in 10 days? Shame on you all.

    Personally I'm sick and tired of groups of 50+ feckin (spanish, american, fat & generally very annoying) tourists clogging up front/fellows square. Having the pleasure of repeats mean library most days, so having frequent contact with said tourists is really getting on me tits.

    Moral of the story I guess is to not fail, hence not have to deal with them in August:mad::mad:

    Report the email to ISS, the person should to removed from the list. Some people are too fuking stupid to allow on the internet. I bet they respond to those "AIB please give us your access codes" emails.

    You're having a laugh, class reps can't say that.

    I call for their immediate dismissal.

    Your class rep, (who due to the new constitution is still the class rep till the nominations open in Sept/Oct) is using the class lists for referendum propoganda?

    Man...some people need to do more with their summers.

    Oh no... I left my email logged in and someone hijacked it.

    A class rep like that makes your position on the students' union a lot more understandable.

    Was out for a smoke when this happened and heard after that the class rep in question left his email open while on an errand and one of the lads thought it was a fine practical joke... A harsh way to learn to sign out of your email.
