    I'm not talking about AH or having a bit of banter. It's to be expected and it can be a good laugh! But it seems alot of the time when a question is asked or advice is sought on boards people feel the need to give opinions where they aren't needed or think that they know EVERYTHING and that their opinion and advice is THE only advice that should be followed and you're an ass for not already thinking of it. I wonder are these people the ar$eholes they appear to be in real life or is it just the keyboard and anonymity that bring it out?! Boards used to be very handy for some helpful advice from a stranger or finding out something but lately it's just somewhere to be treated like an idiot for not already knowing everything!

    "Pshew."
    "Cooshaw."
    "Fushoo."

    These are fun onomatopoeic* words.

    If you disagree: Fuck you.



    *May not be onomatopoeic.

    We're dicks! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks.
    And the Irish people are pussies.
    boards.ie is an asshole.

    Pussies don't like dicks because pussies get ****ed by dicks. But dicks also **** assholes. Assholes that just want to **** on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can **** a asshole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is they **** too much or **** when it isn't appropriate. And it takes a pussy to show them that. But sometimes pussies can be so full of **** that they become assholes themselves. Because pussies are a inch and half away from assholes. I don't know much about this crazy crazy world, but I do know this. If you don't let us **** this asshole we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in ****.

    yeah see you're the very kind I'm talking about. I don't mind a good discussion with different opinions. It's all good. The point is some times people don't want opinions, they want A FACTUAL ANSWER eg: ""yes, you'll get that in Argos." It's the people that come along and say "well why haven't you looked in the Argos catalogue?" that I'm talking about.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,562 ✭✭✭✭Sunnyisland


    In all fairness OP,Its the likes of boards where you can get a lot of different and 100% opposite opinions,Can you just imagine if we all agreed with each other .......................

    All joking aside.
    1. Thats the net for you.
    2. Thats After Hours especially (besides other possible sections).
    3. If anyone IS genuine, in amid the crappy replies, you will find some gems of answering posts (hopefully).
