The General Hip-Hop/Off-Topic Discussion Thread

I'm still not entirely sure what Spotify is all about.

Ah, Hip Hop....

Christ, I used to love it back when I was 17.

How times change. Enjoy it guys, because one day you'll wake up when you're older and think "god, that song is all about murder or theft" etc etc...

Not something I would ever want to condone or be associated with. And here's a heads up, lads...don't blast that stuff in your cars when you're driving around. You might think it makes you look cool or whatever, but the rest of us just think you're a flaming eejit and perhaps a sign of low intellect which, depending on ones taste in clothing, can only reinforce that assumption.

Don't say Yousef didn't help you out. Okay, have a good one.

:rolleyes:

Reading the first two lines of his post, I thought he was gonna do his own version of I Used To Love H.E.R.

Sadly after losing a very good friend today, he was only 16. Massive biggie fan.

Rest in paradise Rory Dell.

Sorry to hear that.

Loads of college work due next week so I'm giving up my weekend to get most of it finished, haven't had a proper night out for a few weeks because of it so next weekend will be the start of my Christmas sessions. Always leave my shopping til Christmas Eve so not worrying about that for a few weeks. Have to plan a 12 pubs night too...love drinking around Christmas time, everyone's in a festive mood :pac:

Everyone I know just gets pissed for the Christmas period. It's a great laugh. Can't wait to watch loads of films too. My dad and I have a tradition of stuffing our faces with food and watching The Godfather together. I'm excited for that.

Work work and more work the sooner I've enough money to get out of this dump of a country next summer the better.

Iv set a side Stephens day,staff and team nights out etc but that's about it for me , it's the only time of the year I'd really drink but this year the funds are low and tbh I hate Xmas for a personal reasons.

Yes I am the grinch

Where do hope to go next year?

Leaning towards oz because a lot of my mates are there and a few more are going in the next few months but I'm also really considering Canada, it appeals to me more but the only minus is I'd be on my own there. The taught of being so close to America if I ever wanted to venture down there is what's really drawing me in !

Everyone is in Australia! I know a couple of people who've gone already and couple of others who are planning on leaving in the next year or two. I'm actually mates with an Australian girl and she was telling me only today actually that there are so many opportunities for young people there and that loads of Australians are sticking around. It seems to have survived the recession for the most part.

Don't know much about Canada, but I do know the US is pretty fcuked.

Tell me about it ! Iv lost a good chunk of mates to the place. Ye it does seen to be booming along with that comes the high cost of living though because it is fairly expensive there.

The plan is to try and get some sort of lucrative work anyway that's worth my while like out in the mines in Perth or even if I opt Canada there's oil rigs ,fields , mines that pay very very well but your taking 12 hour shifts 3 weeks straight type of stuff... You'd earn your money in that line of work for sure.

What's your plan for the Xmas anyway and the near future ?

Christmas will be eating, drinking, baking, sleeping. Just a chilled out time, basically. I like just lounging around the house, watching loads of films and baking shortbread biscuits and things like that. I'll be going out a lot and meeting up with friends, cos I haven't seen most of them in months, some of them the best part of a year. So it'll be a Christmas of reunion! My mam is saving all the decorating part until I get back because she wants us to do it together (she's a bit sentimental).

Then in the new year I'll be back in Spain again. I'll probably do a bit more travelling at some point whenever I feel like I want to step away from college. I want to spend some time in Oregon at some point. I have family there, and I'd really like to see more of them and also experience Portland, which I hear is an incredibly cool city. If I can keep my money together, I might do that in about a year.

Finished exams about a half week before xmas day...those days before will just be given over to much needed sleep and hangover recuperation. Christmas day with the folks and brother. Visiting neighbours and nearby cousins. Normally we go to Kerry on Stephens day to visit more close cousins....come home to Cork that evening and get absolutely rattled Stephens night with the lads from home which is something I haven't done in months....rinse and repeat I expect. I'm off all January so I'll probably be doing nothing much except having a laugh with friends and such from home and college. Must start on lesson plans though cuz I'm back in school the second week I'm back in college.

Should be crazy.

Thankfully no trouble with the law, but I'm going to be in trouble with my friends when I see them later. But I had my fun and that's all that matters. Hope everyone else had a fun St. Stephen's Day/night!

Went to Kerry yesterday to visit the cousins we've down there...we do this every Stephens day...came back to Cork and got ready to go out in like 20 mins....ended up playing poker with the lads and a few random people in the lounge of this jammed pub and was up €170 before we headed to the nightclub fairly early...club was sh*t so I left and met up with a few people I hadn't seen since the summer outside without telling the lads who were fairly worse for wear...hopped into a car where these people were in cuz they said they were on their way to a club...I presumed this was Cork city or something...seemed like ages we were in the car until I realize we're in Kerry. Spent about two hours in this place in Killarney before making our way back to Cork at God knows what time...only dawned on me then that I left my phone somewhere...Rang one of the lads off a girls phone and had to listen to him for like 10 mins in a cranky sleepy voice asking "where the absolute f*ck did you end up last night?"...told him the scéal and before I could ask about had he seen my phone he said he had it...got a spin home to my gaff and got me Da who was just about to leave for work to drop me to my friends house on the way to get my phone...spent a few hours there and came home....not even a wink tired....serious night lads serious night

St Stephens night was a mess, my bird was outta town so i spend it with the boys, before i knew it i was on a harbour 2 miles away from my house with a bottle of vodka, 20 silk cut (i dont even smoke) and 2 completely random people. Woke up and there was about a hundred quid in my pocket covered in curry sauce, i dont even know.

St Stephen's night is always the best.

Hope everyone had a good one last night! Had a great time myself. Happy new year to one and all!
