    Young people involves in politics. Student politics in particular.

    Nothing wrong with being interested in it or on the Students Union but they seem to feel the need to let everyone know they are interested in politics.. All...the...time.

    Listening to some students talk about motions of no confidence in their SU officers and accepting resignations.

    Who gives one single shït?

    Self important f**kwits with their annoying overbearing optimism about EVERYTHING, always found the whole process of student politics pretty irrelevant, just go to your lectures and mind your business, most are just doing it to fill the blank space on the CV to look interesting when in fact most of these cretins are boring as f**k.

    :eek:

    Was very nearly going to put 'Boards Mod Type' instead of multi-national type!!!

    Thought better of it:cool:

    Excuse my ignorance but what is a "multi-national type"? Someone from many countries?

    No, no, Mr Y,no it's those 30 something tossers,usually of privileged schooling,who work for multi-national companies,usually techies but with good degrees who take delight in 'dressing down' for events like travel and such.

    You know the type,I'm sure, heading back to the States to the parent co.business class, will rock into the exec lounge in black baggy shorts, tee shirt and lappie bag under the arm and try to exude an air of boredom,whilst subliminally trying to intimidate the more conventionally dressed occupants of the space.

    'Look at me,this is all routine,I'm a rebel-I'm bored'

    Hope that answers your question,apologies for going into such detail, but the end result is- these lads and lasses are ****, in my opinion.

    Hope you agree .

    I would guess it is the guys that work for major multinationals (particularly new tech companies) and who buy into the whole corporate mullarkey.

    I am not allowed discuss …

    ** people who can't disengage from their work-life / career in social situations. They sit in the pub blathering about work, you'd be in danger of getting hit by a tower crane if you sat too close.

    ** people who are obsessed with gossip and others people's personal business. Most people like a bit of juicy gossip but some don't need to hear it they'll make it up.

    ** people who buy husky type dogs as fashion accessories, without doing their homework first and end up not being able to look after them properly.

    ** people who drive vehicles way too big for them to operate in built up areas and who end up causing traffic and blaming everyone else.

    It's good to vent

    Excellent rant. :D

    I give it a good solid 8\10.

    I ended up missing my return train home and we had to wait two hours for the next one. Who arrived on only the same group of students, fresh from a young Fine Gael meeting, I think. Still hyper, still going on about the same old ****.

    My partner threatened to leave me if we didn't sit at least 5 carriages away.. :D she speaks very little English but I guess the smug, irritating schtick transcends language.

    Responding to people fed up with Jobbridge by telling them they're not worthless...just worth less than minimum wage.

    If they're dressing in a casual gear then they're NOT buying into the corporate malarkey. That uniform in the corporate world is a suit.

    That's my whole point Rym, it's a 'look at me I'm a big man in a multinational and I can rock up to the shops dressed like a tosser if I want'

    That's the reason they are ****- because they think they are rebels.

    When in fact they are ****.

    In my opinion:D

    Sorry - get you now.

    Also **** = people who whine about "bosses" and "suits" - GROW UP.

    Gym instructors that prance about wearing a vest and flexing all day AND using the equipment when they should be working,

    Beginning to think being a gym instructor is the easiest job in the world going by looking around the place when I'm having a workout.

    Lanyard tossers.

    The type that swan around with their lanyard around their neck all of the time and act as if they run the place, wearing cheap office clothes and carrying around take out coffee as if it's an accessory. The worst are the ones that are in the pub after with it still on and are all "Just got out of the office ya know?" when it's clearly been 3 hours.

    W*nkers

    It's the time of the once a year drinkers hitting the town and the 12 pubs of Xmas crowd.

    **** going around thinking they own the pubs

    Another thing that grinds my gears is people in town who keep stopping and starting when there walking.

    Tis the most wonderful time of the year

    They've given terrible trouble in my locality over the past few years, terrible trouble. The thing I find is that many students are not good drinkers, they get sloppy, loud and obnoxious, just not able for the stuff. It's possible to consume large amounts of alcohol without behaving like an utter twat and making a complete show of yourself.

    I don't know who's worse. Tossers with the French flag on their profile pics or those who say "what about the Lebanese people, where's their flag?".

    Secondary Students that have a car of their own: Guaranteed to be an absolute tosser.

    Walking, a bike, the bus or getting a lift off the mother not good enough, No??

    People who go on about "entitlement" in contexts other than this, i.e talking about entitlement culture, the youth being entitled, etc. Usually complete **** with no self awareness.

    Urban dwellers who drive 4 x 4s

    Bmw owners in general

    Wearers of shirts with white cuffs and collars

    And finally people who give their kids popular names and spell them in a really stupid way to make them seen more exotic than they are.
