Wait, you mean you don't like hearing someone bang on about God in a monotone Bray accent? You philistine.

Jesus I think monotone is probably being kind! And if I'm honest I'd nearly get over the god shiiite...but foooook me...is it E-flat she's stuck in?

I wonder if there's a medical explanation!!

I've just spent 20 minutes laughing at gifs of this baseball mascot.

Just downloaded Magnus Carlsen's chess app, in which you can play against a version of him at various ages, starting at 5 through to 13 (when he became a grandmaster) through to now (he's 25).

Let me tell you, there are few things as humbling as being check-mated by a six and a half year old.

Its not that bad when it's possibly the greatest chess prodigy of all time! If it was just a random kid that picked up the game a few months ago, then maybe

I go checkmated by my 6 year old daughter and I only taught her how to play the day before. I couldn't even pretend I let her win.

Of course you could. Lying to children is easy.

The perfect time to tell her the truth about Santa and the Easter Bunny.

Oh man, she was never buying that flying reindeer crap. I won't say she's cynical but...

Ireland wants to bring in a law. 11 countries object, Ireland have to respond to each one to tell them why we should be able to pass a law in our own country. I'm surprised this isn't the sort of thing the Leave campaign in the UK aren't jumping all over but they seem to miss these opportunities preferring to rely on wild speculation and demagoguery.

It is a bit mad that alcoholic drinks don't have a nutritional break down on them

It's very annoying.

CatFromHue · 29-05-2016 05:33PM

Bulmers light and Orchard's Thieves light both have their calorific breakdown on them. This just makes me wonder what actually is in them as it appears to be nothing!

Is it just me or is the rugby forum becoming more and more tedious. There's a ridiculous amount of trolls and putting them on ignore doesn't work because so many people quote and reply to them. Someone arguing in one of the threads that Joe Schmidt cost us 2 grand slams ffs

You're not wrong. The problem with the ignore list is that the 'view post' button is still there too. The ignore function should be a full ignore imo, unless it's a mod on the forum they mod.

I feel I am guilty of engaging with them too much. (Hopefully not of being one myself!)

There seems to be a lot of new names I don't recognise that have appeared since the weekend. I don't want to connect them all to Connacht's win but they seem to be beating the same drum.

mfceiling · 30-05-2016 02:25PM

The lads in work today seem to like fm104. I don't believe I have ever heard a worse selection of music in my entire life....Truly brutal.

I turned it over to txfm at lunch and they went mad and told me to "turn off that rave sh*te". Suppose it's only another 90 mins to home time...

I've noticed that about the new names. I think you're right that it seems to have increased since the pro12 final. There seems to have been 2 influxes. Smug Connacht fans and people calling for Leo's head in the Leinster thread.

I've also noticed that regular posters seem to be a bit narkier, getting pissed off at some of the sh1t that is being posted. I find myself skipping over loads of posts these days

I couldn't handle any radio station in work

Shame TXFM are on the way out.

Dublin lacks a radio station that plays classic rock, heavy metal, grunge and punk.

Podge_irl · 30-05-2016 07:28PM

Nova is what I listened to back in my Dublin days.

The star of the new Spanish prison drama "locked up".

The show is great so far (2 episodes).

awec mentioned all the tits on GOT. So he should enjoy this.

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 30-05-2016 09:41PM

Can anyone recommend some TV shows with a lot of penis in them?

Mmmm penis.

Penis. Penis. Penis.

mfceiling · 30-05-2016 10:31PM

All I know about tele is that while most of you watch really cool American dramas or epic "fantasy" series, I am sitting here watching Made in Chelsea.

I genuinely have no idea what it's about. I've been told to keep quiet as I'm asking too many questions. Are they actors? Is it scripted? Am I real? Where are the biscuits?

An appropriate question given you're watching the heir to the McVities biscuit empire laze around Chelsea.
