Re: hands up who’s having a shit summer in Chit-Chat

Dismal to say the least. I work on a farm for a living so it’s pretty shit when you can’t do much because you’re waiting for the ground to dry up.

Dismal, lol I like it

hands up who’s having a shit summer in Chit-Chat

What a shit summer! Shit weather, recession everywhere and fuck all football on the box!
Ireland’s new “tourist” tax means that hopping over to the Netherlands is chipping into my bank balance, the weather over there is pretty shit too, or at least only when I’m there.
More bombs in Spain, Teenagers murdered in Tel-Aviv, Plane crashes and whatnot

Only highlights have been Psychoville on the box, T? blinder at the Academy, and Charles “Cannibal” Taylor defending himself in the International Criminal Court.

Is anyone else waiting for it all to end? Is it me or are summers getting progressively shitter these last few years and it’s now the winter we look forward to?

Re: song titles as days of the week in Chit-Chat

Yeah Thursday by Morphine is a great tune, was just listening to it last night after finding the CD after missing it for two years!

What about Bloody Sunday from Stiff Little Fingers? that should get precedence over U2’s overblown bullshit. (ironically, being from the north and quite a political band, SLF’s song is about how boring sunday’s are)

Re: Serious Help Needed!!! in Chit-Chat

what about Movin’ On Up by Primal Scream? I think a bit of funky/gospel-rock/soul would work

“kilts are better…not that you’d wear one to a job interview of course.”

Unless you are confident in your ability to ‘impress’.

Re: Unemployment in Chit-Chat

I worked for Dunnes as well, they weren’t too bad. I worked for Tescos for a month before being sacked for “bringing down morale”…i’m actually proud of being able to bring down morale in Tescos, as if the working conditions, blue red and white bullshit, compnay policy-spewing managers etc. isnt morale-killing enough

“I can imagine Neal working in a sports shop, Andy as a builder and Mikehell would be an unscrupulous wheeler dealer in mirrored shades”

Haha thats excellent!

Cheers guys for your help. You’re right, a positive attitude is half the battle. For a start I’m going to move to Dublin, as there seems to be more opportunities there than in Cork.

Re: Unemployment in Chit-Chat

Hah I would love to work in a bookshop, i have applied to a good few of them in dublin and cork. I’m finishing up my masters in english lit, which is not very vocational, I’m doing it as a stepping stone to a PhD which I hope to start in spetember 2009. Until then, I need money and I’m pretty destitute. I’m trying to call in my debts, (some pals owe me several hundred quid) but that’s not working either. I have to leave my house in four weeks because of cash flow problems, and for the first time in almost five years I will be going home to live with my dad until I can find work.

I tried signing on once, was more grief than getting a job. i’ve a great work ethic but nobody is willing to give a job to someone with little or no experience. And I don’t wanna wear a suit. I worked in a bank for a few weeks and I hated every minute of it.

Re: Brewing Alcohol at Home in Chit-Chat

Make sure you counter-balance it by investing in a treadmill. Its a great bachelor pastime though. That and everything else that doesnt involve women

Re: Brewing Alcohol at Home in Chit-Chat

Re: Teetotalism in Chit-Chat

Everyone should have a vice…(actually that sounds like something Gary Glitter would use on the defence stand)

Re: Brewing Alcohol at Home in Chit-Chat

I made my own damson and plum wine when i was a teenager, took around eight or nine months though. actually turned out good, bit fruity though. my dad makes poitin and sells it but that doesnt interest me. brewing beer and fermenting wine is more interesting, as your brewing for taste as well. a friend of ours built his own bar in his house, using all his own alcohol, he had to get rid of it after a year because of the damage that ensued. Imagine having beer on tap in your kitchen :)

Re: Smug Bastards in Chit-Chat

Does comedy have genres now? Maybe the whole thing about comedy being the new rock n’ roll is true…

Re: Smug Bastards in Chit-Chat

Cosmo Landesman, film critic in The Sunday Times. Not happy with giving The Dark Knight two stars out of five, he gives Hellboy II four out of five and rips into The Dark Knight again… some guys just love to stir the shit

Although I’m sure i will love Hellboy II when i see it

Re: Bad Joke Thread in Chit-Chat

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and
Decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife
Decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors,
And reads her book.

Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman
And says, ‘Good morning, Ma’am. What are you doing?’
‘Reading a book,’ she replies, (thinking,’Isn’t that obvious?’)
‘You’re in a Restricted Fishing Area,’ he informs her
‘I’m sorry, officer, but I’m not fishing. I’m reading’
‘Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at
Any moment. I’ll have to take you in and write you up.’
‘For reading a book,’ she replies,
‘You’re in a Restricted Fishing Area,’ he informs her again .
‘If you do that, I’ll have to charge you with Sexual assault,’ says
the Woman.
‘But I haven’t even touched you,’ says the game warden.
‘That’s true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could
Start at any moment.’
‘Have a nice day ma’am,’ and he left.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It’s likely she can also
Think.

Re: Cheaper rail & bus travel in Ireland in Chit-Chat

Re: Cheaper rail & bus travel in Ireland in Chit-Chat

Kids should be free or half rate anyway. one of the women should have stayed in the rain. what a poorly thought-out line of argument

I don’t think I have a problem, I’ve cut back on drinking and am starting to take health and fitness more seriously.

Re: So what is the cover that you wanna hear in Therapy? in Chit-Chat

I think “Diane” by Husker Du would be a good song for Therapy to cover. I envisage it being played on three xylophones.
