Hullo, people! The doors are open again, and the first rounds are on the house. The door sign says: QUOTE(minque @ Apr 30 2005, 01:22 AM) This is meant to be a place where you can talk about anything without having to stay on topic. Feel free to ask questions, to talk about the things in your life you like to share with your fellow-members. Or just step inside for a while, have a coffe and a good chat! You may feel free to post whatever you like as long as it is within the rules of the forum. But if the conversation degrades to spam, you will be treated as though you are spamming anywhere else on the forum. This is a thread where you can relax and talk about personal things, but it is not to be used as an excuse to make pointless posts. Please help to keep this alive and well and a place where we can meet and share. Enjoy your stay here!!!  Before digging into the cookie-barrels, though... Behold - and behold ye well - the slightly more elaborate rules addendum. QUOTE(Alexander @ May 29 2005, 11:47 AM) We had intended the coffee shop to be a nice place where people could talk about their daily activities and such, kinda like the Lurkers Lair on the Official Forums. It didn't quite turn out that way though, people have been taking advantage of their freedoms in here, there has been a lot of spamming and even some flaming. We will not tolerate that any longer. So unfortunately we've had to decide to increase the rules for this thread. Of course the normal forum rules still apply, but we'll elaborate here.: 1. No spamming.We consider double posting and posting posts with only a few words to be spam. If you do that your post will be deleter or moved, do it too often and you might receive a warning for it. We also consider chit-chat spam. This forum has a special chat channel for chatting, you're welcome to go there, and chat with other members or with the staff as we're always there, doing it in here is not allowed. The address to that chatroom is: W4O chatAnd for assistence to use a chat like this, I recommend looking over this thread: http://forums.waiting4oblivion.com/viewtopic.php?t=248Or contacting one of the Administrators. 2. No discussion of accounts or warnings.There shall be no more discussion about members, about accounts, about how many warnings you've gotten or anything like that. 3. No trolling.No posting of random nonsense, no posting of irrelevant things, no posting the same thing over and over just to get it noticed, no swearing or flaming. 4. No religion or politics.No discussion about religion or politics is to be had in these threads. If you want to discuss religion or politics, please do make another thread, or if another such thread already exists, please post in it. If you have a question about the rules of the forums, feel free to ask it to either a Global Moderator or an Administrator. If you're unsure if something is fit to post here, it might be. Again best to ask a Global Moderator or Administrator. If you're wondering how we think a Lair or the Coffee Shop should look like, what we do allow, then I recommend taking a look at the Lurkers Lair at the Official Forums.

That would be "Póg mo thón"  As for other examples....take stoo much effort to write them, what with transferring to word in order to add the fadas to any letters that need them

QUOTE(Foster @ May 26 2006, 07:57 PM) It's completely different. At least in my experience of it. The only Irish word I know sounds like (god knows how it's spelt) pog-ma-hone, which is just their way of asking you to kiss their british boat. Why would somebody want to kiss a boat ?

Lol not to my knowledge, but you might think differently lol. I've been told my accent, or whatever accent there is, is pretty cool though lol. And it wouldn't be the kind of accent that makes my english sound weird, because i've been speaking english since i learned to talk, it's my first language. despite being my native tongue, it's Irish that i have to learn in school and amn't even close to being fluent in...damned penal laws...

I have no idea, haven't heard Bono speak in a while  Probably wouldn't though, since many years of smoking adds an odd quality to his voice lol

I've never tried dodgeball. I mean, I've thrown random objects at people with the design of causing them pain/serious injury and considered it a sport, but I've never actually played an offical game.
What do they use for dodgeballs? I hope it's high on the 'ouch' scale of balls:
Ping Pong - Tennis - Foot (Modern) - Golf - Foot (Old) - Base - Basket - Cricket

Nah, the pain might be slightly more acute, but you've got to take area of effect into account.
Of course, all of them depend where you get hit. A tennis ball in the nuts beats a cricket ball to the thigh (though not to the shin).

I think the learning of Irish in school is great! That is a beautiful language .. seems very soft and lyrical to listen to. We've got some Celtic music, I've really not much idea of what they're singing (until you read the album cover translations) ... but they are wonderful for love making. tee hee hee (These are the lyrical ones, not the jig type ... a bit too energetic there I'd imagine.) Now I've managed to embarrass myself.

Awwe Stomach Ache, you guys broke up. Too bad. But good that you're still getting an apartment together. Maybe you'll get back together again, never know. Well, John Corbett has popped up on my friend's section, Geonox will be glad to hear this too. But I am such a noob at this MySpace thing. I must have filled it out wrong because my bio says that I'm single and I don't know how to change it. If Cain sees it he'll probably have a fit. Stomach Ache, I can't find you "Spore Child" in the search function. Please tell me how to do stuff in the controls. I am such a techno-idiot.

Hey, I want to update, too, and draw some sympathy for my compassionate situation! It never donned on me to talk about myself on here before.
So, my Dad ran out of money and moved to a hick-town where I see republican posters all over the place and everyone is either fat, has a mullet or does meth. There's a even a freaking walmart. I reluctantly came with him because my friends are thermos-faces and the cost of living in that county was way too high for me to start at bum level and work my way up to an apartment. I could have done it but I'm under 18 so my dad wouldn't allow it.
So, here, I'm lonely, I don't know anybody, I don't do anything, and I just kicked both a cigerette and a cocaine addiction so I'm pretty much pissed off all the time. My old school is going back on what they told me earlier so now it's a constant war to get my diploma from them. Half the time talking to my principle I want to slap him. The community college here doesn't offer anything I need.
Usually I'm an optimist but for now I'm not. But despite it, on the plus side I still have a lot of alcohol I'm waiting until after the SATs to break into. I have a good amount of money put away for college so I don't have to worry about college money, I got a really high score on the placement test for that community college (Not that it matters, it's just good to know I'm still smart). Honestly, when I think about it if I could make a few friends here I could enjoy myself, I just don't know how, where I would go to do that.
There, I'm done bitching.
