    The thread starter slagged of the Northside by showing a pictire of the riots in O'Connoll Street , im sorry but was there not rioting in Temple Bar , Ashton Key and i may be mistaken but im sure i saw cars ablaze on Nassau St. Im fed up with all this utter crap from stuck up people

    An unfortunate consequence of being besides the liffey.
    Someone has to keep the ranks. God bless the brave souls at the front line.

    The amount of snobbery and exclusion in UCDD is getting ridiculous! People are still hanging around in secluded groups and cliques. If you don't 'fit in' to their criteria of whats acceptable then you can forget about making friends.
    I thought this was the focking 21st century!
    Just because I don't have have black clothes, a black leather coat or long greasy, dirt infested hair doesn't mean I can't be your friend! I really do want to talk about the lefties in the SU and government sanctions for Iran. Its not my fault my parents sent me to an actual good school (i.e. fee paying). Its not my fault I live in a nice house in a nice area and speak with correct diction!

    But these people just won't accept me for who I am. They judge me on looks and sounds. They can't se past the real me. A person who loves death metal and insulting bebo. I have alternative tastes just like them. Why don't they want me? Why can't we all be different together?
    I even tried putting my collar down for those guys and they were just having none of it.
    I asked one totally awesome grunge skater where the next focking lecture was and he caustically replied 'like its 'totally' in d4, mon'.
    I was so scathed I had to drown my sorrows in Kielys and then BT2 for some threads shopping.

    I for one am sick of these cliques who won't accept someone. All day they just bitch about d4s and how they are ruining there college experience by BEING there. Its not my fault we go to college, its not my fault you have to listen to us on the bus or actually STAND near us.

    Why can't they just ignore our simple ways? Let our golf drive past in peace!

    Seriosuly, if you don't like something just ignore it. I hate knackers, so what do I do? I just don't go to the Northside. Simple.

    Although I did venture there the other day. Must say it looked better than I thought it would.

    Youre diction is weak, you read like jello, shaky and green.

    Sangre I feel for you.

    People on boards constantly misunderstand you as a person who rips the pis$ instead of a person who raises real issues for real people.

    Shame on you Panda and shame on everyone else who doubts Sangre's sincerity

    anyone who thinks d4s speak with correct diction is deluded.

    Dorsh, Roish, Doobs, fock, hoyno, scobes, loike, ledge, mon.

    and my personal favorite - Are-Land (meaning Ireland).

    learn to speak you ****ing goons.

    I was going rind and rind the rindabite... Embrace the nuances of Hiberno-English, Ferdi. Basically, we can say anything. Except amn't, because then I'll kill a kitten. (Steven Lynch will tell you why.)

    Stephen, how tall ARE you? You're like a rather tall version of a little kid. I know that sounds stupid, but you know what I mean.

    I'll nurse you back to health! :D

    Anyway, enough of this anti-Northside stuff, we all know that it's fair enough.
    The issue I want to discuss is that of anti-"outside the pale" sentiments which float around UCD.

    Sangre....like to start the ball rolling?

    Why? One undergrad is more than enuff. Besides, do you think I'm made of fcuking money?!?! HELLO, bloke whose never had a job over here!

    Anyway.

    Trinity. A Fine institution of academia held in the highest regard around the world.

    UCD. A complete dog's dinner of a campus with a Fascist for a president who wouldn't know education if it smashed him in the face and said "TEACH THE FCUKERS, DON'T MAKE THEM INTO CORPORATE STOOGES!!!"

    Ahem.

    TCD ftw.

    yeah but "teh grass is always greener" phenomenon. If you were in trinity you'd realise what a ****e hole that place really is. UCD really isnt all that bad.

    And there is nothing wrong with having a fascist for a president. Germany got the Autobahn and full employment , Italy got the Pontine Marshes drained and UCD will reap simular rewards for its loyalty to the fascist ideal.

    You dirrty leftie:D

    ah there's a bit of the "grass is greener" phenomenon in all of us, surely.
    But there's more to it than that.

    Believe it or not, I've been going to TCD and hangin around wit Trinners on a regular basis since 1995, when my bruv started there. Suffice it to say, he finished his degree in 2005. Diligent and efficient are words that don't spring to mind.

    But anyway, point is is that I loved the place, the people, etc etc... UCD was always gonna find it tough to live up to, as, in my eyes, Trinity was and is the summit of Academia in the Republic of Ireland.

    Anyway. That's all I'll say bout that.

    UCD's not as terrifying or difficult to survive as Iraq.

    And that's all you're gettin'!!!:D
