Yeah and the fact you posted it after mid day makes it even worse.

What's this thing about after twelve?

An ill thought-out joke. UCD was excavated in the 70s to put in those tunnels everyone is always banging on about. In addition, people haven't "struck oil" in the sense of coming across it accidentally since the 1800s. Sorry to wreck your buzz, but try harder next year!

Yep, I accept it was a bad one, what can you expect from a girl who gets her ideas from Saved By The Bell? *hangs head in shame*

April fools jokes are no longer valid after midday which means your just a down right liar

elmyra

What? I didn't know that, genuinely! Aw damn, I'm so blonde!

Not as bad as far as April fools Go.

I didn't know that either, tbh.

Kinda makes April Fool's Day a bit of a misnomer if you ask me, it should be more accurate to call it April Fool's 12 hours...:rolleyes:

Desist from depricating yourself!! When I'm in chivalry mode sit back and take the compliments... I'm usually a scathing and scorpy ould boll**ks!!!!

nursebetty

Welcome to the Lunatic Asylum nursebetty...

Watch out for boneless - he doesn't bite, but he does other... things...

boneless

I never drool on a boardsies first day Seb... I wait at least two days....

arbeitsscheuer

Ah yes, the old "lull them into a false sense of security and then drown them in spittle" approach... Delightful. I must make note of that: Napkins to be provided for all new boardsies 2 days after meeting boneless, so as to avoid... legal problems...

Famous last words-we'll probably see more of you round here with the exams coming up-boards=great study distraction!

I was gonna post an april fools too but then thought meh i cant be bothered.Mine was gonna be that Brady had to resign because of some sort of scandal involving glenda gleeson,I hadnt fully thought it out so thats why I gave up on the idea.

elmyra

Aw that's way better than mine, you should have!

anyone else reminded of that Saved By the Bell episode where they found oil and imagined what it would be like?
A very poignant story..with some dead duck in it.
