The Official "rant/bitch/moan" Thread

I didn't get Halls for next year and I didn't get Schols, so I'll have to live in the real world. Boo-urns. I hope I'm near a LUAS or a DART though, because I don't like buses very much.

I agree, I had enough of buses last year, being stuck in traffic is so frustrating. If I don't get schols next year I'll be living close to the Luas or the DART in third and fourth year.

*is very glad to be living close to the LUAS again next year*

Oh, and anyone who thinks you don't have to stand on Bus Eireann buses; you're wrong. It might not happen as often, but it certainly does happen.

was a frequent event for me in my youth...... busses to shannon airport were busy , stupid tourists,...but on the flip side we normally got the nicest busses in the fleet so when ye got a seat it was comfey...

Never had to stand on bus eireann, thank God. And only once on the train, til all the commuters got out in Tipperary.

Commuting from Tipperary to Dublin or Tipperary to Limerick or where?

Hermione*

IIRC, it was a Friday and mostly people commuting to Dublin from Thurles or Templemore. I was so relieved when they all got off and I could sit down for the rest of the journey to Limerick.

5:15 direct which only stops in templemore n thurlus? like that train....

My rant/bitch/moan for now is the way europerson shortens the word "statistics".

Matthew, it is not acceptable to write Stat.'s. Stop it. Now. Good boy.

But it's the plural of a contraction! I'm going home now, so leave me alone.

Nietzschean

stats on the other hand is quite acceptable and is used by students of the stats dept and lecturers alike

the smae happened with my glasses recently, spent ten minutes looking for them, then went to the Toilet, then relised i was wearing them when i washed my hands...

Pet

Once when I was drunk, I was wearing my contacts, but of course forgot, so I wore my glasses too, and then spent a few hours honestly believing I was going blind.

damn spending too much time online, i was wrecked today, and when i was on the bus, though unlike most people here i quite like the bus but then i do have the priviledge of living on the 46A bus route with an option of 10 bus straight out of belfield so its not quite the same, i found out that i had forgotten my ear phones for my mp3. so left my stuff in the lecky, being in late means no nice desk on the 3rd floor of the ussher, club lecky with its social networking and discussion (gossip) circles were where it was at today, so anyway got on a bus and went home again. as you do for the craic. seems like a slight waste of time with hindsight.

thats not really a moan. it rained but i had an umbrella.

Pet

46A is a privilege now?

Hmm I suppose it does go quite frequently, but it's still a bus like..

I'm slooooowly getting study done, it's like pulling teeth. But it's progress. Hello lac operons, hello homeobox genes. I like you now.

Thirdfox

46A was really slow today (4 o'clock) - there wasn't a bus for at least 25 minutes, in the end I got the 45

I'm saving this post as a future defence, should it ever be required!

I'm so fucking tired, and have so much to do before tomorrow's exam, but I really need to get sleep before an exam for a change, ugh :mad:

They're always on the roof above my window and they fly down and sit on my windowsill and stare in at me while I'm trying to study. Creepy.
