..People who insist on using text speak, even in emails. I mean, it takes bloody longer to use that than to type properly. They need to be rounded up and beaten with a sack of dictionaries. Gah!

I agree it takes longer.. thus in emails it has no place other than to identify muppets. However in actual texts when one is a student and has no money [enter ApeX], it is quite useful..

Pet · 28-09-2005 11:47pm

Yes. I agree. My text messages are almost vac-packed. It'd be something like this: "hi thr,got2go2twn4sum cds,ill meet u l8r@d new pc shop" etc.

But in an email where there is no limit on characters - muppetry!

Time Magazine · 29-09-2005 12:22am

I heard Eircom are bringing in character limits in emails.

Agent Smith · 29-09-2005 12:25am

that would not surprise me

ApeXaviour · 29-09-2005 12:33am

As bad as eircom are I don't believe that for a second. It actually makes no sense

Time Magazine · 29-09-2005 12:39am

Joke.

fade · 29-09-2005 12:59pm

Yes!

Stupid pink student cards! A whole year with pink. BAH!

Zachary Taylor · 30-09-2005 3:56pm

Pink? Don't we have a Student's Union for exactly this reason, to make sure that a situation like this doesn't arise?

Agent Smith · 30-09-2005 10:22pm

pink seems to suit you myth,

wheresthebeef · 01-10-2005 12:01am

are they pink for everyone, or just like returning (aka 2nd 3rd 4th) students or something?
I am starting Junior Freshman on monday.

Pink is just too chav-tastic.

Ron DMC · 01-10-2005 12:27am

YAY Pink!

ZWEI_VIER_ZWEI · 01-10-2005 1:24am

Chav-tastic?? I wouldn't have associated chavs with the colour pink.

01-10-2005 2:25am

Pink for undergrads, postgrads, schols students, people in the SU...the pink is here to stay, for everyone it seems. Well for a year. And no, pink does NOT suit me!!

snorlax · 01-10-2005 11:25am

goes with my runners

! and possibly the BESS faculty

Crash · 01-10-2005 1:11pm

Pink for teh win

ah god my friends in other colleges are gonna slag me about this, but i just think its cool

Pet · 01-10-2005 3:24pm

Oh NO! It'll TOTALLY clash with my outfit!

Chick · 02-10-2005 12:44pm

Oh come on, how is pink any worse than last years gaudy orange card...!

(Yay pink!

)

I feel like I've been back at college forever, it'll be good to actually signs of other human life next week.... It's so strange with the place being so deserted

Nietzschean · 02-10-2005 2:31pm

best one we've had since i started was blue...... then green , then the orange, and the worst one obviously being the pink...

fade · 04-10-2005 12:53pm

bloody hell,

so its a new fresh week, i come into work, you know, all ready to start a new set of measurements. ace. right lets go.

but NNOOOOOO, it seems that the device i need to use istnworking and the guy responsible for it desnt seem to want to answer any emails, the bastard is probably off being belgian somewhere, the ****.

so im stuck in work, with nothin to do, ive already gone over all the results ive got, tweaked them to my satisfaction. and now, ive got nothin to do, absolutely nothin, but i cant go home, it would look bad.

so i browse the internet, every now and again posting my frustration here and in other threads.

for a company with over 1000 people workin for it, and with 160million budget every year, they sure know how NOT to get anything done.

Yeah, the blue was my fave too. It had a nice jaunty happy feel about it. The pink one isn't too bad, it's far better than the headache inducing, vitamin C enriched orange ones.

Couldn't go out tonight for two reasons:
1) My head was splitting from last night (I was vehy vehy drunk).
2) My gran isn't the Mae West this weather so I thought I'd stay home with her and make sure enough cups of tea were being made.

On the plus side I got to see my girlfriend for the first time in nearly two weeks.
