If a picture of me on my graduation is deemed news worthy for the Record I think the Record's in trouble

good work with tn btw, best issue so far this year. btw myspace may be better but have you ever read the end user licence agreement(EULA) it basically says that myspace has the right to sell on information about you to 3rd parties, no thanks to that. bebo all the way...

Yeah fair enough, it's just not a great picture and I don't really like it. Meh.

I'm getting addicted to Facebook btw, don't even want to contemplate bebo at this stage...

I woke up today at 4.30am - that's what going to bed at the reasonable time of 10pm does to me. :mad:

The grammar on my page is awful in the TN this week. Really shi*ty.. But I can explain.

As noted, a few pages back, all the computers bloody restarted on me while doing my article. Woe was I, and what not. Then, when I loaded the computer up, the essay was there! Wallah! Not the case. What transpired was that the computer had AutoSaved a copy of the article before I ran through and edited it. When I write long pieces I just write and write and edit after (try it, you save loads of time). But I didn't check whether the piece I was submitting to be published about 7,000 times was the one I had edited or not . And it wasn't . And it could have been such a great article. .

Sorry about that with the grammar Enda, hope you didn't mind me putting the tint on your box with the lists, thought it just might look better that way.

Hah! Speak for your own article! Although to be fair mine was written in 20 minutes and isn't exactly the greatest thing I've ever done. But the grammar is okay.

little green men?


Bride of chewbaca?


pffft give me the Record any day

I'm tempted to become a crank "letter to the editor" writer for TN

Stargal

Yeah. And what about the picture of Napoleon Dynamite that was used to represent members of Sci-Fi? I thought thought that was especially good.
Je ne regrette rien

Chardee MacDennis

well its unfortunate about that but it was just a dig at a particular person who is no longer in the college but is up in the room a lot... also anyone see we got the second least money per member(being the fifth largest/4th if you only count paying members) - what a rip....

No it wasn't a dig at anyone. I just thought it was a funny photo. It wasn't serious though and I know it's not representative of all the activities that Sci-Fi do.

Agent Smith

some people could see it as Serrious...




/me is not a happy camper

Chardee MacDennis

pretty sure it is a dig at someone - if it was written by the chloe i think it was... preety sure it was a dig in jest though

edit: not the photo but the article

Agent Smith

tbh i'm not surprised at articles like this in tnt, seems to haev gone down hill in the Past year IMHO

who is Sorcha Lyons? and Why does she need to tell us about her current Vibrator and if 3somes are a good Idea?

Stargal

Oh sorry, I was talking about the photo. Yeah it's tall blonde English Chloe who looks like a model. Pretty standard-looking around the Trinity News office (:p)

And Joe, come on. Sci-Fi are one of the biggest and most active societies on college at this stage. Most people know that you're not nerds. The problem is that your name doesn't really do justice to exactly what your society does.

and of course, You know (most) of what i say is in Jest....

Chardee MacDennis

as have to agree with stargal!!! i think thise articles are actually entertaining while misinformed(whoever shes trying to convince to have a threesome is a bottler of the highest rank!!) and i think TNT is actually quite decent.

students do have sex:eek: so why not talk about it?

What do you mean, 'good for business'?

Agent Smith

Sci-Fi isnt Just About Science Fiction, But if people read that and Think "oh they Just Sit around and speak Klingon" and not Join or Go on our nights out....


if you want to discuss this in person, i'll be at the Bottom of House 6 in 3 mins, Smoking
