I hate the dentist, cant remember the last time I went. Although I am the same with doctors. I'm one of these people that if it aint hurting me enough to stop me getting out of bed then it isn't worth worrying about.

ShiverinEskimo

I had that opinion until recently. Then my brother in-law went for a checkup after 4 years, no pain or anything, just thought he'd make the effort.

4 months later he's had two root-canals and about 3 fillings. The dentist told him that every root-canal starts with a small cavity that may not cause any pain.

The filling I'm getting next week is on a tooth that has never given me any problems.

I've been avoiding the dentist for a few years now. I know i'm going to have a ****load of work needed and probably a face full of metal as well..

yep me too, made an appointment a few months ago but ended up playing golf instead of going:o

The idea of going to the dentist scares the hell out of me, its been quite a while since i last seen one.

Ive been twice since getting my first ever filling, i thought there was a problem with the filling as it was making my tooth hurt like hell so i went back a week or so later and the dentist told me its fine, its just settling in.

abbout a year later the tooth containing the filling quite litarally exploded, the dentist i went to that time told me that the other guy had put too much filling material ino the cavity and ****ed not only that tooth, but the one next to it up completely.

I now look like a celtic fan(:p) and have a real fear of the dentists....

Did you sue? Surely you would be entitled to a hell of a lot of compensation if you ended up looking like a celtic fan.

You didnt happen to tell the dentist you were a Rangers fan before you went in did you???:D

My dentist (well the guy i last went to) was a friend of my dad's who would ask me questions while his fcuking hands were in my mouth!!

ShiverinEskimo

lol- amazing how dentists expect you to hold a full conversation while they have drills, mirrors, needles and a pair of hands down your gob.

Craic lads, just home from my last exam, finished now, hittin town tonight, Ill be sobering sometime aroun Monday!! Wish me luck!! :cool::D

I had the most kick ass weekend ever in madrid at a rock festival.didnt sleep the whole weekend (well fri and sat nite, had to come back to england on sunday) stayed up boozing both nights. (tapped out for an hour or 2 sometime sat morn!)
Seen Rage Against the Machine, a life long ambition and it was so worth the wait.
Ended up being so plastered on Sunday morn that meself and 2of the lads were tackling me into big massive bins in the campsite cos we were still in "Munster" mode from the session in Cardiff the week before.....actually that was quite a week all round.

Now to try and motivate myself to "work"............iv nothing to look forward to!

Saw them years ago in Ireland and they were top class. Around the time of Evil Empire i think it was.

They're playing during the summer again. Don't know if i'll make it thou cause have something going on that weekend.

Have to dig out some albums again. On a side point Radiohead are getting a lot of airplay on the radio at the min cause they have a greatest hits album out and are touring. I don't mind what the reason for it is, but the more Radiohead being played, the better imo..

Yeah it was quite amazing.....bit more my cup of tae than elton john (sorry i cant let ya forget that one!)
Ah it was excellent. really enjoyed it. Myself and 2 lads i lived with in college went over. Was unbelievable. We were right up the front too (well just behind the pit) but it was still savage.
I posted this picture on the rock/metal forum of how they came on stage and performed bombtrack, the crowd just went insane....says it all really:

patmac

Was in Kitzbuhel(Austria) and met the Kerry manager Pat O'Shea who was involved in a GAA exhibition and afterwards I met Ronaldo in the VIP tent and he told me he was definitely moving to Real Madrid and the deal was done, and then the alarm went off, but remember you heard it hear first(or 207th).

Are you on about the sex and the city film or radio head

Seriously man, bring mp3 or something to sex and the city, cos the bull that they will be talking on screen and the turkey talk of 200 women in the cinema will drive you demented!
Actually i wonder what are the odds of the wimmin staying quite during the movie?

Not by me. It's my favourite word to describe those of a homosexual nature. It's the business.

I dunno Xavi, lookin at some flowers or lookin on as a bunch of spastics dress up as their favourite characters and sit there yelping all through. And then theres the film itself which if the show was anything to go by, will be more tedious than waiting for Ronaldo to make up his mind, and of course, then there is the shame of having gone to see it .... although Id expect abuse in equal measures for going to look at flowers - though u could at least pretend you're contimplating a career in botany!!

Both man, SATC could possibly be the most annoying craze in human history. Id rather sit at home alone staring at the wall than sit throught that drivel.

Hmmm there are a few, but this could quickly be considered a "hate thread" if we start into that!! Ill just list one more and keep it understated......Benny!

At least when a wall looks old, you can paint it and it will look good. The SATC birds.....the painting etc doesn't have the same effect.

They have always been wrecked though, the only thing that couldd save them is Eva Longoria...now if they did a Desperate Housewives movie, with an 18's cert...Id go...with the headphones!!

John Mason

OMG - i an so sick of hearing all this SATC shi.te and now even the soccer heads are talking about it.

its a sad, sad day :(

Mr Alan

Thats no excuse, I would have said no! I bet Diane only asked u out of sympathy cos u were sittin there givin them the puppy dog look fishin for an invite!!! :pac:


Em, I disagree, I find they put me on a downer. They are preety good if you're in the right mood, but I dunno if Id retain the will to live after watching a whole show!

But thats why music is so good, its all about opinions!


Im suprised you're not listening to Girls Aloud and that sorta thing being that you're goin on a "team night" to see SATC!! Go team!

~Rebel~

Al, to even this one out i think your gonna need to have sex with at least 3 of your co-workers (and male ones don't count..)


On the topic of movies, I went to see 'Funny Games U.S' yesterday. Most disturbing movie i've ever seen i think. no gorefest or cheap 'jump' scares, all very slow deliberate psychological stuff. Very well made movie, even kind of chastises you around the middle for being a sick **** paying in to watch it..
