    4 exams for me - the exams aren't bothering me though, despite this being my final year, it's the bloody projects that are due in the coming fortnight that have me worried!!!

    Im with Kensington, Ill be doing an all nighter tonight. Got a project due in tomorrow at 2. Exam wise only the one during exam time but 2 in the last week of class on the computers. Got given an assignment today now aswel. Hopefully that will be the last of them since I already have 4.

    Why are your posts always saying something negative and having a go at people?

    You must be really alone or something, if you actually had people to go out with you would understand why people do it john47832

    Are you still sore Nerf? I think you are harbouring a little grudge there :)

    You didn't answer the question, you side-stepped it by taking another shot at me,which brings me back to my original question-why do you feel the need to just post negative and smart ass stuff on here?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,696 ✭✭✭mark renton


    Ahh FFS Nerf - I dont know the answer, maybe its because im so good at my job here that I have plenty of time to amuse myself, and actually have a sense of humour

    Now you answer - Are you still sore because I had the cahunas to tell you to complete your course and stop copping out of your responsibilities?

    There are 2 types of people here - those that tell you what you what you want to hear - and those that will tell you the truth

    I have a sense of humour, I guess mine just isn't the type that gets laughs out of taken shots at random people on the internet.

    And to answer your question, yes your reply to my thread did annoy me. I posted my thread to find out specific information. Not to be given some life advice by you. You have no idea my background or reasons for wanting to change/defer course but decided to assume I was just copping out of it.

    So your admitting to creating a thread in order to hear what you wanted to hear - and anybody who suggested anything outside of that was having a go??

    It doesnt work that way Nerf

    Isn't that the idea of boards? You post a thread to find specific information ie hear what you want to hear. That is my understanding of the site anyway. I posted a thread to find the specific information that I wanted to know about transferring courses. I didn't post to ask for some advice on my life in general.

    Now your gettin the hang of it Nerf - If you are attempting to join the righteous club dont contradict yourself

    Ok so now we have established that this is the idea of boards...to post questions for a reply you would like to hear, do you not feel silly for all your responses?

    And yeah I did take a shot at you, but only after you had taken many shots at other people with your posts. I'm also not attempting to join the righteous, just calling you out on something. To which you have gone around in circles making a non-sensical argument.

    Also sorry Orla this thread has gone well off your original topic.
