    I was saying that mods tend to get away with more than regular users. I've seen people get banned for "lighthearted remarks" on boards before.

    This. Very true.

    Not in C&H though.

    No, I was just saying that your comment seemed as though it was meant to belittle me. Maybe that wasn't so, but tats how it seemed to me. I was saying that mods tend to get away with more than regular users. I've seen people get banned for "lighthearted remarks" on boards before. It wasn't meant as an attack on you, and I'm genuinely sorry if it seemed that way. From my experience of boards, I do think that mods tend to get away with more than ordinary members, but I wasn't accusing you of abusing the rules, so I do not agree that I was being immature.
    Sorry if my comment came across wrong as well, that's the problem with text some things come across as bitchier than intended.
    I know some forums are pretty strict and mods can act like dicks, but I like to think that this place is fairly laid back, even if that does sound a bit like I'm say...

    It's grand. :) I agree, although I'm not very familiar with this forum, it does seem a lot fairer than some of the others.

    I hate sh!t mcflurry makers. Good mcflurry maker people are a rare breed it seems.

    "OMG that's sooo random"

    When people say this or something similar it's like nails on a chalkboard! Your day wasn't random, the fact that you saw your friend in town wasn't random, saying something like "amazeballs" isn't random and your night out in town wasn't random in fact it was planned and thought out, which is, in fact, the opposite of random. :mad:

    /rant :pac:

    I dislike the way that 'best of' lists hate December.

    The word banter or any of its variations

    The expression, "Bud", as in "All right Bud" et cetera. In a word; awfull. :o

    When someone say "It doesn't feel a bit like Christmas". I hear it every Christmas, even when it's non-stop Christmas songs on the radio, decorations EVERYWHERE, and a Santy on every street corner (ok I'm exaggerating here, but you know what I mean!). ;-)

    What they mean is, "It doesn't feel like Christmas did when I was a kid" because no amount of Christmas songs and decorations will make up for the fact that they're old and cynical now.

    Yes true. The thought just crossed my mind that maybe I'm becoming old and cynical! :(:)

    The phrase "A man has a _____" or it's derivatives, including "A man won't ____", "A woman will ____", etc, which seem to be popping up on my Facebook newsfeed far too often...

    I hate the fact that there are people who take pictures of food they just bought. It doesn't make sense. People who do this are wrong.

    The human race in general to be honest... oh well except for all you guys ;)

    Queuing to get on a bus, completely blocking those getting off. I've now resorted to plowing straight through the middle of the pack.

    When Americans (or anyone else, but mostly Americans, American celebrities at that) say to people they barley know 'Love you guys!' :mad: Love is not a word to just throw around Goddammit! :P

    People with egos who think whatever they say or do actually matters.
    Good luck to you in another year or few when you realise nobody gives a shit.

    People who wear Ramones t-shirts, I wouldnt mind if it was a genuine fan obviously but theres just so many people who wear these to look "different" purely because they're in every Dunnes Stores/Penneys in the country..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,014 ✭✭✭Colm!


    I was actually going to make a post about Ramones shirts eventually. They're EVERYWHERE

    One day I'm gonna strike up a conversation about how they feel regarding the conflict which existed between Johnny and Joey and they're gonna be like "Derp"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭jefreywithonef


    Someone gave me a Ramones t-shirt as a gift. Luckily I do enjoy the band and their influence. Singing "Beat On The Brat" out loud isn't recommended.

    I posted a comment of a similar nature on a "friend's" status once. Saying that the status was idiotic and served no purpose, and that if they actually cared there was any number of charities who would be only too glad to accept their volunteer work or donations.

    I got attacked and was told "u mst like cancer so u dickhead if u tink this status is stupid".

    Insta-block.

    + 1 million, Because posting a ridiculous status looking for likes is going to make a difference, then when someone points it out to them they come to the logical conclusion that said person is an evil menace promoting cancer.....*sigh*
