    I love you Rich. I know you're a lesbian and our love can never be, but I still love you.

    I did Longley, Kavanagh, Rich and Boland. Saw Kavanagh and was so happy I got a boner legit

    Eliot, you long winded bastard you saved my life.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30 Implosiony


    Eliot was my main player. He's so interesting and stands out the most = easy to learn. Had Yeats prepared, and ye all convinced me to prepare Boland too.

    Anyway, Eliot was fine, had all 4 poets covered basically anwyway :P

    Lear now on the other hand... *grumbles*

    'In the room the students come and go saying boland is all that had to know'


  • Registered Users Posts: 260 ✭✭uncle-mofo


    King Lear was quite the overwhelming question.

    Take a risk and it'll pay off - that's why i backed yeats' who actually was heavily tipped...

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    Go on Yeats!


  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭FredBaby!


    nearly had a heart attack when i realised that Boland wasnt on but i think i'm better off as i was able to go for a nice little feminist rant during my Rich essay. Happy out!


  • Registered Users Posts: 656 ✭✭✭Victoria.


    3/4 of my men came up! :D
    I'm so happy I could jump out a window, can't even study geog now!

    Come on Eliot, I knew you wouldn't let me down! :D

    Gamble paid off, didn't even look at Boland or Rich!

    Ah Kavanagh, you are in indeed Epic


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 834 ✭✭✭Reillyman


    Yeats you legend! Thanks for all the tension between the real world you lived in and the ideal world you imagined!:D:D:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 vicksterchick


    Yeats, you grumpy b*****d, thanks for being there when I needed you the most. <3:D

    2 questions...First of all ya know the way it was spelled " yeats's " is it supposed to be " yeats' " or is that my imagination? And does it make sense to talk about september 1913 in todays yeats q? :)

    xXxXx

    Well, I did anyway. :p

    Yeah, I sort of slipped it in when I was talking about his disgust with the lack of romantics left in Ireland (I was in the middle of proving a point about his hatred of imperfection, it made sense at the time).

    It's "Yeats's" Because Yeats is one syllable.

    For the second question, I wrote about it anyway. Basically I said about Romantic Ireland being dead and gone in the real world but in the ideal world he wants Romantic Ireland to be alive... I don't know if that's right I'm a pure BS'er.
