Looking forward to that one, the first Kick Ass was really good.

And now for some toast!

Nice idea!

Kick Ass 2...with Jim Carey being silly.

Coke muffins sound odd.

A what? Is that somethig you get in Amsterdam :pac:

And looking forward to Kick Ass 2 as well

I tried watching Kick Ass last weekend, made it about an hour in and turned it off, thought it was muck.

Pem, please explain about the coca cola muffins, I am intrigued.

But Lyndsy Fonseca does help ease the pain a little..

Pembily

Don't knock the muffins till you try them. It's a Nigella Lawson recipe.

I see your steak and ice cream and raise some vodka & red bull and cheese & onion hunky dorys. Ice cream sounds tempting, though I'm dying for a tayto sandwich.

Comic con most of the day (met some boardsies out there too), boozing now. Life of a student, eh? :pac:

How'ye lads!

Touché. I've never had a tayto sandwich.

Ah, Lyndsy Fonseca. That woman is absolutely stunning. I rewatched Kick Ass a few months ago, so the memory should be OK for the sequel when it comes out shortly.

I can't decide who I want to see lose this match. I don't particularly want to see either Cork or Dublin win.

Pembily

Ah I'm shouting for Dublin as a Daly v Fitzy final would be interesting!

The Black Oil

Ah, well, Nigella's ham in coke recipe is great.



Back from the bog. :pac:

Kev.OC

Well, I'm now €6 poorer. Stupid Cork.

Liam McPoyle

Just booked 4 nights in Lisbon with herself for November, looking forward to it.

There is an awesome looking zoo and Oceania park there!

Awkward moment..
Came into the Dining Room earlier, mum was watching Fair City. A scene comes on where a few auld wans stick on a dvd and next thing all you can hear is this cheesy porno music. Obviously they had been mistakenly given a porno. (Hilarity and mortification ensues among the auld wans)
As soon as I heard the music I blurted out without really thinking about it: "Hah, porn music!"
A few seconds of silence pass (bar the prono music from Fair City!) then Mum asks: "And how do you know what porn music sounds like?"
I had no real choice so I responded with.."Do you really want to go down that road now Mother?"..
Awkward!!!
She saw the funny side and laughed!:pac:

cantdecide

On a slightly similar kind of note, I was at a wedding yesterday of two old friends and the groom's dad was one of many that spoke a few words. He spoke about the time he sat my mate down when he was a pup and said "Okay, Kevin, I know this is going to be awkward but it's time we spoke about the birds and the bees.". To which my mate replied. "Okay Dad, what do you want to know?".

Jaysus I can't watch TV with me dad in the room without that feckin' Durex ad coming on awks

Each time you walk past the dining room and hear music you should go 'typical. Porn music at this hour - RTE!!1111!'

My mam will just want the channel changed if something like that comes on, I won't even watch Game of Thrones or Spartacus if she's at home, there's no point!

CastorTroy

I'm the same if at home and I'm in the living room with my parents while they're watching tv. If nudity or a sex scene comes on, that's when I suddenly show great interest in my phone or tablet or whatever's handy to feign lack of interest in naked women. And about a minute later, if expecting a similar scene later on, I just conveniently leave the room just so the same awkwardness isn't repeated.

Liam McPoyle

Ahh Monday, you horrible bitch master.

Morning folks.

ToxicPaddy

morning/afternoon.. 3 day week for me this week.. yay \0/

CastorTroy

Just wondering, you know how crazy people tend to drill a hole in their head to let the voices out? Do you think it would work to get this One Direction song out of my head?

miamee

Listening to some loud, angry music should help

How'd the interview go or is it later today? Keep forgetting about KickAss2 - has alot to live up to but looking forward to seeing it.

CastorTroy

I hope to go see Kick Ass 2 next week. Already read the comic and the Hit Girl comic which basically fills the gap between the 2.

Interview went really well thanks, Not sure how I feel about accepting the position though.

Liam McPoyle

Is it an internal role ZN or a different company?

CastorTroy

While watching an episode of Power Rangers today, as you do, I was thinking Imagine if bad guys in movies turned into giants when they were beaten. We could have John McClane taking on a Nakatomi Plaza sized Hans Gruber

Get to work in our new office tomorrow doing networking stuff - very basic stuff but still, happy to be away from people bugging me

Few minor little things wrong with it, but no glaring problems with consistency/physics. It's not going to win any Oscars, but it'll keep you entertained for a few hours.

I gave up on trailers after The Dark Night Rises. The trailer essentially showed all the film. Bane collapses the football pitch in the trailer, and then when I went to see the film rather than thinking "Wow, he just collapsed a pitch!" it was just "Oh, that's where that fits in."


I get to drive up and down to Sligo today. I wouldn't mind if it was in my old car, but instead I'll be in the mother's 1.4L Punto, and I'm not exactly a slow driver. I just look at it as me helping the car to stretch it's legs a bit. :pac:

Pepe LeFrits

The north American black-out, 10 years today. Walking home from downtown Toronto, free food in restaurants, cooking by candlelight and streaking.

Sniff. Memories.

The Black Oil

Oh, I was reading about that yesterday, and remember some of the coverage at the time. Didn't realise it was Canada as well.

The Black Oil

Kitten closed her account. That's a pity.

Hello, weekend.

Panthro

Hey Kitten, if you're reading this..."Fooooooook you!!!"....:mad:
(I am of course just kidding, sorry to see that Kitten has closed her account, was a good contributor round these parts.)

Taz Mania is on telly, good times!:D

Yup, trailers are getting worse imo - even Skyfall, the teaser trailer was all you needed, 2mins of awesome and had me dying to go see it, second trailer gave away a good bit and annoyed me

How'd the drive go btw?

Got my car serviced today, they did a serious job on it, like driving a cloud around the place
