Weirdos around UCC

    There's a fair few wackos around the place.

    Was going for a piss there the other day and this fella was in the cubicle banging his head off the door singing cam cam cam camelion. He then started throwing things over the door like his bag and toilet paper.

    It be kinda normal if there was someone with him but he was there on his own, when I was leaving the place, he was singing jingle bells.

    A couple of weeks ago I was chasing squirrels when I spotted some strange-looking fellows throwing a frisbee back and forth. It even looked like they were having fun. What weirdos, eh?

    That's just one example though.. that doesn't mean that there are lots of weirdos around.. still tho it sounds pretty funny. Did he come in for his bag after throwing it over?

    The other day there were a couple in the boole computer room. The girl was talking really loud. I gave a "Suuussshhh" without looking at her. She then said to her bf, "did he just sush me... is he retarded?" I then had to do it again.. this time we looked at each other and she stopped. I hope that wasn't you OP. Apparently I'm the retarded one.

    Funny things can happen in the boole when I get bored and starring at pretty girls. Ya man.. the boole is the place to be

    I'm guessing the reason you didn't confront him was because you were in the middle of taking a ****. Its not that there are weirdos around UCC. There are weirdos everywhere.. its just a fact of life

    Jeez I thought he was a lecturer! Middle-aged, grey-waivy hair, approx 5' 8"?! I spent years attending lectures in the ORB and honestly thought he was a lecturer. He would just walk up and down outside the class and often just stand outside looking in. I'd meet him then at other times just standing at the security-desk talking to who-ever was there.

    Unusual character. Never found out for certain what his story was though I wish I had now.

    Someone once told me he was a lecturer but wouldn't they be in their offices during research or correcting stuff.

    I'll ask again.. Did he come in for his bag after throwing it over?

    He threw it out over the door. Not into a cubicle, no he didn't go out for it.

    More a comment on the ignorance of the general student population.

    He is a lecturer alright, very intelligent but a bit odd. I was going to link to his page on the UCC website but there is no photo of him up...
