    Nope, I'm not, so no idea what you're on about. :pac:

    I'm allergic to cow's milk, so haven't tried them, but from what I've heard from other people, nobody seems to like them!

    any plans for more ink?

    Yup. I have plans for a few things, two things mainly at the moment, but have to save, 'cause I also have a holiday to save for!

    Marty, obviously. :p Nah, that's a tough one. I don't know really. Probably my younger sister because she's so bloody hyperactive that it'd never get boring. Then again, I'd never get sex. Can I bring Marty and my sister? :pac:

    -your house is burning down you can and you can only save one posession. what?

    Photo of my grandad. It's the only one I have of him and he died when I was 7, so I find it difficult to remember a lot about him until I see his photo. :)

    -what turned you away from religion??

    erm.... That's probably the most personal question so far, so I'm gonna be a bit vague here. I was, for want of a better word, attacked by an ex boyfriend and subsequently suffered severe problems afterwards. While loads of other bad shít had happened to people I loved and to myself prior to that, that attack was the straw that broke the camel's back.

    I know they say that god sends bad shít your way to test you, but there's only so much bad shít you can take before you realise that the concept of God is a heap of crap. I've never been happier since I lost my faith tbh.

    Thanks! :)

    Do you believe that woodchucks can chuck wood?

    If yes, how do you feel about the negative stereotype portrayed in tongue twisters?

    If no, why do you buy into the facist government propaganda and what will it take for you to see the truth?

    While discussing literature over a few beverages myself and a friend decided that the
    appearance of the red ball
    in Run Spot Run, was one of the truly great swerve moments. What would be your favourite "oh sheet, I didn't see that coming" moments? Choose from anything, films, books, w/e.

    Wtf @ the first three questions? I'm not even gonna attempt to answer those. :pac:

    For the last question, I'm not gonna say what happens in the film because I know Marty wants to see it, but in the film Trance, the whole ending was a complete mind fcuk, I didn't expect any of it. :)

    Haven't seen that, must a look see.

    I don't really know about the first questions, just popped into my head. But it's obvious from your silence that you've bought into the governments story.

    Obviously you're way too young to remember the 80's, but would you like to have been in your teens in the 80's? Or if not then, what decade would you like to grow up in, if any?

    I have a wish/fantasy to be able to go back in time to the late 1800's in the States, be an outlaw or cowboy, and live life for a while there. Where/when would you like to go and why?

    I was born in the 80s. :p I'd love to have grown up in the 80s, it was basically the same as today (poverty) but with awful clothes and deadly music, win win! :D

    I know I'm not supposed to ask questions back, but how come you'd wanna be an outlaw or cowboy? :)

    I'd love to be part of the gentility or aristocracy in England in the 1815-1823 region. I LOVE the Regency era, it fascinates me. :) Plus, I'd get to wear a corset every day without my mother telling me I look like a whore. :pac:

    Aye, I grew up in it, went from my SKA phase to my metal phase in the 80's. God be with the days of drainpipe jeans, grandad shirts and biker jackets!! :pac:

    TBH, I don't know. It's just something that's always been in my head, but I don't know why. Maybe it's just the danger of it, having "Wanted" signs up everywhere, gunfights, saloons etc. I don't know....just think it's cool. :cool:

    Yeah, if I had a second choice, that'd be it too (without the corsets of course! LOL)

    Favourite cartoon from your childhood - Animals of Farthing Wood, Inspector Gadget, Thundercats, Biker Mice from Mars, The Flintstones, The Jetsons.........(sigh, they just don't make 'em how they used to :( )

    Most embaressing/cheesy/poppy song on your recent ipod playlist?

    If you could wish back any great mind from the dead - artist, scientist, philanthropist, politician - who would it be and why?

    Could you survive a zombie apocalypse?

    Perfume of choice at the moment?

    Most annoying rule/curfew you had when you were younger?

    The only two of those I watched were Animals of Farthing Wood (and I fcuking HATED it!) and The Flintstones! My favourite cartoon from my childhood was Pokemon, duh. :p

    Most embaressing/cheesy/poppy song on your recent ipod playlist?

    I don't own an ipod. :pac: But the most embarrassing/cheesy song I have at the moment is probably 'Love is Easy' by McFly. BUT THEY PLAY UKULELE :D

    If you could wish back any great mind from the dead - artist, scientist, philanthropist, politician - who would it be and why?

    Hmmm.... Probably Einstein. I'd love to chat about science and find out how a dyslexic person had so much drive and ambition, when so many people today struggle with it, even with all of the help available. :)

    Could you survive a zombie apocalypse?

    Jesus no. I'm a fcuking wimp!

    Perfume of choice at the moment?

    Diamonds by Armani. It's been my favourite for god only knows how long. :D

    Most annoying rule/curfew you had when you were younger?

    Up til I was 16, I had to be in bed by 9pm and home by 7pm. :o :pac:

    Thank you. :)

    More people than I can count. I'll try remember as many as I can -

    Johnathon Rhys-Myers (tosser).
    Jeremy Clarkson (sound).
    All the members of Good Charlotte (sound).
    All the members of Primordial. (vocalist was a cnut, the rest were sound).
    All the members of Firewind (the drummer was a wanker to my friend, but absolutely lovely to me, still have his drumstick and a signed t shirt. :D ).
    All the members of Stratovarius.
    Colin Farrel (sound).
    Brendon Carroll or whatever the fcuk his name is (biggest arsehole I've ever met).
    Ozzy Osbourne (book signing, he was sound).
    I know there's loads more, but can't remember off the top of my head. I'll post more as I remember them. :)


    what celebrity would you most like to meet?

    Johnny Depp. He wouldn't get away in one piece. ;)

    mammy's home cooked dinner or nice restaurant?

    My mammy doesn't cook! I cook for myself, but definitely home cooked food. I love nice restaurants, but can't beat some proper home cooked food. And I don't mean spuds and meat, I mean nice food. :pac:

    what would be your dream job?

    Answered that one earlier on, pay attention mate. :p Criminal Psychologist specialising in child sexual abuse cases. :)

    Thanks! :)

    Clowns in general! I have no idea why tbh. I was never afraid of them as a kid, then when I hit about 17, bang, I developed a fear of clowns and people I don't know wearing masks. Like, my friends wearing masks, fine, I don't mind that. But strangers, I freak out. I scare too easily. :pac:

    In my early teens I randomly developed a fear of falling down escalators for no reason. I would not go on an escaltor, I was terrified. Well not of those flat slanted ones but the step ones. Even now I kind of hesitate before getting on. It's strange how phobias appear from no where.

    What the scariest thing you've ever done?

    Would ever skydive/bungee jump etc.?

    Do you have fond memories of school or could you not wait to get out of it?

    Chicken curry or chickpea curry?

    Do you have regrets or do you feel they are pointless?

    Why the hell did I drink vodka and whiskey last night?

    I might come back when I feel less hungover....

    Sorry for missing yours, I just automatically checked the last page! :o

    A battle against Ekkans, Meowth and Charizard, who do you choose (can't pick the same Pokemon)!

    Charizard. I hate Meowth and Ekkans. :pac:

    Were your parents v strict about things growing up? (my mam was but there was just the two of us. She did the best she could and obvs I appreciate it all now, even though at the time I was a cnut about things that peeved my teenage self off!)

    Strict isn't the word. Strict curfews, to the point where we had to time our watches to our mother's watch because for every minute late we were, we lost an hour of 'going out' time the next day. Grounded for 3 months at a time, if we so much as cursed. Not allowed have boyfriends til we were 17 (but none of us paid any heed to that rule :pac: ), I was force fed meat when I was a vegetarian (even though I paid for my own food!), if I got one B on an exam instead of an A, I was subjected to a 2 hour long lecture about how I needed to work harder (I literally could not please my folks unless I was getting straight As. Thankfully I almost always got all As). Loads more, but not going to go into it! They've calmed down now, I'm allowed do whatever the fcuk I want since I was about 17.

    Favourite snack food?

    Carrot sticks and hummus. Om nom nom nom :D

    Dream holiday destination of money was no object?

    The Seychelles. And I'm going in October, fcuk yeah! :D All paid for, too. :D

    It's breakfast time so I'll be back wi more

    Thank you :)

    I'll answer the rest tonight after work. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,921 ✭✭✭✭hdowney


    You were meant to pick three pokemon to fight Ekkans, Meowth and Charizard!!!!! :P

    I'm gong to Cyprus in october :D HOLIDAYS!!!

    Computer nerd yay or nay?

    How many hours a day do you think you spend on boardS?

    What the scariest thing you've ever done?

    I don't do scary things! The scariest for me was taking on a junkie scumbag that had been trying to attack my sister. That was terrifying, ended up in a physical fight in the middle of my local shopping centre!

    Would ever skydive/bungee jump etc.?

    Nope, never. I'm terrified of heights. :o

    Do you have fond memories of school or could you not wait to get out of it?

    I liked school. I was popular, had a good social life, lots of friends, straight As, no issues really. I was bullied pretty badly by a couple of people, but I moved past that years ago and all in all, I liked school.

    Chicken curry or chickpea curry?

    Chickpea curry, I fcuking LOVE chickpeas. :D

    Do you have regrets or do you feel they are pointless?

    I try not to have regrets, but I can't help it. There are always going to be things I wish I did differently, but I try not to dwell on them.

    Why the hell did I drink vodka and whiskey last night?

    Because vodka is wonderful, and whiskey is nice depending on what one you drink. :D

    I might come back when I feel less hungover....

    Thank you. :)

    What, me? I'm a complete computer nerd. I love coding and mod/admin on every single forum site I use, ffs. :o

    How many hours a day do you think you spend on boardS?

    Probably about 2 or 2 and a half. I pop in for a few minutes here and there during the day, and spend about an hour on it at night. Not too bad. When I was unemployed, it was like 10 hours a day. :pac:

    Thank you! :)
