    My son being born - I was on my own, when I was told to push, I asked the nurse where is everybody? and she said ' its not like the movies love just me and you'

    My mother sitting me down to tell me a neighbour had just passed away - my mam had taken care of her while she had cancer

    My Dad leaving, his funeral six years later, his funeral and my step dad allowing my mam to mourn her dead husband on his shoulder - respect earned there

    the moment i saw my now partner for the first time and our first date - year later

    My dad bringing me to school and how small my hand felt in his giant hands and how safe i felt

    Getting knocked down by a car when i was 4. Was only in hospital a week but got what felt like a years supply worth of sweets.

    My first holy communion as it was the most money I ever got in a day. 640 pounds!!!

    Watching my first film in the cinema which was Batman.

    My first ****. Discovered it by accident but by god i never forget the terror as i didn't know what that wet stuff squirting out of my dick was. Thought it was blood and that it was gonna be embarrassing having to get medical attention and explain what happened! :o

    First time drinking. Downed a naggin of vodka at 14 before a teenage disco. Was well and truly covered in puke that night.

    Losing my virginity to a one night stand in Belfast. Well i shat myself when i sneaked out of the house and saw loyalist murals everywhere. Even tried to put on a Northern Irish accent when hailing a cab back to the hotel :o

    Man Utd winning the Champions League in 1999.

    Snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef and ****ting myself at seeing reef sharks :o

    Being told i was going to be a dad and holding my son for the first time.

    Narrowly avoiding getting crushed by a truck and ending up in a ditch instead without a scratch to myself and my car.

    I wish Biggins was still around... He had some great yarns, perfect for this thread.

    Sometimes, I feel film, when done well, can provide some amazing, heart-stopping moments.

    Seeing Terminator 2 when I was all of 10 years of age was unforgettable. What an incredible film.

    Also sitting through and watching 'Irreversible' on my own was pretty shocking.

    Film can also paint really grim pictures of the reality of some things like death. There is another French film called 'ne dis a personne' (Tell No One). It has a scene in it which hit me like a tonne of bricks - an incredible scene really that highlights the ignominy of death.

    So because he may not be from Manchester hes not allowed to have that moment in his life no?

    What about all the people stating 9/11? Do they have to have some connection with the event or be an American so that they may not forget that moment?
    What are you, his ****ing boyfriend?

    Im sorry Gav, but I had to laugh at that haha :p

    Lubing up as we speak!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,466 ✭✭✭Clandestine


    "Important" events, kissing a girl for the first time etc. just don't seem very important to me. Maybe because I'm always so aloof and I focus on the present so much that events that occurred, important or not, just don't seem to faze or conjure up many emotions in me. I won't forgot the positive times in my life, but sometimes it feels as if it wouldn't make a difference whether or not they happened. Is this bad?

    No depressing ones from me tonight!

    The day I found out I was gonna be an aunty for the first time! - 6 weeks later she arrived :D

    They're not true mates unless you've scored them.

    As the title says. Something that will stay with you till the day you die.

    My dad telling me he was still my dad but that he wouldn't be around anymore and that he was moving to South America to be with a woman he had met.

    First time ever downloading porn.
    The wait that felt like an eternity for it to slowly download line by line down the screen and constantly freaked my mum would walk in.

    The time my mum found porno mags I had hidden in the sleeve of Michael Jacksons Bad vinyl.

    Waking up in a hotel room, at a wedding, to my then girlfriend riding a bloke in a bed across from me.
    That hurt.

    Learning to drive.

    Many more but they are the most memorable, what have you got?

    Jasus, reading that back it makes me out to be a right depressed cnut.
    I'm not, I'm always smiling on the inside and outside.

    Hats off to you Keith. You may be a bit of an underdog but everyone roots for the underdog. Respect, old boy!

    Shitting myself in High Infants because it was a better option than using the disgusting toilets in the school.

    Being shot at by an unhinged neighbour when I was seven.

    My first day at the big school.

    The careers guidance teacher saying I'd never amount to anything (visionary man.:pac:)

    Being sick over a RUC woman the night Ireland lost to Holland in a Euro 96 playoff

    Passing my driving test and my first ride on the same day.

    Being told by a college tutor I was a waste of space and would never amount to anything.

    Walking out on my first job (after my boss told me I was useless and would never amount to anything.:pac:)

    The last words I said to my mother before she died.:(

    Loads more but I can't think of them now.

    Well, what did you amount to then, you Backwards Bollix? :pac:

    I moved back to Japan just 18 days after the Fukushima disaster. I left my wife and 2 kids (4 and 3 months at the time) in Ireland because we were'nt sure what Japan would be like and how things would pan out.

    I flew out of Shannon, and there were a lot of US military there, flying to Iraq /Afghanistan. I remember one of them asking me about toys he could buy to send to his own baby daughter. I remember thinking that my heading to Japan wasn't as dangerous as where he was heading.

    Then 2 months later, the rest of the family joined me. The wait for them at the arrivals area of Narita airport, and then seeing them, was truly a moment I will never forget.
