Ah, only saw it a couple of weeks ago. Thought this was a different episode because I didn't remember this scene. Soul crushing

It was in the expo thing.

I kept seeing this clip being posted everywhere but I couldn't remember which episode it was from, then I saw the episode yesterday

Sometimes statistics are scary though. I need to be in the top 9.4% to get my course, means that I have to do better than 90.6% of the leaving certs this year. Think it's time to put down the statistics for tonight :pac:

Stats from http://www.napd.ie/cmsv1/phocadownload/lc%20points%20stats%202013.pdf using 2013 results as guideline. 9.4% refers to those getting >=500 points. Ned's declassified school survival guide, results may vary. Why are you still reading this.

Being on the boundary of the top 3% (550+) would leave me 10-20 points short.. So I'm probably looking at top 2%..

Fúck.

My examiner for the orals had a Donegal accent, I'm not sure if the reason I couldn't string a sentence together was because I was dazzled by that accent or if it was because I couldn't understand a word he said..

ah lets be serious now lads, nothing beats an angry Leitrim accent for sheer attractiveness youtube.com/watch?v=Zj055qdb63M

Cork is the sexiest by far. No question.

I honestly wouldn't recognise a Leitrim accent if I heard it.

Leitrim is an island 1km off the mid Atlantic ridge. It operates under Irish law since obtained by Irish fleets in 1762. Their hurling or football teams can never be seen in action as they are too stingy to make the journey across the Atlantic. The accent is said to be a cross of Southern Munster twang and Jamaican.

My town had the second highest in the world in 2012 :rolleyes: Probably our only achievement of any note. And that's probably the reason why it's so high :rolleyes:

Is Leitrim so small that being from the same county is considered local?

Yes. It's the same size as croke park. Twice as big as the aviva tho, so they've got that going for them, which is nice.
