    It was my 9th time.

    Had Soccer training on Tuesday, the field had been cut that day and it was hot that evening whilst we trained so there were lots of midges. My arms and legs are currently covered in hives as a result and it's gotten to the point where I hardly want to go outside. I'm dying with itch and if a piece of clothing even slightly rubs off my legs it get's agitated and itchy. I've put cream on them but it's effect is minimal. Dear God kill me.

    I tend to catch a bit of an itch when the sun comes out as well, and I sweat a lot. It's not good. However, it's not as bad as I have gotten older. I find I don't burn as easily in the sun as I used to. Probably a lot of that is down to the fact that the WWE Network now exists.

    Heat rash, why oh why....:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,166 ✭✭✭Stereomaniac


    I've missed work with the thing earlier in the year and everything. It's not easy being so pale.

    Walked around temple bar yesterday shouting "Will sell girlfriend for AC/DC ticket!" Unfortunately no takers so I couldn't go. Anyone see them?

    The shirts on Pro Wrestling Tees are a bit too big for my liking, would it be dickish of me to buy knockoffs?

    Yeah it would, big time. Just buy smaller sizes! Don't support the a**holes who rip off their work.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    I'm 5'6 :( Unfortunately my height kinda prevents me from buying adult sizes from abroad, I'm fine at home.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    Oh by the way some of you may remember I mentioned how my brother was going for the manager position for the Junior A Soccer team, he got the position and we've started our pre-season training twice a week as of this week (Tuesdays and Fridays). Hopefully he can take us places this season :)

    So Reddit seems to have gone into revolt following the sudden firing of Victoria, who seems to have been the main liaison for people doing IAMAs and the mods there. Seems that after a host of problems continued to develop, the mods have snapped and now half the major subreddits are down...

    I wouldn't feel remotely upset if that site just died altogether.

    I like reddit but I don't follow the whole behind the scenes stuff whatsoever (similar to here). Just like here there's really useful forums and some absolute arse on there. What I do find hilarious is how much reddit gets slagged by people who seem to browse it loyally. I notice it especially amongst people I follow on Twitter yet they'll be the first to screencap/rob interesting stuff on there. I dunno though, hatewatchers in any walk of life fascinate me. There's an underlying depression there for sure. I might do a thesis on it someday.

    I visit Reddit as much as I do boards, and use it as a fairly good news aggregator. Soccer, Television, Movies, Rooster Teeth, Red Devils, aww....some good sources for general news.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    I have been on Reddit once. It hurt my head. Not for me at all

    Reddit was excellent about 3-4 years ago, before all those childish rage comics flooded it and attracted the kids and mainstream. Now it's full of a lot of kids, pretentious teens and twenty uear olds who look down on people wih different opinions than theirs and unfunny posts.

    After they killed off their completion a few years back such as Digg and 9gag, all those awful users from those sites have come to reddit and ruined lots of subs.

    The mob mentality is crazy on that site though, as shown by this sad "revolt".

    Still some great subs on it though.
