    I'm sure no one will mind you taking the next go Banjo. Apart from maybe that Vampire person you mention :pac:

    I'm not angling for a go - I got the last one wrong, fair and square. Those orange sunglasses didn't look polarised from where I was crouching. Maybe if I'd bought more expensive binoculars, or picked a tree with a clearer angle....

    1) I only just found this thread
    2) I'm a nerd
    3) My car is silver

    1!

    I think you like being a nerd and you've given someone here a lift before so the car thing is verifiable!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    2)
    I bet you've quantified it and while you may be borderline, technically you're a geek, spaz or dork.

    I'll add to this and say playing WW definitely qualifies as a nerdy hobby so nerdiness is pretty much a given for most of us

    Ah shure to round it out I'll give a guess at 3 as the lie.

    I'd say your car is a different colour, but I'm probably way wrong :P

    Correctamundo!

    Only just noticed the thread, and posted in it as soon as I'd caught up. Am definitely a nerd (as TB says, I think by definition we all are). Car is dark grey.

    Bahaha.

    If someone else wants a go (TB/Banjo/anyone really), fire ahead :)

    Oh I'm a terrible liar!

    Ok


    I've never seen Home Alone
    I've never seen ET
    I've never seen The Goonies

    Goonies.


    (Edit: because it's the one most seldom on TV, the others you'd surely have caught by now on multiple viewings)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,993 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Oh God I think I know this....

    It's ET isn't it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Home Alone. But in an ironic twist of fate you were actually left home alone and forced to fend for yourself by watching unsuitable movies and assaulting adults with household objects.

    Ding ding ding!

    I have never seen ET all the way through, I know the bike thing cos it's referenced so much in terms of imagery but I don't even really know what the plot is, space things have just never interested me.

    The Goonies I have seen all the way through albeit passively, its not really my jam either.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,993 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Jaysus I'm on fire :)

    Ok I'll give it another shot:


    1. I won an All Ireland medal for a project in the Community Games
    2. I managed my local gaelic football team to a minor (U-18) title
    3. I have awards for regional quizzes with my school from my younger days

    Project in the community games or on the community games?
    I only ask cos I thought community games were athletic endeavours rather than academic

    They USED to be both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    2. Nearly true but You never got the title?

    I see I see!

    I think 2 is true cos you're still involved with the GAA so I'm going to guess 1 is the lie and 3 is true

    Correct. I did represent Sligo at National level for a project in the Community Games however didn't win :(

    Used to be quizzes too but CG was the only National Final my quiz team for my age category never qualified for. Won Local and Regional level for Credit Union, Sligo medals for Cadburys... lost a tie-breaker though to miss out on Community Games finals.

    We did. Took me four years to do it (had basically same team for three years, mainly compiled of under 16s for the first two of them).

    Year three reached league and championship finals, sadly lost both. Year four won championship shield after a replay.

    Not THE title, but a title nonetheless :P

    2 it is.

    Been to lots of concerts but never been to a music festival.
    Watch plenty of foreign language films. Has to be subtitled though not dubbed (can make exception for animated films).
    Seen Avatar and Life of Pi etc, but only in 2d. I've never seen a film in 3d.
