    Students who do honours English and intend to study journalism in DCU or DIT the following October. These are the ones who actually know their modes of language and how to be short and sweet, but concise and relevant.
    Damn, maybe I should think of a different career choice :p.

    But do continue.. hmm..i've been getting very sarky and mean on boards..i should eat more ice cream...

    Okay, we both have different experiences so... I know a lot of spoilt skater brats&punks all of whom have decided to adopt American as the first language of the People's Independent Republic of Dunshaughlin. There's no need to talk like you're on The OC because you wear a Ramones t-shirt and you're from Meath, sorry folks...

    Under 16 basketball? Yeah but did Mels, Joeys, Pats or Michaels ever think they were the cream of the crop in society because daddy drove a Merc on country roads or because they happened to be good at football, soccer or hurling?

    I haven't read the times guy...But i wasn't complaining about the guy in the indo for being "contraversial". I was complaining cos he's a dick.. there's a difference.

    Haha, yeah... in fairness, if you want controversial journalism don't read the exam diary, read Diarmuid Doyle in the Sunday Trib... pope batterings, rte bashings, he's the antichrist, but a great journalist. I admire him. Not so popular with alot of the readers because of his views. Who knows, maybe Mr McG will go on to similar fame and fortune despite his failure to win popularity among his peers at this early stage in his career... I'm actually going to give him a second chance this week! But the first signs of a pompous ignorant git, as many of you claim he has been acting since I gave up reading on day two, will lose the Indo their money forevermore...not even for Sudoku will I buy their paper!!!

    Nah it was Gaelic. They`re in a grouping lower than Pats though.

    hehe! Well here in Pats we certainly don`t think we are the cream of society because we know we are pure boggers/scumbags. However we do think we are pure class at gaelic (3/4 All Ireland in 6 yrs or something), thats why I think the guys screwed it up this year, they thought they`d walk all over everyone.

    Note: Was`nt on the gaelic team, im a rugger bugger.

    Actually it was tongue in cheek and not something i actually believe.. (although i am tested by girls talking about attractive politicians like they talk about actors)

    but, regardless of whether or not i meant what i said, you're an annoying airhead. Do continue your good work making the rest of us look better. and for gods sake you have a whole keyboard.. stop texting it in. And NO. If it was a stupid girl writing the article and she was pretentious and annoying i would most certainly NOT say "i'll put up with her stupid and anger inducing journalism because i find her physically attractive" (or "lol, ill listen 2 her cos shes a ride")

    I'll leave it at that... i'm off to go keep women oppressed (i've got 3 of them on a treadmill powering my house)

    (edit: and no, there's nothing wrong with saying someones good looking... in moderation. Being Shallow and talking about someone's appearance/image like it's an important or decisive factor in whether or not the person is interesting, worth listening to, a good human being etc is the bull**** that pisses me off and yes, i think girls are guilty of it on a wider scale than guys.)


    okay...i think the fact that i read the paper and actually know some stuff like suffragette movement proves im not an airhead. it was actually originally ment as a joke i agree with you the guy is a faggott. also what has the way i type got to do with anything? ( btw im trying to write properly so as not too annoy you further.) im not being shallow i was just commenting the guy is good looking. i actually never judge people on looks which because you dont know me you didnt know and if you are one of those nice people like myself who believs in giving everyone a shot regardless of looks, intelligence etc you wouldn have called me an "annoying airhead" so your edit is EXTREMELY hypocritical. and no lads are way more guilty than girls and i am basing this on personal expierience guys tend to base there opinions of girls on their bodies(i do realise girls do that too)but also on the size of their chest and i think most people c would agree.

    bdw: what politicians are hot? ive yet to see one.....oh look at that i know things about politics god i am soo blonde i tried to buy curtains for my computer you know(didnt need em cos of all the tip-x i had on the screen though)

    edit:your not exactly "passive" are you?

    the agressive is implied =).

    anyway "airhead" has nothing whatsoever to do with looks... it means what it says. A head of air... i didn't bring your hair colour into question either. I apologise for being snappy..must be all this leaving certness...

    unfortunately that was a typo but it was the general meaning passive was saying how girls base opinion on looks more than guys and i disagree an i think chest size is the perfect example. thank you trishe point proven and im sure most girls have had a similar expierience!! randomfella in agreement not ALL lads are like that just the majority and thanks gor sharing about the ass thing more of a height thing pour moi!!oh lordy will (the majority of)u guys ever learn!! ;)

    Politics is simply showbiz for ugly people, as the saying goes.

    Stop bickering children, everybody is shallow to some degree - you're all undermining your own arguments with sentimental bilgewater like this: "who believs in giving everyone a shot regardless of looks, intelligence etc". What a load of bull - especially as several sentences earlier you decided to define the guy as a '****' based on an ARTICLE. An ARTICLE. You haven't even met him - yet you're willing to state an opinion on him as a whole. Mmm, 'giving everybody a chance'... honestly, children in Gary Glitter's house get better chances...

    I could just turn that around by switching the genders and it would be talking about two people I know. It's a two-way street dearie.

    point taken i do realise ive just judged journalist guy(whats his name)on what he's written and gave out to passive for doing the same thing!sincerest apologies to him...seriously whats his name?but i think being a journalist leaves you open to that kind of criticism and if your going to open the can of worms on juding people like him you dont know, your getting into the whole how can we judge celebrities/politicians and other public figures on the perception we get of them from the media...blah blah blah. but yes ok that was very hypocritical-gary glitter?interesting comparison.... :confused:

    yes she is going but its a grad wouldnt you??
    and yes im sure girls do it too........im not why wud u think that?? :cool:]
    and yes lads are full of sh!t they will promise you the world if they think they'll get something i.e. sex in return and im nearly positive most girls dont QED
